حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ نُمَيْرٍ، حَدَّثَنَا الْعَلَاءُ بْنُ صَالِحٍ، عَنْ عَدِيِّ بْنِ ثَابِتٍ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو رَاشِدٍ قَالَ:، ، خَطَبَنَا عَمَّارٌ، فَتَجَوَّزَ فِي خُطْبَتِهِ، فَقَالَ لَهُ رَجُلٌ مِنْ قُرَيْشٍ: لَقَدْ قُلْتَ قَوْلًا شِفَاءً، فَلَوْ أَنَّكَ أَطَلْتَ، فَقَالَ: " إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، نَهَى أَنْ نُطِيلَ الْخُطْبَةَ " (١)،

English translation

Abu Wa'il (may Allah have mercy on him) says that once Ammar (may Allah be pleased with him) delivered to us an extremely eloquent and concise sermon. When he descended from the pulpit, a man from the Quraysh said, "O Abu al-Yaqzan! You have delivered a very eloquent and concise sermon; it would have been excellent if you had spoken at greater length." He replied, "The Noble Prophet (ﷺ) forbade lengthy sermons."
