Hadith 597
حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ سِنَانٍ ، وَأَحْمَدُ بْنُ الْفُرَاتِ أَبُو مَسْعُودٍ الرَّازِيُّ الْمَعْنَى ، قَالَا : حَدَّثَنَا يَعْلَى ، حَدَّثَنَا الْأَعْمَشُ ، عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ ، عَنْ هَمَّامٍ ، أَنَّ حُذَيْفَةَ أَمَّ النَّاسَ بِالْمَدَائِنِ عَلَى دُكَّانٍ ، فَأَخَذَ أَبُو مَسْعُودٍ بِقَمِيصِهِ فَجَبَذَهُ ، فَلَمَّا فَرَغَ مِنْ صَلَاتِهِ ، قَالَ : " أَلَمْ تَعْلَمْ أَنَّهُمْ كَانُوا يُنْهَوْنَ عَنْ ذَلِكَ ؟ " ، قَالَ : بَلَى ، قَدْ ذَكَرْتُ حِينَ مَدَدْتَنِي .
Hammam said: Hudhaifah led the people in prayer in al-Mada’in standing on the shop (or a bench). Abu Masud took him by his shirt, and brought him down. When he ( Abu Masud) finished his prayer, he said: Do you not know that they (the people) were prohibited to do so. He said: Yes, I remembered when you pulled me down.
