[Machine] My father had prayed behind the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , when he was sixteen years old. Abu Bakr, Umar, and Uthman said, "No, young ones are not allowed to speak."
كَانَ أَبِي قَدْ صَلَّى خَلْفَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ وَهُوَ ابْنُ سِتَّ عَشْرَةَ سَنَةً وَأَبِي بَكْرٍ وَعُمَرَ وَعُثْمَانَ قَالَ لَا أَيْ بُنَيَّ مُحْدَثٌ
"I said to my father: 'O my father! You offered Salat behind Messenger of Allah (S), Abu Bakr, Umar, Uthman, and Ali bin Abi Talib here in Al-Kufah for about five years. Did they say the Qunut?' He said: 'It is a newly invented matter my son.'" (Using translation from Tirmidhī 402)
قُلْتُ لِأَبِي يَا أَبَتِ إِنَّكَ قَدْ صَلَّيْتَ خَلْفَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ وَأَبِي بَكْرٍ وَعُمَرَ وَعُثْمَانَ وَعَلِيٍّ هَاهُنَا بِالْكُوفَةِ قَرِيبًا مِنْ خَمْسِ سِنِينَ أَكَانُوا يَقْنُتُونَ؟ قَالَ أَيْ بُنَيَّ مُحْدَثٌ
[Machine] "My father used to pray behind the Messenger of Allah ﷺ when he was sixteen years old, along with Abu Bakr, Umar, and Uthman. So I asked him, 'Did they used to show devotion (khushu')?' He said, 'No, my son, they were not like that, they were conversing.'"
كَانَ أَبِي قَدْ صَلَّى خَلْفَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ وَهُوَ ابْنُ سِتَّ عَشْرَةَ سَنَةً وَأَبِي بَكْرٍ وَعُمَرَ وَعُثْمَانَ فَقُلْتُ لَهُ أَكَانُوا يَقْنُتُونَ؟ قَالَ لَا أَيْ بُنَيَّ مُحْدَثٌ
