كَانَ يَأْمُرُ الْمُهَاجِرِينَ أَنْ يَتَقَدَّمُوا وَأَنْ يَكُونُوا مُقَدَّمَ الصُّفُوفِ وَيَقُولُ هُمْ أَعْلَمُ بِالصَّلاةِ مِنَ السُّفَهَاءِ وَالأَعْرَابِ ولاَ أُحِبُّ أَنْ تَكُونَ الأَعْرَابُ أَمَامَهُمْ ولاَ يَدْرُونَ كَيْفَ الصَّلاةُوَهَذَا الْكَلامُ لا نعلَمُ أحَدًا رَوَاهُ عَنِ النَّبِيّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيه وَسَلَّم بِهَذَا اللَّفْظِ إلاَّ سَمُرة بِهَذَا الإِسْنَادِ

tabarani:7085 – Samurah b. Jundub

[Machine] "The Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to instruct the Muhajireen and the Ansar to be at the forefront of the rows (during prayer) and he would say, 'They are more knowledgeable about prayer than the Bedouins and the ignorant ones. Others should follow them, and I do not prefer that the Bedouins be in front of them, as they do not know how to pray.'"

الطبراني:٧٠٨٥ – وَبِإِسْنَادِهِ عَنْ سَمُرَةَ بْنِ جُنْدُبٍ

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ كَانَ يَأْمُرُ الْمُهَاجِرِينَ وَالْأَنْصَارَ أَنْ يَكُونُوا فِي مُقَدَّمِ الصُّفُوفِ وَيَقُولُ «هُمْ أَعْلَمُ بِالصَّلَاةِ مِنَ الْأَعْرَابِ وَالسُّفَهَاءِ وَيَأْتَمُّ بِهِمْ مَنْ وَرَاءَهُمْ وَلَا أُحِبُّ أَنْ يَكُونَ الْأَعْرَابُ قُدَّامَهُمْ لَا يَدْرُونَ كَيْفَ الصَّلَاةُ»
