abudawud:583Ibn Muʿādh from my father > Shuʿbah Bihadhā al-Ḥadīth

“A man should not lead the another man in prayer. Abu Dawud said: Yahya al-Qattan narrated from Shu’bah in a similar way, i.e. the earliest of them in recitation.  

أبو داود:٥٨٣حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ مُعَاذٍ حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ بِهَذَا الْحَدِيثِ قَالَ

فِيهِ وَلاَ يَؤُمُّ الرَّجُلُ الرَّجُلَ فِي سُلْطَانِهِ  

قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُدَ كَذَا قَالَ يَحْيَى الْقَطَّانُ عَنْ شُعْبَةَ أَقْدَمُهُمْ قِرَاءَةً
