[Machine] We came to the Prophet ﷺ while we were young. He kept us with him for about twenty nights. Then, he said to us, "If you go back to your lands and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ is gentle, teach them." Suraig said, "And you ordered them to perform the prayer such and such times." Yunus said, "And teach them to perform the prayer like this and this at certain times. And when the time for prayer comes, let one of you give the call to prayer and the oldest among you lead the prayer."  

أحمد:٢٠٥٢٩حَدَّثَنَا سُرَيْجٌ وَيُونُسُ قَالَا حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ يَعْنِي ابْنَ زَيْدٍ حَدَّثَنَا أَيُّوبُ عَنْ أَبِي قِلَابَةَ عَنْ مَالِكِ بْنِ الْحُوَيْرِثِ اللَّيْثِيِّ قَالَ

قَدِمْنَا عَلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ وَنَحْنُ شَبَبَةٌ قَالَ فَأَقَمْنَا عِنْدَهُ نَحْوًا مِنْ عِشْرِينَ لَيْلَةً فَقَالَ لَنَا لَوْ رَجَعْتُمْ إِلَى بِلَادِكُمْ وَكَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ رَحِيمًا فَعَلَّمْتُمُوهُمْ قَالَ سُرَيْجٌ وَأَمَرْتُمُوهُمْ أَنْ يُصَلُّوا صَلَاةَ كَذَا فِي حِينَ كَذَا قَالَ يُونُسُ وَمُرُوهُمْ فَلْيُصَلُّوا صَلَاةَ كَذَا فِي حِينِ كَذَا وَصَلَاةَ كَذَا فِي حِينِ كَذَا فَإِذَا حَضَرَتِ الصَّلَاةُ فَلْيُؤَذِّنْ لَكُمْ أَحَدُكُمْ وَلْيَؤُمَّكُمْ أَكْبَرُكُمْ

bukhari:685Sulaymān b. Ḥarb > Ḥammād b. Zayd > Ayyūb > Abū Qilābah > Mālik b. al-Ḥūwayrith

We went to the Prophet ﷺ and we were all young men and stayed with him for about twenty nights. The Prophet ﷺ was very merciful. He said, "When you return home, impart religious teachings to your families and tell them to offer perfectly such and such a prayer at such and such a time and such and such a prayer at such and such a time. And at the time of the prayer one of you should pronounce the Adhan and the oldest of you should lead the prayer."

"We came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and we were young men close in age. He let us stay with him for twenty days. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ was merciful and compassionate, and he thought that we were missing our families; he asked us about those whom we had left behind of our families, so we told him, and he said: 'Go back to your families, stay with them and teach them. Tell them when the time for prayer comes; let one of you call the Adhan and let the oldest of you lead the prayer.'" (Using translation from Nasāʾī 635)

We came to the Prophet ﷺ and we were (a few) young men of approximately equal age and stayed with him for twenty nights. Then he thought that we were anxious for our families, and he asked us whom we had left behind to look after our families, and we told him. He was kindhearted and merciful, so he said, "Return to your families and teach them (religious knowledge) and order them (to do good deeds) and offer your prayers in the way you saw me offering my prayers, and when the stated time for the prayer becomes due, then one of you should pronounce its call (i.e. the Adhan), and the eldest of you should lead you in prayer. (Using translation from Bukhārī 6008)

[Machine] We came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ while we were young, and we stayed with him for about twenty nights or days. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to us, "If you return to your families or your lands, inform them." And the Messenger of Allah ﷺ was compassionate. He said, "Instruct them to pray such prayer at such time, and such prayer at such time. And when the prayer is due, let one of you give the adhan, and then let the oldest among you lead the prayer." And this is the wording of a hadith narrated by 'Aarim.
