كَانَ عَلِيُّ بْنُ الْحُسَيْنِ ( صلوات الله عليه )  أَحْسَنَ النَّاسِ صَوْتاً بِالْقُرْآنِ وَ كَانَ السَّقَّاءُونَ يَمُرُّونَ فَيَقِفُونَ بِبَابِهِ يَسْمَعُونَ قِرَاءَتَهُ وَ كَانَ أَبُو جَعْفَرٍ ( عليه السلام ) أَحْسَنَ النَّاسِ صَوْتاً .

Sahl Bin Ziyad, from Al Hajjal, from Ali Bin Uqba, from a man, (It has been narrated) from Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup> having said: ‘Ali<sup>asws</sup> Bin Al-Husayn<sup>asws</sup> was of the most beautiful of voices of the people with the (recitation of the) Quran, and the water carriers used to pass by his<sup>asws</sup> door, and they would be pausing at his<sup>asws</sup> door listening to his<sup>asws</sup> recitation, and it was so that Abu Ja’far<sup>asws</sup> was of the most beautiful of voices of the people’.
