حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْعَبَّاسِ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ ثنا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْجَبَّارِ ثنا يُونُسُ بْنُ بُكَيْرٍ عَنِ ابْنِ إِسْحَاقَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ أَبِي أُمَامَةَ بْنِ سَهْلِ بْنِ حُنَيْفٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ أَبِي أُمَامَةَ أَنَّ عَبْدَ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنَ كَعْبِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ أَخْبَرَهُ قَالَ

كُنْتُ قَائِدَ أَبِي بَعْدَمَا ذَهَبَ بَصَرُهُ فَكَانَ لَا يَسْمَعُ الْأَذَانَ يَوْمَ الْجُمُعَةِ إِلَّا قَالَ رَحْمَةُ اللَّهِ عَلَى أَسْعَدَ بْنِ زُرَارَةَ فَقُلْتُ بَعْدَ حِينٍ لَوْ سَأَلْتُ أَبِي مَا شَأْنُهُ إِذَا سَمِعَ الْأَذَانَ قَالَ رَحْمَةُ اللَّهِ عَلَى أَسْعَدَ بْنِ زُرَارَةَ؟ فَقُلْتُ يَا أَبَتِ إِنَّهُ لَتُعْجِبُنِي صَلَاتُكَ عَلَى أَبِي أُمَامَةَ كُلَّمَا سَمِعْتَ الْأَذَانَ بِالْجُمُعَةِ قَالَ «أَيْ بُنَيَّ كَانَ أَوَّلُ مَنْ جَمَعَ لَنَا الْجُمُعَةَ بِالْمَدِينَةِ فِي هَزْمٍ مِنْ حَرَّةِ بَنِي بَيَاضَةَ فِي بَقِيعِ يُقَالُ لَهُ الْخَضِمَاتِ» قُلْتُ وَكَمْ أَنْتُمْ يَوْمَئِذٍ؟ قَالَ «أَرْبَعُونَ رَجُلًا»

✧ I was my father's guide after he lost his sight. Whenever he heard the call to prayer on Friday, he would say, "May Allah have mercy on As'ad b. Zurarah." After some time, I thought I should ask my father why, whenever he heard the call to prayer, he said, "May Allah have mercy on As'ad b. Zurarah." So I said, "O my father, it amazes me that you pray for Abu Umamah every time you hear the call for Friday prayer." He said, "O my son, he was the first to lead the Friday prayer for us in Madinah, in a depression of the Harrah of Banu Bayadah, in a place called al-Khadimat." I said, "How many were you that day?" He said, "Forty men."
