Report 47: ʿAbd Allāh narrated to us; Ahmad ibn Muḥammad ibn Ayyūb narrated to us; Abū Bakr ibn ʿAyyāsh narrated to us, from Abū Isḥāq, from ʿIkrimah, who said:

Abū Bakr—may Allah be pleased with him—said to the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, “O Messenger of Allah, you have gone gray!” He replied, “Sūrah Hūd, al-Wāqiʿah, ʿAmma Yatasaʾalūn (Sūrat an-Nabaʾ), and Idhā ash-Shamsu Kuwwirat (Sūrat at-Takwīr) are what have turned my hair gray.”
