Hadith 17063
حَدَّثَنَا عَفَّانُ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ ، قَالَ : أَخْبَرَنِي إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ رَجَاءٍ ، قَالَ : سَمِعْتُ أَوْسَ بْنَ ضَمْعَجٍ ، قَالَ : سَمِعْتُ أَبَا مَسْعُودٍ الْأَنْصَارِيَّ الْبَدْرِيَّ ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، قَالَ : " يَؤُمُّ الْقَوْمَ أَقْرَؤُهُمْ لِكِتَابِ اللَّهِ وَأَقْدَمُهُمْ قِرَاءَةً ، فَإِنْ كَانَتْ قِرَاءَتُهُمْ سَوَاءً فَلْيَؤُمَّهُمْ أَقْدَمُهُمْ هِجْرَةً ، فَإِنْ كَانَ هِجْرَتُهُمْ سَوَاءً ، فَلْيَؤُمَّهُمْ أَكْبَرُهُمْ سِنًّا ، وَلَا يُؤَمُّ الرَّجُلُ فِي أَهْلِهِ وَلَا فِي سُلْطَانِهِ ، وَلَا يُجْلَسُ عَلَى تَكْرِمَتِهِ فِي بَيْتِهِ إِلَّا أَنْ يَأْذَنَ لَكَ ، أَوْ إِلَّا بِإِذْنِهِ " .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "The one who should lead the people in prayer is the one among them who is the best reciter of the Qur'an and the most proficient in its recitation. If they are equal in recitation, then the one who migrated first should lead. If they are equal in migration, then the oldest among them should lead. No one should lead prayer in the house or domain of another except with his permission, and likewise, no one should sit in the honored place of someone in his house except with his permission."
Hadith 17064
حَدَّثَنَا حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ هَارُونَ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مَالِكٍ ، عَنْ رِبْعِيِّ بْنِ حِرَاشٍ ، عَنْ حُذَيْفَةَ ، أَنَّ رَجُلًا أَتَى اللَّهُ بِهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ ، فَقَالَ : مَاذَا عَمِلْتَ فِي الدُّنْيَا ؟ فَقَالَ لَهُ الرَّجُلُ : مَا عَمِلْتُ مِنْ مِثْقَالِ ذَرَّةٍ مِنْ خَيْرٍ أَرْجُوكَ بِهَا ، فَقَالَهَا لَهُ ثَلَاثًا ، وَقَالَ فِي الثَّالِثَةِ : أَيْ رَبِّ ، كُنْتَ أَعْطَيْتَنِي فَضْلًا مِنْ مَالٍ فِي الدُّنْيَا ، فَكُنْتُ أُبَايِعُ النَّاسَ ، وَكَانَ مِنْ خُلُقِي أَتَجَاوُزُ عَنْهُ ، وَكُنْتُ أُيَسِّرُ عَلَى الْمُوسِرِ ، وَأُنْظِرُ الْمُعْسِرَ ، فَقَالَ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ : نَحْنُ أَوْلَى بِذَلِكَ مِنْكَ ، تَجَاوَزُوا عَنْ عَبْدِي ، فَغُفِرَ لَهُ " ، فَقَالَ أَبُو مَسْعُودٍ هَكَذَا سَمِعْتُ مِنْ فِي رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ . " وَرَجُلٌ آخَرُ أَمَرَ أَهْلَهُ إِذَا مَاتَ أَنْ يُحَرِّقُوهُ ، ثُمَّ يَطْحَنُوهُ ، ثُمَّ يَذُرُّوه فِي يَوْمِ رِيحٍ عَاصِفٍ ، فَفَعَلُوا ذَلِكَ بِهِ ، فَجُمِعَ إِلَى رَبِّهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ ، فَقَالَ لَهُ : مَا حَمَلَكَ عَلَى هَذَا ؟ قَالَ : يَا رَبِّ لَمْ يَكُنْ عَبْدٌ أَعْصَى لَكَ مِنِّي ، فَرَجَوْتُ أَنْ أَنْجُوَ ، قَالَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ : " تَجَاوَزُوا عَنْ عَبْدِي " فَغُفِرَ لَهُ ، قَالَ أَبُو مَسْعُودٍ هَكَذَا سَمِعْتُهُ مِنْ فِي رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Hudhaifah (may Allah be pleased with him) that a man was presented before Allah Almighty. Allah asked him, "What did you do in the world?" He replied, "I did not do any good deed, not even equal to a particle, for which I could hope for reward from You." This happened three times. The third time, he said, "O Lord! You granted me abundance of wealth and riches in the world, and I used to trade with people. It was my habit to show leniency to people, to make things easy for the wealthy, and to give respite to the poor." Upon this, Allah Almighty said, "We are more deserving of this than you. Angels! Forgive My servant." Thus, he was forgiven. Upon hearing this hadith, Hazrat Abu Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) said, "I heard this hadith from the blessed mouth of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) in exactly this way."
There was another man who instructed his family that when he died, they should burn him and crush his remains, and on a windy day, scatter his ashes. His family did as he had instructed. All his body parts were gathered in the presence of the Lord, and Allah asked him, "What compelled you to do this?" He replied, "O Lord! There was no servant more disobedient to You than me. I thought perhaps in this way I might be saved." Allah Almighty said, "Angels! Forgive My servant." Upon hearing this hadith as well, Hazrat Abu Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) said, "I heard this hadith from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) in exactly this way."

