[Machine] "My people came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ after they had finished reading the Qur'an, and when they had fulfilled their needs, they asked him who would lead them in prayer. He said, 'The one among you who has memorized the most of the Qur'an or who has learned the most from the Qur'an.' They returned to their people and asked them, but they did not find anyone who had memorized or learned more of the Qur'an than me. So they appointed me as their leader, even though I was just a young boy, and I used to lead them in prayer."
قَدِمَ قَوْمِي إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ بَعْدَ مَا قَرَءُوا الْقُرْآنَ فَلَمَّا قَضَوْا حَوَائِجَهُمْ فَسَأَلُوهُ مَنْ يَؤُمُّهُمْ؟ فَقَالَ أَكْثَرُكُمْ جَمْعًا لِلْقُرْآنِ أَوْ أَخْذًا لِلْقُرْآنِ قَالَ فَرَجَعُوا إِلَى قَوْمِهِمْ فَسَأَلُوهُمْ فَلَمْ يَجِدُوا أَحَدًا أَجْمَعَ أَوْ آخِذًا لِلْقُرْآنِ مِنِّي قَالَ فَقَدَّمُونِي وَأَنَا غُلَامٌ وَكُنْتُ أُصَلِّي لَهُمْ أَوْ أُصَلِّي بِهِمْ قَالَ فَمَا شَهِدْتُ مَجْمَعًا إِلَّا كُنْتُ إِمَامَهُمْ
