The one who is most versed in Allah's Book should act as Imam for the people, but If they are equally versed in reciting it, then the one who has most knowledge regarding Sunnah if they are equal regarding the Sunnah, then the earliest one to emigrate; it they emigrated at the same time, then the earliest one to embrace Islam. No man must lead another in prayer where (the latter) has authority, or sit in his place of honour in his house, without his permission. Ashajj in his narration used the word," age" in place of" Islam".  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَؤُمُّ الْقَوْمَ أَقْرَؤُهُمْ لِكِتَابِ اللَّهِ فَإِنْ كَانُوا فِي الْقِرَاءَةِ سَوَاءً فَأَعْلَمُهُمْ بِالسُّنَّةِ فَإِنْ كَانُوا فِي السُّنَّةِ سَوَاءً فَأَقْدَمُهُمْ هِجْرَةً فَإِنْ كَانُوا فِي الْهِجْرَةِ سَوَاءً فَأَقْدَمُهُمْ سِلْمًا وَلاَ يَؤُمَّنَّ الرَّجُلُ الرَّجُلَ فِي سُلْطَانِهِ وَلاَ يَقْعُدْ فِي بَيْتِهِ عَلَى تَكْرِمَتِهِ إِلاَّ بِإِذْنِهِ قَالَ الأَشَجُّ فِي رِوَايَتِهِ مَكَانَ سِلْمًا سِنًّا  

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to us: The one who is well grounded in Allah's Book and is distinguished among them in recitation should act as; Imam for the people. and if they are equally versed in reciting it, then the one who has most knowledge regarding Sunnah; if they are equal regarding the Sunnah, then the earliest one to emigrate; If they emigrated at the same time, then the oldest one in age. No man must lead another in prayer in latter's house or where (the latter) has authority, or sit in his place of honour in his house, except that he gives you permission or with his permission.  

لَنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَؤُمُّ الْقَوْمَ أَقْرَؤُهُمْ لِكِتَابِ اللَّهِ وَأَقْدَمُهُمْ قِرَاءَةً فَإِنْ كَانَتْ قِرَاءَتُهُمْ سَوَاءً فَلْيَؤُمَّهُمْ أَقْدَمُهُمْ هِجْرَةً فَإِنْ كَانُوا فِي الْهِجْرَةِ سَوَاءً فَلْيَؤُمَّهُمْ أَكْبَرُهُمْ سِنًّا وَلاَ تَؤُمَّنَّ الرَّجُلَ فِي أَهْلِهِ وَلاَ فِي سُلْطَانِهِ وَلاَ تَجْلِسْ عَلَى تَكْرِمَتِهِ فِي بَيْتِهِ إِلاَّ أَنْ يَأْذَنَ لَكَ أَوْ بِإِذْنِهِ  

"The Messenger of Allah ﷺsaid: 'Let the one who has most knowledge of the Book of Allah lead the people in prayer. If they are equal in terms of knowledge of the Qur'h, let the one who emigrated first (lead them). If they are equal in terms of emigration, let the one who has more knowledge of the Sunnah, (lead them). If they are equal in terms of knowledge of the Sunnah, let the one who is oldest (lead them). Do not lead a man in prayer in his place of authority, and do not sit in his place of honor, unless he gives you permission."'  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَؤُمُّ الْقَوْمَ أَقْرَؤُهُمْ لِكِتَابِ اللَّهِ فَإِنْ كَانُوا فِي الْقِرَاءَةِ سَوَاءً فَأَقْدَمُهُمْ فِي الْهِجْرَةِ فَإِنْ كَانُوا فِي الْهِجْرَةِ سَوَاءً فَأَعْلَمُهُمْ بِالسُّنَّةِ فَإِنْ كَانُوا فِي السُّنَّةِ سَوَاءً فَأَقْدَمُهُمْ سِنًّا وَلاَ تَؤُمَّ الرَّجُلَ فِي سُلْطَانِهِ وَلاَ تَقْعُدْ عَلَى تَكْرِمَتِهِ إِلاَّ أَنْ يَأْذَنَ لَكَ  

