أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو طَاهِرٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْجَبَّارِ بْنُ الْعَلَاءِ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ دِينَارٍ قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ جَابِرَ بْنَ عَبْدِ اللهِ يَقُولُ:
كَانَ مُعَاذٌ يُصَلِّي مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ ثُمَّ يَرْجِعُ إِلَى قَوْمِهِ، فَيَؤُمُّهُمْ، فَأَخَّرَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ ذَاتَ لَيْلَةٍ الْعِشَاءَ، ثُمَّ رَجَعَ مُعَاذٌ يَؤُمُّ قَوْمَهُ، فَافْتَتَحَ بِسُورَةِ الْبَقَرَةِ، فَتَنَحَّى رَجُلٌ وَصَلَّى نَاحِيَةً، ثُمَّ خَرَجَ فَقَالُوا: مَا لَكَ يَا فُلَانُ ؟ نَافَقْتَ ؟ قَالَ: مَا نَافَقْتُ، وَلَآتِيَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ فَلَأُخْبِرَنَّهُ ! قَالَ: فَذَهَبَ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَقَالَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، إِنَّ مُعَاذًا يُصَلِّي مَعَكَ ثُمَّ يَرْجِعُ فَيَؤُمُّنَا، وَإِنَّكَ أَخَّرْتَ الْعِشَاءَ الْبَارِحَةَ، ثُمَّ جَاءَ يَؤُمُّنَا فَافْتَتَحَ بِسُورَةِ الْبَقَرَةِ، وَإِنَّمَا نَحْنُ أَصْحَابُ نَوَاضِحَ، وَإِنَّمَا نَعْمَلُ بِأَيْدِينَا ! فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ: أَفَتَّانٌ أَنْتَ يَا مُعَاذُ ؟ اقْرَأْ بِسُورَةِ كَذَا، وَسُورَةِ كَذَا، فَقُلْنَا لِعَمْرٍو: إِنَّ أَبَا الزُّبَيْرِ يَقُولُ: سَبِّحِ اسْمَ رَبِّكَ [الْأَعْلَى]، وَ وَالسَّمَاءِ وَالطَّارِقِ ؟ فَقَالَ: هُوَ نَحْوُ هَذَا

✧ Mu'adh used to pray with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, then return to his people and lead them in prayer. One night the Messenger of Allah ﷺ delayed the 'Isha' prayer, then Mu'adh returned and led his people. He began with Surah al-Baqarah, so a man stepped aside and prayed alone, then left. They said, 'What is the matter with you, O so-and-so? Have you become a hypocrite?' He said, 'I have not become a hypocrite, and I will certainly go to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and inform him!' So he went to the Prophet ﷺ and said, 'O Messenger of Allah, Mu'adh prays with you then returns and leads us. Last night you delayed the 'Isha' prayer, then he came and led us, and he began with Surah al-Baqarah. We are people who work with our hands at watering camels!' The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'Are you a troublemaker, O Mu'adh? Recite Surah such-and-such, and Surah such-and-such.' We said to 'Amr: 'Abu al-Zubayr says: "Glorify the name of your Lord [the Most High]" and "By the sky and the night comer"?' He said, 'It is something like that.'
