أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو زَكَرِيَّا بْنُ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ، ثنا أَبُو الْعَبَّاسِ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ، أنبأ الرَّبِيعُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ، أنبأ الشَّافِعِيُّ، أنبأ عَبْدُ الْمَجِيدِ، عَنِ ابْنِ جُرَيْجٍ قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنِي نَافِعٌ قَالَ: أُقِيمَتِ الصَّلَاةُ فِي مَسْجِدٍ بِطَائِفَةِ الْمَدِينَةِ وَلِابْنِ عُمَرَ قَرِيبًا مِنْ ذَلِكَ الْمَسْجِدِ أَرْضٌ يَعْمَلُهَا، وَإِمَامُ ذَلِكَ الْمَسْجِدِ مَوْلًى لَهُ، وَمَسْكَنُ ذَلِكَ الْمَوْلَى وَأَصْحَابِهِ ثَمَّ، فَلَمَّا سَمِعَهُمْ عَبْدُ اللهِ جَاءَ لِيَشْهَدَ مَعَهُمُ الصَّلَاةَ فَقَالَ لَهُ الْمَوْلَى صَاحِبُ الْمَسْجِدِ: تَقَدَّمْ فَصَلِّ، فَقَالَ عَبْدُ اللهِ: " أَنْتَ أَحَقُّ أَنْ تُصَلِّيَ فِي مَسْجِدِكَ مِنِّي "، فَصَلَّى الْمَوْلَى.
Nafi' (may Allah have mercy on him) says: The iqamah was called in a mosque on the outskirts of Madinah. Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) had land near that mosque which he worked. The imam of that mosque was his freed slave, and that freed slave and his companions lived there. When they learned that Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) had come for the prayer, they said: "Go forward and lead the congregation." Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) said: "You have more right to lead the congregation in your own mosque." So his freed slave led the congregation.
