Chapter 2 · Prayer (Kitab Al-Salat)الإِمَامِ يَقُومُ مَكَانًا أَرْفَعَ مِنْ مَكَانِ الْقَوْمِ
حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ سِنَانٍ، وَأَحْمَدُ بْنُ الْفُرَاتِ أَبُو مَسْعُودٍ الرَّازِيُّ الْمَعْنَى، قَالَا: حَدَّثَنَا يَعْلَى، حَدَّثَنَا الْأَعْمَشُ، عَنْإِبْرَاهِيمَ، عَنْ هَمَّامٍ، أَنَّ حُذَيْفَةَ أَمَّ النَّاسَ بِالْمَدَائِنِ عَلَى دُكَّانٍ، فَأَخَذَ أَبُو مَسْعُودٍ بِقَمِيصِهِ فَجَبَذَهُ، فَلَمَّا فَرَغَ مِنْ صَلَاتِهِ، قَالَ: أَلَمْ تَعْلَمْ أَنَّهُمْ كَانُوا يُنْهَوْنَ عَنْ ذَلِكَ ؟ ، قَالَ: بَلَى، قَدْ ذَكَرْتُ حِينَ مَدَدْتَنِي.

On The Imam Standing In A Location Above The Level Of Congregation
Hudhaifah رضی اللہ عنہ led the people in prayer in al-Mada’in standing on the shop (or a bench). Abu Masud رضی اللہ عنہ took him by his shirt, and brought him down. When he ( Abu Masud) finished his prayer, he said: Do you not know that they (the people) were prohibited to do so. He said: Yes, I remembered when you pulled me down.