Hadith 17065
حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ ، حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ أَبِي خَالِدٍ ، عَنْ قَيْسِ بْنِ أَبِي حَازِمٍ ، عَنْ أَبِي مَسْعُودٍ ، قَالَ : جَاءَ رَجُلٌ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَقَالَ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، وَاللَّهِ إِنِّي لَأَتَأَخَّرُ فِي صَلَاةِ الْغَدَاةِ مَخَافَةَ فُلَانٍ يَعْنِي إِمَامَهُمْ ، قَالَ : فَمَا رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَشَدَّ غَضَبًا فِي مَوْعِظَةٍ مِنْهُ يَوْمَئِذٍ ، فَقَالَ : " أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ إِنَّ مِنْكُمْ مُنَفِّرِينَ ، فَأَيُّكُمْ مَا صَلَّى بِالنَّاسِ فَلْيُخَفِّفْ ، فَإِنَّ فِيهِمْ الضَّعِيفَ وَالْكَبِيرَ وَذَا الْحَاجَةِ " .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) that a man came to the service of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and said: "O Messenger of Allah! I think that so-and-so (the imam) makes me miss the Fajr prayer because of fear of him." The narrator says: I have never seen the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) more angry during a sermon than on that day. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "People! Some of you make others dislike (the prayer). Whoever among you leads the people in prayer should make it light, for among the worshippers are the weak, the elderly, and those with needs."
Hadith 17066
حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ ، أَخْبَرَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ أَبِي خَالِدٍ . ح وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عُبَيْدٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ ، عَنْ قَيْسِ بْنِ أَبِي حَازِمٍ ، عَنْ أَبِي مَسْعُودٍ الْأَنْصَارِيِّ ، قَالَ : أَشَارَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِيَدِهِ نَحْوَ الْيَمَنِ ، فَقَالَ : " الْإِيمَانُ هَاهُنَا " ، قَالَ : " أَلَا وَإِنَّ الْقَسْوَةَ وَغِلَظَ الْقُلُوبِ فِي الْفَدَّادِينَ أَصْحَابِ الْإِبِلِ حَيْثُ يَطْلُعُ قَرْنُ الشَّيْطَانِ فِي رَبِيعَةَ وَمُضَرَ " ، قَالَ مُحَمَّدٌ : " عِنْدَ أُصُولِ أَذْنَابِ الْإِبِلِ ".
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) once pointed with his blessed hand towards Yemen and said: "Iman (faith) is here. Beware! Harshness and severity of hearts are found among those arrogant ones who are the owners of camels, from where the horn of Satan appears." That is, among the tribes named Rabi'ah and Mudar.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) that a person submitted in the court of the Messenger: "O Messenger of Allah! How should we send blessings upon you?" The Prophet (peace be upon him) said: "Say like this «اللَّهُمَّ صَلِّ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَعَلَى آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ وَبَارِكْ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَعَلَى آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ ، كَمَا بَارَكْتَ عَلَى إِبْرَاهِيمَ ، فِي الْعَالَمِينَ إِنَّكَ حَمِيدٌ مَجِيدٌ»."

حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ ، عَنْ حَبِيبٍ يَعْنِي ابْنَ أَبِي ثَابِتٍ ، عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ الْقَاسِمِ ، أَوْ الْقَاسِمِ بْنِ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُتْبَةَ ، عَنْ أَبِي مَسْعُودٍ ، قَالَ : خَطَبَنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَقَالَ : " إِنَّ هَذَا الْأَمْرَ فِيكُمْ ، وَإِنَّكُمْ وُلَاتُهُ ، وَلَنْ يَزَالَ فِيكُمْ حَتَّى تُحْدِثُوا أَعْمَالًا ، فَإِذَا فَعَلْتُمْ ذَلِكَ بَعَثَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ عَلَيْكُمْ شَرَّ خَلْقِهِ فَيَلْتَحِيكُمْ كَمَا يُلْتَحَى الْقَضِيبُ " .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Mas’ud (may Allah be pleased with him) that once the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said to us while delivering a sermon: “This government will remain in your hands and you will be rulers over it, and it will remain so as long as you do not introduce innovations. When you begin to do so, Allah will send upon you the worst of His creation, who will strip you away like wood is stripped.”

