حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى عَنْ شُعْبَةَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ رَجَاءٍ وَإِسْمَاعِيلُ يَعْنِي ابْنَ عُلَيَّةَ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنَا شُعْبَةُ عَنْ إِسْمَاعِيلَ بْنِ رَجَاءٍ عَنْ أَوْسِ بْنِ ضَمْعَجٍ عَنْ أَبِي مَسْعُودٍ

يَؤُمُّ الْقَوْمَ أَقْرَؤُهُمْ لِكِتَابِ اللهِ وَأَقْدَمُهُمْ قِرَاءَةً، فَإِنْ كَانُوا فِي الْقِرَاءَةِ سَوَاءً فَأَقْدَمُهُمْ هِجْرَةً، فَإِنْ كَانُوا فِي الْهِجْرَةِ سَوَاءً فَأَكْبَرُهُمْ سِنًّا، وَلَا يُؤَمَّنَّ رَجُلٌ فِي سُلْطَانِهِ.

✧ Let the people be led in prayer by the one among them most versed in the Book of Allah and the earliest in recitation. If they are equal in recitation, then the earliest of them in migration. If they are equal in migration, then the eldest of them in age. And no man should lead another in prayer in the latter's sphere of authority.

In their own words, as Hadith Unlocked records them. They are shown, not summarised into a grade.

  • Ibn Ḥajar al-ʿAsqalānī

    ومداره على إسماعيل بن رجاء عن أوس بن ضمعج عنه وليسا جميعا من شرط البخاري وقد نقل ابن أبي حاتم في العلل عن أبيه أن شعبة كان يتوقف في صحة هذا الحديث ولكن هو في الجملة يصلح للاحتجاج به عند البخاري

    machine translationIts transmission revolves around Ismāʿīl b. Rajāʾ, from Aws b. Ḍamʿaj, from him. Neither of the two meets the condition of al-Bukhārī. Ibn Abī Ḥātim reported in al-ʿIlal from his father that Shuʿbah used to withhold judgement on the authenticity of this hadith. However, in general it is suitable to be used as evidence according to al-Bukhārī.
