Hadith 1515Q

وَإِنْ كَانَ الْإِمَامُ مِنَ الرَّعِيَّةِ يَؤُمُّ النَّاسَ بِغَيْرِ إِذَنِ الْإِمَامِ الْأَعْظَمِ قَالَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ: خَبَرُ الْمُغِيرَةِ بْنِ شُعْبَةَ فِي إِمَامَةِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ عَوْفٍ
Even if the imam leading the people from among the subjects has not taken permission from the chief imam. Imam Abu Bakr, may Allah have mercy on him, says that the evidence for this issue is the hadith of Sayyiduna Mughira bin Shu’bah, may Allah be pleased with him, narrated regarding the leadership of Sayyiduna Abdur Rahman bin Awf, may Allah be pleased with him.