The one of you who is most versed in the Books of Allah should act as imam for the people; and the one who is the earliest of them in reciting (the Qur’an); if they are equally versed in reciting it, then the earliest of them to emigrate (to Medina); if they emigrated at the same time, then the oldest of them. No man must lead another in prayer in his house (i.e. in the house of a latter) or where the latter has authority, or sit in his place of honor without his permission. Shu’bah said: I asked Isma’il: what is the meaning of his place of honor? He replied: his throne.  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَؤُمُّ الْقَوْمَ أَقْرَؤُهُمْ لِكِتَابِ اللَّهِ وَأَقْدَمُهُمْ قِرَاءَةً فَإِنْ كَانُوا فِي الْقِرَاءَةِ سَوَاءً فَلْيَؤُمَّهُمْ أَقْدَمُهُمْ هِجْرَةً فَإِنْ كَانُوا فِي الْهِجْرَةِ سَوَاءً فَلْيَؤُمَّهُمْ أَكْبَرُهُمْ سِنًّا وَلاَ يُؤَمُّ الرَّجُلُ فِي بَيْتِهِ وَلاَ فِي سُلْطَانِهِ وَلاَ يُجْلَسُ عَلَى تَكْرِمَتِهِ إِلاَّ بِإِذْنِهِ قَالَ شُعْبَةُ فَقُلْتُ لإِسْمَاعِيلَ مَا تَكْرِمَتُهُ قَالَ فِرَاشُهُ  

Messenger of Allah said: "The one who recites most of the Book of Allah is to lead the people (in prayers). If they are equal in recitation, then the most knowledgeable in the Sunnah among them. If they are equal regarding the Sunnah, then the earliest of them to emigrate. If they are equal in their emigration then the eldest among them. And a man is not to be led in prayer in the place of his authority, and his spot of esteem in his home is not to be sat on without his permission."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَؤُمُّ الْقَوْمَ أَقْرَؤُهُمْ لِكِتَابِ اللَّهِ فَإِنْ كَانُوا فِي الْقِرَاءَةِ سَوَاءً فَأَعْلَمُهُمْ بِالسُّنَّةِ فَإِنْ كَانُوا فِي السُّنَّةِ سَوَاءً فَأَقْدَمُهُمْ هِجْرَةً فَإِنْ كَانُوا فِي الْهِجْرَةِ سَوَاءً فَأَكْبَرُهُمْ سِنًّا وَلاَ يُؤَمُّ الرَّجُلُ فِي سُلْطَانِهِ وَلاَ يُجْلَسُ عَلَى تَكْرِمَتِهِ فِي بَيْتِهِ إِلاَّ بِإِذْنِهِ قَالَ مَحْمُودُ بْنُ غَيْلاَنَ قَالَ ابْنُ نُمَيْرٍ فِي حَدِيثِهِ أَقْدَمُهُمْ سِنًّا  

“The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: ‘The people should be lead by the one who is most well-Versed in recitation of the Book of Allah.

No man must lead another in prayer in latter's house or where (the latter) has authority, or sit in his place of honour in his house, except that he gives you permission or with his permission.

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "The one with the most seniority in migration should lead the people.

[Machine] Abu al-Walid, Ibn Kathir, and al-Hawdi said: Shu'bah narrated to us, he said: Isma'il bin Rajaa informed us, from Aws bin Dam'aj, from Abu Mas'ud al-Badri, who said: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "The people should follow the one who has the most knowledge of the Book of Allah. If their recitation is equal, then the one who migrated earlier should lead them. If they are equal in migration, then the one who is older in age should lead them. A man should not lead another man in his house, nor in his land, nor sit on his cushion without his permission."  

حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْوَلِيدِ وَابْنُ كَثِيرٍ وَالْحَوْضِيُّ قَالُوا حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ رَجَاءٍ عَنْ أَوْسِ بْنِ ضَمْعَجٍ عَنْ أَبِي مَسْعُودٍ الْبَدْرِيِّ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «يَؤُمُّ الْقَوْمُ أَقْرَؤُهُمْ لِكِتَابِ اللَّهِ فَإِنْ كَانَتْ قِرَاءَتُهُمْ سَوَاءً فَلْيَؤُمَّهُمْ أَقْدَمُهُمْ هِجْرَةً فَإِنْ كَانُوا فِي الْهِجْرَةِ سَوَاءً فَلْيَؤُمَّهُمْ أَكْبَرُهُمْ سِنًّا وَلَا يَؤُمُّ الرَّجُلُ الرَّجُلَ فِي بَيْتِهِ وَلَا فِي فُسْطَاطِهِ وَلَا يَقْعُدُ عَلَى تَكْرِمَتِهِ إِلَّا بِإِذْنِهِ»  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "Lead the people in prayer, the one among them who is most knowledgeable of the Book of Allah. And if they are equal in recitation, then let the one who is oldest in age lead. No man should lead in the prayer in his own authority, and do not sit on his seat of honor in his house without his permission."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «يَؤُمُّ الْقَوْمَ أَقْرَؤُهُمْ لِكِتَابِ اللهِ فَإِنْ كَانُوا فِي الْقِرَاءَةِ سَوَاءً فَأَقْدَمُهُمْ سِنًّا وَلَا يُؤَمَّنَّ رَجُلٌ فِي سُلْطَانِهِ وَلَا تَقْعُدْ عَلَى تَكْرِمَتِهِ فِي بَيْتِهِ إلَّا أَنْ يَأْذَنَ لَكَ»  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Let your most proficient person in reciting the Quran lead you in prayer. If your recitations are equal, then let the one who migrated first be the leader. If your migrations were also equal, then let the oldest among you be the leader. No person should lead another in his authority or in his family, and do not sit on his seat of honor without his permission."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «لِيَؤُمَّكُمْ أَقْرَؤُكُمْ لِلْقُرْآنِ فَإِنْ كَانَتْ قِرَاءَتُكُمْ وَاحِدَةً فَأَقْدَمُكُمْ هِجْرَةً فَإِنْ كَانَتْ هِجْرَتُكُمْ وَاحِدَةً فَأَقْدَمُكُمْ سِنًّا وَلَا يَؤُمُّ رَجُلٌ رَجُلًا فِي سُلْطَانِهِ وَلَا فِي أَهْلِهِ وَلَا تَجْلِسْ عَلَى تَكْرِمَتِهِ إِلَّا أَنْ يَأْذَنَ لَكَ»  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "The one who leads the people in prayer is usually the one who has the most knowledge of the Quran. If they are equal in their knowledge of the Quran, then the one who made the migration earlier is the leader. If their migration dates are the same, then the one who has the most understanding of the religion is the leader. If their understanding of the religion is the same, then the oldest among them is the leader. No man should be trusted in his authority or be allowed to sit on his honorable seat in his house without his permission."

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ said, "Lead the people in prayer whoever among them has the most knowledge of the Book of Allah. If they are equal in their knowledge of the Book, then inform them with the Sunnah. If they are equal in their knowledge of the Sunnah, then let the one who embraced Islam earlier lead them in prayer. Do not lead a man in his authority, and do not sit on his honorable place in his house unless he gives you permission."  

قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «يَؤُمُّ الْقَوْمَ أَقْرَؤُهُمْ لِكِتَابِ اللهِ فَإِنْ كَانُوا فِي الْهِجْرَةِ سَوَاءً فَأَعْلَمُهُمْ بِالسُّنَّةِ فَإِنْ كَانُوا فِيهَا سَوَاءً فَأَقْدَمُهُمْ إسْلَامًا وَلَا تَؤُمَّ رَجُلًا فِي سُلْطَانِهِ وَلَا تَجْلِسْ عَلَى تَكْرِمَتِهِ فِي بَيْتِهِ إلَّا أَنْ يَأْذَنَ لَكَ»  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "The person who has the most knowledge of the Book of Allah should lead the congregation, and the one who has performed the earliest migration. If they are equal in these aspects, then let the one who has more knowledge of the Sunnah lead them. And if they are equal in all of these, then let the oldest among them lead. No one should lead a group in their authority or sit upon their honorable place in their home without their permission."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «يَؤُمُّ الْقَوْمَ أَقْرَؤُهُمْ لِكِتَابِ اللهِ وَأَقْدَمُهُمْ هِجْرَةُ فَإِنْ كَانُوا سَوَاءً فَأَعْلَمُهُمْ بِالسُّنَّةِ فَإِنْ كَانُوا فِيهَا سَوَاءً فَأَكْبَرُهُمْ سِنًّا وَلَا يُؤَمُّ رَجُلٌ فِي سُلْطَانِهِ وَلَا يُجْلَسُ عَلَى تَكْرِمَتِهِ فِي بَيْتِهِ إِلَّا بِإِذْنِهِ»

If they are equal in their knowledge of the Sunnah, then the one who migrated first should lead them. If they are equal in their migration, then the eldest among them should lead. And no man should be trusted with authority or sit on his position of honor except with his permission."

[Machine] On the authority of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , he said, "Lead the people in prayer, the one who is most knowledgeable of the Book of Allah. If they are equal in recitation, then inform them of the Sunnah. If they are equal in knowledge of the Sunnah, then the one who migrated first. If they are equal in migration, then the one who is older in age. Do not lead anyone in his own domain, and do not sit on his cushion in his house unless he gives you permission."  

عَنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ «يَؤُمُّ الْقَوْمَ أَقْرَؤُهُمْ لِكِتَابِ اللهِ فَإِنْ كَانُوا فِي الْقِرَاءَةِ سَوَاءً فَأَعْلَمُهُمْ بِالسُّنَّةِ فَإِنْ كَانُوا فِي عِلْمِ السُّنَّةِ سَوَاءً فَأَقْدَمُهُمْ هِجْرَةً فَإِنْ كَانُوا فِي الْهِجْرَةِ سَوَاءً فَأَقْدَمُهُمْ سِنًّا وَلَا تَؤُمَّ أَحَدًا فِي إِمْرَتِهِ وَلَا تَجْلِسْ عَلَى تَكْرِمَتِهِ فِي بَيْتِهِ إِلَّا أَنْ يَأْذَنَ لَكَ»  

"The Messenger of Allah ﷺsaid: 'Let the one who has most knowledge of the Book of Allah lead the people in prayer. If they are equal in terms of knowledge of the Qur'h, let the one who emigrated first (lead them). If they are equal in terms of emigration, let the one who has more knowledge of the Sunnah, (lead them). If they are equal in terms of knowledge of the Sunnah, let the one who is oldest (lead them). Do not lead a man in prayer in his place of authority, and do not sit in his place of honor, unless he gives you permission."' (Using translation from Nasāʾī 780)  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «يَؤُمُّ الْقَوْمَ أَقْرَؤُهُمْ لِكِتَابِ اللهِ فَإِنْ كَانُوا فِي الْقِرَاءَةِ سَوَاءً فَأَقْدَمُهُمْ هِجْرَةً فَإِنْ كَانُوا فِي الْهِجْرَةِ سَوَاءً فَأَعْلَمُهُمْ بِالسُّنَّةِ فَإِنْ كَانُوا فِي السُّنَّةِ سَوَاءً فَأَقْدَمُهُمْ سِنًّا وَلَا تَؤُمَّنَّ أَحَدًا فِي سُلْطَانِهِ وَلَا تَجْلِسْ عَلَى تَكْرِمَتِهِ فِي بَيْتِهِ إلَّا أَنْ يَأْذَنَ لَكَ»  

[Machine] On the authority of the Prophet ﷺ , he said: "The person who is most knowledgeable about the Book of Allah should lead the people in prayer. If their recitation is on an equal level, then the person who migrated first should lead. If their migration is equal, then the person who is older should lead. A man should not lead the prayer in his own household or in a position of authority over others. And he should not sit on his elevated place of honor except with his permission, unless he gives you permission." Shu'bah asked him, "What is his place of honor?" He replied, "His bed." And the wording of the hadith is from the narration of Hujjaj.  

