حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَابَانَ الْجُنْدِيسَابُورِيُّ ثنا مَحْمُودُ بْنُ غَيْلَانَ ثنا النَّضْرُ بْنُ شُمَيْلٍ ثنا شُعْبَةُ عَنْ أَبِي التَّيَّاحِ عَنْ أَبِي الْجَعْدِ عَنْ أَبِي أُمَامَةَ قَالَ
خَرَجَ عَلَيْنَا رَسُولُ اللهِ وَرَجُلٌ يَقُصُّ فَسَكَتَ الرَّجُلُ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «قُصَّ وَلَأَنْ أَقْعُدَ هَذَا الْمَقْعَدَ مِنْ حِينِ تُصَلِّي الْغَدَاةَ إِلَى أَنْ تُشْرِقَ الشَّمْسُ أَحَبُّ إِلَيَّ مِنْ أَنْ أَعْتِقَ أَرْبَعَ رِقَابٍ وَلَأَنْ أَقْعُدَ مِنْ حِينِ تُصَلِّي إِلَى أَنْ تَغْرُبَ الشَّمْسُ أَحَبُّ إِلَيَّ مِنْ أَنْ أُعْتِقَ أَرْبَعَ رِقَابٍ»

✧ The Messenger of Allah came out to us while a man was recounting stories, so the man fell silent. The Prophet ﷺ said: "Continue your story. For me to sit in this seat from the time you pray the morning prayer until the sun rises is more beloved to me than freeing four slaves, and for me to sit from the time you pray until the sun sets is more beloved to me than freeing four slaves."
