حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَاصِمٍ قَالَ: أَنْبَأَنَا عَبْدُ الْحَمِيدِ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا صَالِحُ بْنُ أَبِي عَرِيبٍ، عَنْ كَثِيرِ بْنِ مُرَّةَ، عَنْ عَوْفِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ قَالَ: دَخَلَ عَوْفُ بْنُ مَالِكٍ مَسْجِدَ حِمْصَ قَالَ: وَإِذَا النَّاسُ عَلَى رَجُلٍ، فَقَالَ: مَا هَذِهِ الْجَمَاعَةُ؟ قَالُوا: كَعْبٌ يَقُصُّ، قَالَ: يَا وَيْحَهُ، أَلَا سَمِعَ قَوْلَ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ " لَا يَقُصُّ إِلَّا أَمِيرٌ أَوْ مَأْمُورٌ أَوْ مُخْتَالٌ " (٢)، ،

Once, Awf bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) and Dhu’l-Kila’ entered the Al-Aqsa Mosque, that is, Bayt al-Maqdis. Awf (may Allah be pleased with him) said to him, “You have your nephew (Ka’b Ahbar) with you.” Dhu’l-Kila’ said, “He is the best man among all people.” Awf (may Allah be pleased with him) said, “I bear witness that I heard the Noble Prophet (ﷺ) say: Only he may deliver admonition who is a leader, or has been given its command and permission, or else he is being pretentious (showing off).”