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ «يَؤُمُّ الْقَوْمَ أَقْرَؤُهُمْ لِكِتَابِ اللهِ فَإِنْ كَانَتْ قِرَاءَتُهُمْ سَوَاءً فَأَقْدَمُهُمْ هِجْرَةً فَإِنْ كَانَتْ هِجْرَتُهُمْ سَوَاءً فَأَقْدَمُهُمْ سِنًّا وَلَا يُؤَمُّ الرَّجُلُ فِي أَهْلِهِ وَلَا فِي سُلْطَانِهِ وَلَا يُجْلَسُ عَلَى تَكْرِمَتِهِ إِلَّا بِإِذْنِهِ إِلَّا أَنْ يَأْذَنَ لَكَ» قَالَ شُعْبَةُ فَقُلْتُ لَهُ مَا تَكْرِمَتُهُ؟ قَالَ فِرَاشُهُ وَاللَّفْظُ لِحَدِيثِ حَجَّاجٍ  

[Machine] I heard the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , say, "The person who leads the prayer should be the one who is most knowledgeable of the Book of Allah. If they are equal in recitation, then the one who migrated first should lead. If they are equal in migration, then the elder should lead. A person is not considered trustworthy in his authority, nor in his family, and he should not be allowed to sit in a place of honor unless permission is granted to him."  

سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ «يَؤُمُّ الْقَوْمَ أَقْرَؤُهُمْ لِكِتَابِ اللهِ فَإِنْ كَانُوا فِي الْقِرَاءَةِ سَوَاءً فَأَقْدَمُهُمْ هِجْرَةً فَإِنْ كَانُوا فِي الْهِجْرَةِ سَوَاءً فَأَقْدَمُهُمْ سِنًّا وَلَا يُؤَمَّنَّ الرَّجُلُ فِي سُلْطَانِهِ وَلَا فِي أَهْلِهِ وَلَا يُجْلَسُ عَلَى تَكْرِمَتِهِ إِلَّا أَنْ يَأْذَنَ لَهُ»  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "The person who leads the people in prayer is the one who made the earliest migration. If their migration was equal, then it is the one who is older. If they are equal in age, then it is the one who knows the Quran the best."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «يَؤُمُّ الْقَوْمَ أَقْدَمُهُمْ هِجْرَةً فَإِنْ كَانَتْ هِجْرَتُهُمْ سَوَاءً فَأَقْدَمُهُمْ سِنًّا فَإِنْ كَانُوا فِي السِّنِّ سَوَاءً فَأَقْرَؤُهُمْ»  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , said, "The person who knows the Quran the most should be the one to lead others in prayer. If they are equal in recitation, then the one who made the earliest migration should lead. If they are equal in migration, then the one who is older should lead. Do not appoint a ruler over his domain without his permission, and do not sit on his mattress without his permission."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «يَؤُمُّ الْقَوْمَ أَقْرَؤُهُمْ لِكِتَابِ اللهِ فَإِنْ كَانُوا فِي الْقِرَاءَةِ سَوَاءً فَأَقْدَمُهُمْ هِجْرَةً فَإِنْ كَانُوا فِي الْهِجْرَةِ سَوَاءً فَأَقْدَمُهُمْ سِنًّا وَلَا تَؤُمَّنَّ ذَا سُلْطَانٍ فِي سُلْطَانِهِ وَلَا تَجْلِسْ عَلَى تَكْرِمَتِهِ إِلَّا بِإِذْنِهِ»  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "The leader of a people should be the one who migrated first. If they all migrated at the same time, then the one who has the most knowledge of the religion should be their leader. If they are all equal in knowledge, then the one who is most proficient in reciting the Quran should be their leader. No man should lead others in his authority nor should he sit upon his honored place except with his permission."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «يَؤُمُّ الْقَوْمَ أَقْدَمُهُمْ هِجْرَةً فَإِنْ كَانُوا فِي الْهِجْرَةِ سَوَاءً فَأَفْقَهُهُمْ فِي الدِّينِ فَإِنْ كَانُوا فِي الْفِقْهِ سَوَاءً فَأَقْرَؤُهُمْ لِلْقُرْآنِ وَلَا يُؤَمُّ الرَّجُلُ فِي سُلْطَانِهِ وَلَا يُقْعَدُ عَلَى تَكْرِمَتِهِ إِلَّا بِإِذْنِهِ»  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "The one who is most knowledgeable of the Book of Allah should lead the people in prayer. If they are equal in recitation, then the one who is most knowledgeable of the Sunnah (traditions) should lead them. If they are equal in knowledge, then the one who made the earliest migration should lead them. If they are equal in migration, then the one who is older should lead them. A person should not appoint another person as a ruler over his authority, and he should not sit on his honored seat in his house without his permission."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «يَؤُمُّ الْقَوْمَ أَقْرَؤُهُمْ لِكِتَابِ اللهِ فَإِنْ كَانُوا فِي الْقِرَاءَةِ سَوَاءً فَأَعْلَمُهُمْ بِالسُّنَّةِ فَإِنْ كَانُوا فِي الْعِلْمِ سَوَاءً فَأَقْدَمُهُمْ هِجْرَةً فَإِنْ كَانُوا فِي الْهِجْرَةِ سَوَاءً فَأَقْدَمُهُمْ سِنًّا وَلَا يَؤُمُّ الرَّجُلُ الرَّجُلَ فِي سُلْطَانِهِ وَلَا يَقْعُدُ عَلَى تَكْرِمَتِهِ فِي بَيْتِهِ إِلَّا بِإِذْنِهِ»  

