[Machine] I heard Zaid ibn Arqam say that the first person who prayed with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ was Ali. Omar then said, and I mentioned this to Ibrahim, and he denied it and said it was Abu Bakr.  

أحمد:١٩٣٠٣حَدَّثَنَا حُسَيْنٌ حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ مُرَّةَ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أَبَا حَمْزَةَ رَجُلًا مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ قَالَ

سَمِعْتُ زَيْدَ بْنَ أَرْقَمَ يَقُولُ أَوَّلُ مَنْ صَلَّى مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ عَلِيٌّ قَالَ عَمْرٌو فَذَكَرْتُ ذَلِكَ لِإِبْرَاهِيمَ فَأَنْكَرَهُ وَقَالَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ
