حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا الْأَعْمَشُ، عَنْ إِسْمَاعِيلَ بْنِ، ، رَجَاءٍ، عَنْ أَوْسِ بْنِ ضَمْعَجٍ، عَنْ أَبِي مَسْعُودٍ الْأَنْصَارِيِّ، قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " لِيَؤُمَّ الْقَوْمَ أَقْرَؤُهُمْ لِكِتَابِ اللهِ تَعَالَى، فَإِنْ كَانُوا فِي الْقِرَاءَةِ سَوَاءً فَأَعْلَمُهُمْ بِالسُّنَّةِ، فَإِنْ كَانُوا فِي السُّنَّةِ سَوَاءً، فَأَقْدَمُهُمْ هِجْرَةً، فَإِنْ كَانُوا فِي الْهِجْرَةِ سَوَاءً، فَأَكْبَرُهُمْ سِنًّا، وَلَا يُؤَمَّنَّ رَجُلٌ فِي سُلْطَانِهِ وَلَا يُجْلَسْ عَلَى تَكْرِمَتِهِ فِي بَيْتِهِ إِلَّا أَنْ يَأْذَنَ " (١)، ،

It is narrated from Abu Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (ﷺ) said: "The one who should lead the people in prayer is the one among them who is the best reciter of the Qur'an and has the most knowledge of its recitation. If they are equal in recitation, then the one who migrated first should lead. If they are also equal in migration, then the oldest among them should lead. No one should lead in another person's house or domain except with his permission, and likewise, no one should sit in a place of honor in someone else's house except with his permission."