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ said: "The most deserving of people to lead the prayer is the one who is most knowledgeable of the Book of Allah. And if they are equal in recitation, then the one who has more knowledge of the Sunnah. And if they are equal in knowledge of the Sunnah, then the one who migrated first. And if they are equal in migration, then the one who is older. And no man should be trusted in his leadership, nor should you sit in his place of honor in his house, except with his permission."  

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ قَالَ «أَحَقُّ الْقَوْمِ بِأَنْ يَؤُمَّهُمْ أَقْرَؤُهُمْ لِكِتَابِ اللهِ فَإِنْ كَانُوا فِي الْقِرَاءَةِ سَوَاءً فَأَعْلَمُهُمْ بِالسُّنَّةِ فَإِنْ كَانُوا فِي السُّنَّةِ سَوَاءً فَأَقْدَمُهُمْ هِجْرَةً فَإِنْ كَانُوا فِي الْهِجْرَةِ سَوَاءً فَأَقْدَمُهُمْ سِنًّا وَلَا يُؤَمَّنَّ رَجُلٌ فِي سُلْطَانِهِ وَلَا تَقْعُدَنَّ عَلَى تَكْرِمَتِهِ فِي بَيْتِهِ إلَّا أَنْ يَأْذَنَ لَكَ»  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "The most knowledgeable among the people should lead them in prayer. If they are equal in recitation, then the one who immigrated (to Medina) earlier should lead. If they are equal in immigration, then the one who knows the Sunnah the best should lead. If they are equal in knowledge, then the oldest among them should lead. No one should lead others in their authority, and you should not sit in the place of honor in their home without their permission."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «يَؤُمُّ الْقَوْمَ أَقْرَؤُهُمْ فَإِنْ كَانُوا فِي الْقِرَاءَةِ سَوَاءً فَأَقْدَمُهُمْ هِجْرَةً فَإِنْ كَانُوا فِي الْهِجْرَةِ سَوَاءً فَأَعْلَمُهُمْ بِالسُّنَّةِ فَإِنْ كَانُوا فِي الْعِلْمِ سَوَاءً فَأَقْدَمُهُمْ سِنًّا وَلَا يُؤَمَّنَّ رَجُلٌ فِي سُلْطَانِهِ وَلَا تَجْلِسَنَّ عَلَى تَكْرِمَتِهِ فِي بَيْتِهِ إلَّا أَنْ يَأْذَنَ لَكَ»  

[Machine] Narrated by the Prophet ﷺ , "The leader of the people should be the most knowledgeable about the Book of Allah. If they are equal in recitation, then the most knowledgeable about the Sunnah, and if they are equal in the Sunnah, then the one who migrated earlier. If they are equal in migration, then the oldest among them in age. No man should be trusted with authority over his subjects, and do not sit on his bed without his permission." Zaidah asked Sulaiman, "Does his bed refer to the head of his bed?" He replied, "Yes."  

