وَحَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّى، وَابْنُ بَشَّارٍ قَالَ ابْنُ الْمُثَنَّى حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ، عَنْ شُعْبَةَ، عَنْ إِسْمَاعِيلَ بْنِ رَجَاءٍ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ أَوْسَ بْنَ ضَمْعَجٍ، يَقُولُ: سَمِعْتُ أَبَا مَسْعُودٍ

يَقُولُ قَالَ لَنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «يَؤُمُّ الْقَوْمَ أَقْرَؤُهُمْ لِكِتَابِ اللَّهِ وَأَقْدَمُهُمْ قِرَاءَةً فَإِنْ كَانَتْ قِرَاءَتُهُمْ سَوَاءً فَلْيَؤُمَّهُمْ أَقْدَمُهُمْ هِجْرَةً فَإِنْ كَانُوا فِي الْهِجْرَةِ سَوَاءً فَلْيَؤُمَّهُمْ أَكْبَرُهُمْ سِنًّا وَلَا تَؤُمَّنَّ الرَّجُلَ فِي أَهْلِهِ وَلَا فِي سُلْطَانِهِ وَلَا تَجْلِسْ عَلَى تَكْرِمَتِهِ فِي بَيْتِهِ إِلاَّ أَنْ يَأْذَنَ لَكَ أَوْ بِإِذْنِهِ»

The Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) said to us: The one who is well grounded in Allah’s Book and is distinguished among them in recitation should act as; Imam for the people. and if they are equally versed in reciting it, then the one who has most knowledge regarding Sunnah; if they are equal regarding the Sunnah, then the earliest one to emigrate; If they emigrated at the same time, then the oldest one in age.

No man must lead another in prayer in latter’s house or where (the latter) has authority, or sit in his place of honour in his house, except that he gives you permission or with his permission.

আবূ কামিল আল জাহদারী, আবূ কুরায়ব ও ইবনু আবূ যায়িদাহ (রহঃ) এরা সকলেই আমর ইবনু মাইমূন থেকে এ সনদে হাদীসটি বর্ণনা করেছেন। তবে ইবনু যায়িদার হাদীস ইবনু বিশর এর অনুরূপ যাতে বর্ণিত হয়েছে যে, রাসূলুল্লাহ সাল্লাল্লাহু আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম (নিজে) বীর্য ধুলেন। আর ইবনুল মুবারক (রহঃ) ও ‘আবদুল ওয়াহিদ (রহঃ) এর হাদীসে রয়েছে যে, আয়িশাহ (রাযিঃ) বলেনঃ আমি তা রাসূলুল্লাহ সাল্লাল্লাহু আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম এর কাপড় থেকে ধুয়ে ফেলতাম।

عبدالواحد بن زیاد ، ابن مبارک اور ابن ابی زائدہ نے عمرو بن میمون سے سابقہ سندکے ساتھ یہی حدیث بیان کی ، البتہ ابن ابی زائدہ کی حدیث کے الفاظ ابن بشر کی طرح ( یہ ) ہیں کہ رسو ل اللہ ﷺ منی ( خود ) دھوتے تھے جبکہ ابن مبارک اور عبد الواحد کی حدیث میں اس طرح ہے کہ عائشہؓ نے کہا : میں اسے نبی اکرمﷺ کے کپڑے سے دھوتی تھی ۔

Bize Ebu Kamil el-Cahderi de tahdis etti. Bize Abdulvahid -yani Ziyad- tahdis etti (H). Bize Ebu Kureyb tahdis etti, bize İbnu'l-Mübarek ve İbn Ebu Zaide haber verdi. Hepsi Amr b. Meymun'dan bu isnad ile rivayet etti. İbn Ebu Zaide'nin hadisi, İbn Bişr'in şu hadisi gibidir: Resulullah (Sallallahu aleyhi ve Sellem) meniyi yıkardı.

İbnu'l-Mubarek ve Abdulvahid ise hadislerinde Aişe: "Ben onu Resulullah (Sallallahu aleyhi ve Sellem)'in elbisesinden yıkardım" dedi, şeklindedir. AÇIKLAMALAR 290.sayfada

What it means

The Hadīth highlights some points: 1. The one who is the most entitled to leading the people in prayer is the one with the best memorization of the Qur'an. Yet, he has to be knowledgeable about the rulings pertaining to the prayer, since the one who is ignorant about such rulings has no right to lead the people in prayer. If they are equal in this point, the one who is the most knowledgeable about the Sunnah should lead them in prayer.

If they are equal in this point too, then the one who is the earliest in immigrating should do. If they are still equal in this point, then the one who is the first among them to embrace Islam should lead them. 2. A guest should not precede the house owner in leading the people in prayer except with the latter’s permission. The house owner has more right to assume this task than the guest. 3. A guest is not allowed to sit in the house owner’s private place except with his permission.
