Majma al-Zawaid — Hadith 2335

عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - قَالَ : " مَنْ أَمَّ قَوْمًا فَلْيَتَّقِ اللَّهَ وَلْيَعْلَمْ أَنَّهُ ضَامِنٌ مَسْئُولٌ لِمَا ضَمِنَ، فَإِنْ أَحْسَنَ كَانَ لَهُ مِنَ الْأَجْرِ مِثْلُ أَجْرِ مَنْ صَلَّى خَلْفَهُ مِنْ غَيْرِ أَنْ يَنْتَقِصَ مِنْ أُجُورِهِمْ شَيْئًا، وَمَا كَانَ مِنْ نَقْصٍ فَهُوَ عَلَيْهِ " .
رَوَاهُ الطَّبَرَانِيُّ فِي الْأَوْسَطِ وَفِيهِ مُعَارِكُ بْنُ عَبَّادٍ ضَعَّفَهُ أَحْمَدُ وَالْبُخَارِيُّ وَأَبُو زُرْعَةَ وَالدَّارَقُطْنِيُّ ، وَذَكَرَهُ ابْنُ حِبَّانَ فِي الثِّقَاتِ .
Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) narrates this saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him): "Whoever leads people in prayer should fear Allah Almighty and should know that he is a guarantor, and he will be held to account for what he has guaranteed. If he does well, he will receive a reward, as much as the reward of those who prayed behind him, without anything being reduced from their reward; and any shortcoming (on the part of the imam), its burden will be upon him (the imam) alone."
Al-Tabarani recorded it in al-Mu'jam al-Awsat; its chain contains Mu'arik bin Abbad, whom Ahmad, al-Bukhari (may Allah have mercy on him), Abu Zur'ah and al-Daraqutni (may Allah have mercy on him) declared da'if (weak). Ibn Hibban mentioned him in his book al-Thiqat.