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ «يَؤُمُّ الْقَوْمَ أَقْرَؤُهُمْ لِكِتَابِ اللهِ فَإِنْ كَانُوا فِي الْقِرَاءَةِ سَوَاءً فَأعْلَمُهُمْ بِالسُّنَّةِ فَإِنْ كَانُوا فِي السُّنَّةِ سَوَاءً فَأَقْدَمُهُمْ هِجْرَةً فَإِنْ كَانُوا فِي الْهِجْرَةِ سَوَاءً فَأَقْدَمُهُمْ سِنًّا وَلَا يُؤَمَّنَّ رَجُلٌ فِي سُلْطَانِهِ وَلَا تَقْعُدْ عَلَى تَكْرِمَتِهِ فِي بَيْتِهِ إلَّا أَنْ يَأْذَنَ لَكَ» قَالَ زَائِدَةُ فَقُلْتُ لِسُلَيْمَانَ تَكْرِمَتُهُ صَدْرُ فِرَاشِهِ؟ قَالَ نَعَمْ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "The one who has the most knowledge of the Book of Allah should lead the people in prayer. If they are equal in recitation, then the one who has more knowledge of the Sunnah should teach them. If they are equal in knowledge of the Sunnah, then the one who is older should lead them in prayer. He should not be led in prayer in his own authority, and no one should sit on his pulpit except with his permission."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «يَؤُمُّ الْقَوْمَ أَقْرَؤُهُمْ لِكِتَابِ اللهِ فَإِنْ كَانُوا فِي الْقِرَاءَةِ سَوَاءً فَأَعْلِمْهُمْ بِالسُّنَّةِ فَإِنْ كَانُوا فِي السُّنَّةِِ سَوَاءً فَأَكْبَرُهُمْ سِنًّا وَلَا يُؤَمُّ فِي سُلْطَانِهِ وَلَا يُجْلَسُ عَلَى تَكْرِمَتِهِ إِلَّا بِإِذْنِهِ»  

"The Messenger of Allah ﷺsaid: 'Let the one who has most knowledge of the Book of Allah lead the people in prayer. If they are equal in terms of knowledge of the Qur'h, let the one who emigrated first (lead them). If they are equal in terms of emigration, let the one who has more knowledge of the Sunnah, (lead them). If they are equal in terms of knowledge of the Sunnah, let the one who is oldest (lead them). Do not lead a man in prayer in his place of authority, and do not sit in his place of honor, unless he gives you permission."' (Using translation from Nasāʾī 780)  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «يَؤُمُّ الْقَوْمُ أَقْرَؤُهُمْ لِكِتَابِ اللهِ فَإِنْ كَانُوا فِي الْقِرَاءَةِ سَوَاءً فَأَقْدَمُهُمْ فِي الْهِجْرَةِ فَإِنْ كَانُوا فِي الْهِجْرَةِ سَوَاءً فَأَعْلَمُهُمْ بِالسُّنَّةِ فَإِنْ كَانُوا فِي السُّنَّةِ سَوَاءً فَأَقْدَمُهُمْ سِنًّا وَلَا تَؤُمَّ الرَّجُلَ فِي سُلْطَانِهِ وَلَا تَقْعُدْ عَلَى تَكْرِمَتِهِ فِي بَيْتِهِ إِلَّا أَنْ يَأْذَنَ لَكَ»  

