Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah

Hazrat Ubaidullah bin Hubairah narrates that Hazrat Usaid bin Hudair used to lead the prayers for his tribe, Banu Abd al-Ashhal. Once he fell ill, and after his illness when he returned, the people said to him, "Please come forward and lead the prayer." He replied, "I do not have the strength to lead the prayer." The people said, "As long as you are here, no one else will lead us in prayer." Hazrat Usaid then said to them, "Then all of you sit down," and he led them in prayer while they were sitting.
