(باب أول ما فعل ومن فعله)Who Was the First to Perform Certain Actions?
Hadith 38733
٣٨٧٣٣ - حدثنا السهمي حدثنا حميد قال: سألت الحسن: من أول من خطب قبل الصلاة؟ فقال: عثمان بن عفان صلى بالناس ثم خطبهم فرأى ناسًا كثيرًا لم يدركوا الصلاة، ففعلوا ذلك (١).
Hazrat Humaid says that I asked Hasan, "Who was the first to deliver the sermon before the prayer?" He replied, "Hazrat Uthman bin Affan. He led the people in prayer, then delivered the sermon, then he saw that many people had missed the prayer, so he did it that way. And the caliphs after him also did the same."
