Ubayy b. Ka'b said: Allaah's Messenger (sallAllaahu alayhi wa sallam) said: O Abu' al-Mundhir, do you know the verse from the Book of Allaah which, according to you, is the greatest? I said: Allaah and His Prophet (sallAllaahu alayhi wa sallam) know best. He again said: Abu'l-Mundhir, do you know the verse from the Book of Allaah which, according to you, is the greatest? I said: Allaah, there is none worthy of worship (in truth) but He, the Living, the Eternal. Thereupon he struck me on my breast and said: May knowledge be pleasant for you, O Abu'l-Mundhir!
