'''ʿĀṣim b. Bahdala Abi l-Najūd al-Asadī al-Kūfī''' (Arabic:{{ia|عاصم بن بهدلة أبي | '''ʿĀṣim b. Bahdala Abi l-Najūd al-Asadī al-Kūfī''' (Arabic:{{ia|عاصم بن بهدلة أبي النَّجُود الاسدي الکوفي}}; b. ? d. [[127]]/744-5 or [[128]]/745-6) was one of the [[Tabi'un]] and one of the [[Seven Reciters]] of the [[Quran]]. He learned the recital ([[qira'a]]) of the Quran from [[Abu 'Abd al-Rahman al-Sulami]] who had learned the recital of the Quran from [[Imam 'Ali (a)]]. 'Asim presented his recital to [[Zarr b. Hubaysh]] who had learned the recital of the Quran from [['Abd Allah b. Mas'ud]]. Thus, 'Asim transmits the recital of Imam 'Ali (a) from al-Sulami. This is why it is said that his recital of the Quran is the most eloquent one, because it is the authentic reading of the Quran. | ||
After the death of his teacher, Abu 'Abd al-Rahman al-Sulami, 'Asim became the head of the reciters of the Quran and was in charge of teaching the Quran in [[Kufa]]. [[Abu Bakr b. 'Ayyash]] and [[Hafs b. Sulayman]] transmitted his recital of the Quran. Hafs believed that 'Asim’s recital was more accurate. 'Asim’s recital is transmitted to us today by Hafs. Hafs’s transmission of 'Asim’s recital of the Quran is popular and prevalent in most [[Islam]]ic countries. As almost all biographers and scholars maintain, 'Asim was a [[Shi'a]]. | After the death of his teacher, Abu 'Abd al-Rahman al-Sulami, 'Asim became the head of the reciters of the Quran and was in charge of teaching the Quran in [[Kufa]].