The one who is most versed in Allah's Book should act as Imam for the people, but If they are equally versed in reciting it, then the one who has most knowledge regarding Sunnah if they are equal regarding the Sunnah, then the earliest one to emigrate; it they emigrated at the same time, then the earliest one to embrace Islam. No man must lead another in prayer where (the latter) has authority, or sit in his place of honour in his house, without his permission. Ashajj in his narration used the word," age" in place of" Islam". (Using translation from Muslim 673a)   

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَؤُمُّ الْقَوْمَ أَقْرَؤُهُمْ لِكِتَابِ اللهِ فَإِنْ كَانُوا فِي الْقِرَاءَةِ سَوَاءً أَظُنُّهُ قَالَ فَأَعْلَمُهُمْ لِلسُّنَّةِ فَإِنْ كَانُوا فِي السُّنَّةِ سَوَاءً فَأَقْدَمُهُمْ هِجْرَةً فَإِنْ كَانُوا فِي الْهِجْرَةِ سَوَاءً فَأَقْدَمُهُمْ سِنًّا وَلَا يُؤَمُّ الرَّجُلُ فِي سُلْطَانِهِ وَلَا يُجْلَسُ عَلَى تَكْرِمَتِهِ فِي بَيْتِهِ إِلَّا بِإِذْنِهِ

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "He who leads the people in prayer should be the one who knows the Qur'an the most. If they are equal in recitation of the Qur'an, then the one who migrated earlier should lead them. If they are equal in migration, then the one who has more understanding of the religion should lead them. If they are equal in religious understanding, then the eldest among them should lead. No man should be appointed leader over his own authority or sit on his own honor without permission." This was narrated by Jarir ibn Hazim from Al-A'mash, and it was narrated by a group from Al-A'mash with the same wording.  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَؤُمُّ الْقَوْمَ أَكْثَرُهُمْ قُرْآنًا فَإِنْ كَانُوا فِي الْقُرْآنِ وَاحِدًا فَأَقْدَمُهُمْ هِجْرَةً فَإِنْ كَانَتِ الْهِجْرَةُ وَاحِدَةً فَأَكْثَرُهُمْ فِقْهًا فَإِنْ كَانَ الْفِقْهُ وَاحِدًا فَأَكْبَرُهُمْ سِنًّا وَلَا يُؤَمَّنَّ رَجُلٌ فِي سُلْطَانِهِ وَلَا يُجْلَسُ عَلَى تَكْرِمَتِهِ فِي بَيْتِهِ إِلَّا أَنْ يَأْذَنَ لَهُ كَذَا قَالَهُ جَرِيرُ بْنُ حَازِمٍ عَنِ الْأَعْمَشِ وَرَوَاهُ جَمَاعَةٌ عَنِ الْأَعْمَشِ عَلَى اللَّفْظِ الْأَوَّلِ  

The one who is most versed in Allah's Book should act as Imam for the people, but If they are equally versed in reciting it, then the one who has most knowledge regarding Sunnah if they are equal regarding the Sunnah, then the earliest one to emigrate; it they emigrated at the same time, then the earliest one to embrace Islam.

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "The one who leads you in prayer should be the most knowledgeable among you of the Book of Allah, and the one who has the most recitation of the Qur'an. If your recitations are equal, then the one who immigrated first [to Islam] should lead. And if your immigration is equal, then the one who is older should lead. No man should lead another man in his own authority, nor should he sit on his honor except with his permission."  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ يَؤُمُّكُمْ أَقْرَؤُكُمْ لِكِتَابِ اللهِ وَأَقْدَمُكُمْ قِرَاءَةً لِلْقُرْآنِ فَإِنْ كَانَتْ قِرَاءَتُكُمْ سَوَاءً فَأَقْدَمُكُمْ هِجْرَةً فَإِنْ كَانَتْ هِجْرَتُكُمْ سَوَاءً فَأَقْدَمُكُمْ سِنًّا وَلَا يَؤُمُّ رَجُلٌ رَجُلًا فِي سُلْطَانِهِ وَلَا فِي أَهْلِهِ وَلَا يَجْلِسُ عَلَى تَكْرِمَتِهِ إِلَّا بِإِذْنِهِ