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) that once a man came and sat right in front of the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him), and we were also present there. He said: "O Messenger of Allah! We have learned the way to greet you with salam, but when we send blessings upon you in prayer, how should we do so?" The Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) remained silent for so long at his question that we began to think it would have been better if this man had not asked. After a little while, the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "When you send blessings upon me, say this: «اللَّهُمَّ صَلِّ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ النَّبِيِّ الْاُمِّيِّ ، وَعَلَى آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ ، كَمَا صَلَّيْتَ عَلَى إِبْرَاهِيمَ وَآلِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ وَبَارِكْ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ النَّبِيِّ الْاُمِّيِّ ، كَمَا بَارَكْتَ عَلَى إِبْرَاهِيمَ ، وَعَلَى آلِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ ، إِنَّكَ حَمِيدٌ مَجِيدٌ»."

Hadith 17076
حَدَّثَنَا عَفَّانُ ، حَدَّثَنَا هَمَّامٌ ، حَدَّثَنَا عَطَاءُ بْنُ السَّائِبِ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا سَالِمٌ الْبَرَّادُ ، قَالَ : وَكَانَ عِنْدِي أَوْثَقَ مِنْ نَفْسِي ، قَالَ : قَالَ لَنَا أَبُو مَسْعُودٍ الْبَدْرِيُّ : أَلَا أُصَلِّي لَكُمْ صَلَاةَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ؟ قَالَ : فَكَبَّرَ ، فَرَكَعَ ، فَوَضَعَ كَفَّيْهِ عَلَى رُكْبَتَيْهِ ، وَفُضَلَتْ أَصَابِعُهُ عَلَى سَاقَيْهِ ، وَجَافَى عَنْ إِبْطَيْهِ حَتَّى اسْتَقَرَّ كُلُّ شَيْءٍ مِنْهُ ، ثُمَّ قَالَ : " سَمِعَ اللَّهُ لِمَنْ حَمِدَهُ " ، فَاسْتَوَى قَائِمًا حَتَّى اسْتَقَرَّ كُلُّ شَيْءٍ مِنْهُ ، ثُمَّ كَبَّرَ ، وَسَجَدَ ، وَجَافَى عَنْ إِبْطَيْهِ حَتَّى اسْتَقَرَّ كُلُّ شَيْءٍ مِنْهُ ، ثُمَّ رَفَعَ رَأْسَهُ ، فَاسْتَوَى جَالِسًا حَتَّى اسْتَقَرَّ كُلُّ شَيْءٍ مِنْهُ ، ثُمَّ سَجَدَ الثَّانِيَةَ ، فَصَلَّى بِنَا أَرْبَعَ رَكَعَاتٍ هَكَذَا ، ثُمَّ قَالَ : هَكَذَا كَانَتْ صَلَاةُ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، أَوْ قَالَ هَكَذَا رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ صَلَّى .
Salim Al-Barrad (who is a trustworthy narrator) says that once Sayyiduna Abu Mas’ud Badri (may Allah be pleased with him) said to us, “Shall I not show you how the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) used to pray?” Saying this, he pronounced the takbir, placed both his palms on his knees in ruku’, kept the joints of his fingers open, and kept his hands away from his stomach, until every limb was settled in its place. Then, after saying «سمع الله لمن حمده», he stood up straight until every limb was settled in its place. Then, pronouncing the takbir, he performed sajdah and kept his hands away from his stomach until every limb was settled in its place. Then, raising his head, he sat up straight until every limb was settled in its place.

حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ ، عَنْ إِسْمَاعِيلَ ، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ قَيْسَ بْنَ أَبِي حَازِمٍ يُحَدِّثُ ، عَنْ أَبِي مَسْعُودٍ ، أَنَّ رَجُلًا أَتَى النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَقَالَ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، إِنَّ فُلَانًا يُطِيلُ بِنَا الصَّلَاةَ حَتَّى إِنِّي لَأَتَأَخَّرُ ، فَغَضِبَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ غَضَبًا مَا رَأَيْتُهُ غَضِبَ فِي مَوْعِظَةٍ ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " إِنَّ فِيكُمْ مُنَفِّرِينَ ، فَمَنْ أَمَّ قَوْمًا فَلْيُخَفِّفْ بِهِمْ الصَّلَاةَ ، فَإِنَّ وَرَاءَهُ الْكَبِيرَ وَالْمَرِيضَ وَذَا الْحَاجَةِ " .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) that a man came to the service of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) and said: O Messenger of Allah! I think that because of so-and-so (the imam), I will miss the Fajr prayer out of fear of him. The narrator says: I have never seen the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) more angry during a sermon than on that day. The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: O people! Some of you make others dislike (the prayer). Whoever among you leads the people in prayer should make it light, for among the worshippers are the weak, the elderly, and those with needs.

حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ زَكَرِيَّا بْنِ أَبِي زَائِدَةَ ، حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي ، عَنْ عَامِرٍ ، قَالَ : انْطَلَقَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَمَعَهُ الْعَبَّاسُ عَمُّهُ إِلَى السَّبْعِينَ مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ عِنْدَ الْعَقَبَةِ تَحْتَ الشَّجَرَةِ ، فَقَالَ : " لِيَتَكَلَّمْ مُتَكَلِّمُكُمْ ، وَلَا يُطِيلُ الْخُطْبَةَ ، فَإِنَّ عَلَيْكُمْ مِنَ الْمُشْرِكِينَ عَيْنًا ، وَإِنْ يَعْلَمُوا بِكُمْ يَفْضَحُوكُمْ " ، فَقَالَ قَائِلُهُمْ وَهُوَ أَبُو أُمَامَةَ : سَلْ يَا مُحَمَّدُ لِرَبِّكَ مَا شِئْتَ ، ثُمَّ سَلْ لِنَفْسِكَ وَلِأَصْحَابِكَ مَا شِئْتَ ، ثُمَّ أَخْبِرْنَا مَا لَنَا مِنَ الثَّوَابِ عَلَى اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ ، وَعَلَيْكُمْ إِذَا فَعَلْنَا ذَلِكَ ؟ قَالَ : فَقَالَ : " أَسْأَلُكُمْ لِرَبِّي عَزَّ وَجَلَّ أَنْ تَعْبُدُوهُ وَلَا تُشْرِكُوا بِهِ شَيْئًا ، وَأَسْأَلُكُمْ لِنَفْسِي وَلِأَصْحَابِي أَنْ تُؤْوُونَا ، وَتَنْصُرُونَا ، وَتَمْنَعُونَا مِمَّا مَنَعْتُمْ مِنْهُ أَنْفُسَكُمْ " ، قَالُوا : فَمَا لَنَا إِذَا فَعَلْنَا ذَلِكَ ؟ قَالَ : " لَكُمْ الْجَنَّةُ " ، قَالُوا : فَلَكَ ذَلِكَ . .
Aamir says that (on the occasion of the Pledge of Aqabah) the Prophet (peace be upon him) along with his uncle Sayyiduna Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him) reached near seventy Ansar individuals under a tree at a mountain pass and said: Let your spokesman speak, but do not speak at length because the polytheists have appointed spies over you; if they find out, they will defame you. So one of them, that is, Abu Umamah, spoke: O Muhammad (peace be upon you)! First, present whatever demands you wish from your Lord, for yourself, and for your companions, then tell us what reward we will have from Allah and from you if we fulfill your demands? The Prophet (peace be upon him) said: For my Lord, I demand from you that you worship Him alone, associate nothing with Him, and for myself and my companions, I demand that you give us shelter, help us, and protect us just as you protect yourselves. They asked: If we do this, what will we get? The Prophet (peace be upon him) said: "You will get Paradise." They said: Then we have made this promise to you.

Salim Al-Barrad says that once Sayyiduna Abu Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) said to us, "Shall I not show you how the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) used to pray?" Saying this, he pronounced the takbeer, placed both his palms on his knees in ruku', kept the fingers spread apart, and kept his hands away from his stomach, until every limb was settled in its place. Then he raised his head from ruku' and stood up straight, until every limb was settled in its place. Then, saying the takbeer, he performed sajdah and kept his hands away from his stomach. Then he raised his head and sat up straight until every limb was settled in its place. Then he performed the second sajdah, and after praying all four rak'ahs in this manner, he said, "The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) used to pray like this."

Remember!” I turned around and saw that it was the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him). He (peace be upon him) said: “By Allah!

You know that once Jibreel (peace be upon him) descended and led the prayer, and the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and the companions (may Allah be pleased with them) also prayed at that time. In this way, he came at the time of each of the five prayers and specified the time. Upon hearing this hadith, Umar bin Abdul Aziz (may Allah have mercy on him) said: Urwah! Speak thoughtfully, did Jibreel (peace be upon him) specify the time of prayer? Urwah (may Allah have mercy on him) replied: Yes! Bashir bin Abi Mas’ud narrated the hadith to me in this way. After that, until Umar bin Abdul Aziz departed from this world, he would determine the time of prayer by its sign.

If they are equal in recitation, then the one who migrated first should lead. If they are also equal in migration, then the oldest among them should lead.
