Sahih Bukhari

Narrated Alqama:We were sitting with Ibn Masud when Khabbab came and said, ""O Abu `Abdur-Rahman! Can these young fellows recite Qur'an as you do?"" Ibn Mas`ud said, ""If you wish I can order one of them to recite (Qur'an) for you ."" Khabbab replied, ""Yes. ""Ibn Mas`ud said, ""Recite, O 'Alqama!"" On that, Zaid bin Hudair, the brother of Ziyad bin Hudair said, (to Ibn Mas`ud), ""Why have you ordered 'Alqama to recite though he does not recite better than we?"" Ibn Mas`ud said, ""If you like, I would tell you what the Prophet (ﷺ) said about your nation and his (i.e. 'Alqama's) nation."" So I recited fifty Verses from Sura-Maryam. `Abdullah (bin Mas`ud) said to Khabbab, ""What do you think (about 'Alqama's recitation)?"" Khabbab said, ""He has recited well."" `Abdullah said, ""Whatever I recite, 'Alqama recites."" Then `Abdullah turned towards Khabbab and saw that he was wearing a gold ring, whereupon he said, ""Hasn't the time for its throwing away come yet?"" Khabbab said, ""You will not see me wearing it after today,"" and he threw it away.
