muslim:376bʿUbaydullāh b. Muʿādh al-ʿAnbarī from my father > Shuʿbah > ʿAbd al-ʿAzīz b. Ṣuhayb > Anas b. Mālik

(The people) stood up for prayer and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ was talking in whispers with a man, and he did not discontinue the conversation till his Companions dozed off; he then came and led the prayer.  

مسلم:٣٧٦bحَدَّثَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مُعَاذٍ الْعَنْبَرِيُّ حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ عَنْ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ بْنِ صُهَيْبٍ سَمِعَ أَنَسَ بْنَ مَالِكٍ قَالَ

أُقِيمَتِ الصَّلاَةُ وَالنَّبِيُّ ﷺ يُنَاجِي رَجُلاً فَلَمْ يَزَلْ يُنَاجِيهِ حَتَّى نَامَ أَصْحَابُهُ ثُمَّ جَاءَ فَصَلَّى بِهِمْ
