أَخْبَرَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ حَسَّانَ حَدَّثَنَا وُهَيْبُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ حَدَّثَنَا أَيُّوبُ عَنْ أَبِي قِلَابَةَ عَنْ مَالِكِ بْنِ الْحُوَيْرِثِ قَالَ
أَتَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ فِي نَفَرٍ مِنْ قَوْمِي وَنَحْنُ شَبَبَةٌ فَأَقَمْنَا عِنْدَهُ عِشْرِينَ لَيْلَةً وَكَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ رَفِيقًا فَلَمَّا رَأَى شَوْقَنَا إِلَى أَهْلِينَا قَالَ «ارْجِعُوا إِلَى أَهْلِيكُمْ فَكُونُوا فِيهِمْ فَمُرُوهُمْ وَعَلِّمُوهُمْ وَصَلُّوا كَمَا رَأَيْتُمُونِي أُصَلِّي فَإِذَا حَضَرَتِ الصَّلَاةُ فَلْيُؤَذِّنْ لَكُمْ أَحَدُكُمْ ثُمَّ لِيَؤُمَّكُمْ أَكْبَرُكُمْ»

✧ I came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ with a group of my people, and we were young men. We stayed with him for twenty nights. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ was gentle. When he saw our longing for our families, he said, "Return to your families, stay among them, teach them and instruct them. Pray as you have seen me pray. When the time for prayer comes, let one of you call the adhān for you, then let the oldest of you lead you."
