(حديث موقوف) حَدَّثَنَا حَدَّثَنَا هَاشِمُ بْنُ الْقَاسِمِ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا عِيسَى يَعْنِي ابْنَ الْمُسَيَّبِ ، عَنْ قَيْسِ بْنِ أَبِي حَازِمٍ ، قَالَ : إِنِّي لَجَالِسٌ عِنْدَ أَبِي بَكْرٍ الصِّدِّيقِ خَلِيفَةِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، بَعْدَ وَفَاةِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِشَهْرٍ ، فَذَكَرَ قِصَّةً ، فَنُودِيَ فِي النَّاسِ : " أَنَّ الصَّلَاةَ جَامِعَةٌ ، وَهِيَ أَوَّلُ صَلَاةٍ فِي الْمُسْلِمِينَ نُودِيَ بِهَا إِنَّ الصَّلَاةَ جَامِعَةٌ ، فَاجْتَمَعَ النَّاسُ ، فَصَعِدَ الْمِنْبَرَ ، شَيْئًا صُنِعَ لَهُ كَانَ يَخْطُبُ عَلَيْهِ ، وَهِيَ أَوَّلُ خُطْبَةٍ خَطَبَهَا فِي الْإِسْلَامِ ، قَالَ : فَحَمِدَ اللَّهَ وَأَثْنَى عَلَيْهِ ، ثُمَّ قَالَ : يَا أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ ، وَلَوَدِدْتُ أَنَّ هَذَا كَفَانِيهِ غَيْرِي ، وَلَئِنْ أَخَذْتُمُونِي بِسُنَّةِ نَبِيِّكُمْ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مَا أُطِيقُهَا ، إِنْ كَانَ لَمَعْصُومًا مِنَ الشَّيْطَانِ ، وَإِنْ كَانَ لَيَنْزِلُ عَلَيْهِ الْوَحْيُ مِنَ السَّمَاءِ " .
Qais bin Abi Hazim, may Allah have mercy on him, says: I was sitting in the company of Sayyiduna Abu Bakr Siddiq, may Allah be pleased with him, one month after the blessed passing of the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him. A caller announced among the people that the prayer was ready, and this was the first prayer after the Prophet’s passing for which the Muslims were called by saying “As-salatu jami‘ah.” So the people gathered, and Sayyiduna Abu Bakr Siddiq, may Allah be pleased with him, ascended the pulpit. This was his first sermon which he delivered before the people of Islam. In this sermon, he first praised and glorified Allah, then said: O people! I wished that someone other than me would take on this responsibility. If you wish to see me adhere to the Sunnah of the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, I do not have the strength to fulfill it completely. The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, was protected from the attacks of Satan, and revelation would descend upon him from the heavens (so how can I be equal to him?).
