A number of our people have narrated from Sahl ibn Ziyad from Muhammad ibn Sulayman from certain individuals of his people from who has said the following: “Once I said to abu al-Hassan (a.s.) ‘May Allah keep my soul in service for your cause, we hear certain verses of the Holy Quran that we do not have with us as we hear them and we cannot read as good as we receive from you.

Are we committing sins in this matter?’ The Imam said, ‘No, you are not committing any sins, read as you have learned. The one to teach you will come soon.’” ضعيف - Allamah Baqir al-Majlisi (Mirʾāt al-ʿUqūl fī Sharḥ Akhbār Āl al-Rasūl (2/506))
