Chapter 2 · Prayer (Kitab Al-Salat)حَدَّثَنَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ نُمَيْرٍ، عَنِ الْأَعْمَشِ، عَنْ إِسْمَاعِيلَ بْنِ رَجَاءٍ، عَنْ أَوْسِ بْنِ ضَمْعَجٍ الْحَضْرَمِيِّ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ أَبَا مَسْعُودٍ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، بِهَذَا الْحَدِيثِ، قَالَ: فَإِنْ كَانُوا فِي الْقِرَاءَةِ سَوَاءً فَأَعْلَمُهُمْ بِالسُّنَّةِ، فَإِنْ كَانُوا فِي السُّنَّةِ سَوَاءً فَأَقْدَمُهُمْ هِجْرَةً، وَلَمْ يَقُلْ: فَأَقْدَمُهُمْ قِرَاءَةً، قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُد: رَوَاهُ حَجَّاجُ بْنُ أَرْطَاةَ، عَنْ إِسْمَاعِيلَ، قَالَ: وَلَا تَقْعُدْ عَلَى تَكْرِمَةِ أَحَدٍ إِلَّا بِإِذْنِهِ.

The Messenger o Allah ﷺ said: “If they are equally versed in recitation, then the one who has most knowledge of the Sunnah; if they are equal with regard to (the knowledge of) the Sunnah, then the earliest of them to emigrate (to Madina)”. He did not narrate the words; “ The earliest of them in recitation”. Abu Dawud said: Hajjaj bin Artata reported from Ismail: Do not sit in the place of honour of anyone except with his permission.
