حَدَّثَنَا هُدْبَةُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا هَمَّامٌ، حَدَّثَنَا قَتَادَةُ، حَدَّثَنَا أَنَسٌ، عَنْ أَبِي مُوسَى ـ رضى الله عنه ـ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ ‏ "‏ مَثَلُ الْمُؤْمِنِ الَّذِي يَقْرَأُ الْقُرْآنَ كَالأُتْرُجَّةِ، طَعْمُهَا طَيِّبٌ وَرِيحُهَا طَيِّبٌ، وَالَّذِي لاَ يَقْرَأُ كَالتَّمْرَةِ، طَعْمُهَا طَيِّبٌ وَلاَ رِيحَ لَهَا، وَمَثَلُ الْفَاجِرِ الَّذِي يَقْرَأُ الْقُرْآنَ كَمَثَلِ الرَّيْحَانَةِ، رِيحُهَا طَيِّبٌ وَطَعْمُهَا مُرٌّ، وَمَثَلُ الْفَاجِرِ الَّذِي لاَ يَقْرَأُ الْقُرْآنَ كَمَثَلِ الْحَنْظَلَةِ، طَعْمُهَا مُرٌّ وَلاَ رِيحَ لَهَا ‏"‏.

English translation
Narrated Abu Musa: The Prophet (ﷺ) said, 'The example of a believer who recites the Qur'an is that of a citron (a citrus fruit) which is good in taste and good in smell. And the believer who does not recite the Qur'an is like a date which has a good taste but no smell. And the example of an impious person who recites the Qur'an is that of Ar-Rihana (an aromatic plant) which smells good but is bitter in taste. And the example of an impious person who does not recite the Qur'an is that of a colocynth which is bitter in taste and has no smell
বাংলা অনুবাদ
আবূ মূসা আশ‘আরী (রাঃ) হতে বর্ণিত। নবী সাল্লাল্লাহু আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম বলেছেনঃ কুরআন তিলাওয়াতকারী ঈমানদারের দৃষ্টান্ত উত্রুজ্জার (কমলালেবু) মত। এর স্বাদও উৎকৃষ্ট এবং সুগন্ধও উৎকৃষ্ট। আর যে মু’মিন কুরআন তিলাওয়াত করে না তার দৃষ্টান্ত যেন খেজুরের মত। এটি খেতে সুস্বাদু বটে, তবে তার কোন সুঘ্রাণ নেই। কুরআন তিলাওয়াতকারী পাপী ব্যক্তিটি সুগন্ধি ফুলের মত। এর সুগন্ধ আছে বটে, তবে স্বাদে তিক্ত। আর যে অতি পাপী হয়ে আবার কুরআনও তিলাওয়াত করে না সে মাকাল ফলের মত। এ ফল স্বাদেও তিক্ত আর এর কোন সুগন্ধ নেই। [৫০২০] (আধুনিক প্রকাশনী- ৭০৩৯, ইসলামিক ফাউন্ডেশন)
