أَخْبَرَنَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ ، عَنْ إِسْحَاق بْنِ يَحْيَى بْنِ طَلْحَةَ ، عَنْ الْمُسَيَّبِ بْنِ رَافِعٍ ، وَمَعْبَدِ بْنِ خَالِدٍ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ يَزِيدَ الْخَطْمِيِّ وَكَانَ أَمِيرًا عَلَى الْكُوفَةِ ، قَالَ : أَتَيْنَا قَيْسَ بْنَ سَعْدِ بْنِ عُبَادَةَ فِي بَيْتِهِ، فَأَذَّنَ الْمُؤَذِّنِ لِلصَّلَاةِ، وَقُلْنَا لِقَيْسٍ : قُمْ فَصَلِّ لَنَا، فَقَالَ : لَمْ أَكُنْ لِأُصَلِّيَ بِقَوْمٍ لَسْتُ عَلَيْهِمْ بِأَمِيرٍ، فَقَالَ رَجُلٌ لَيْسَ بِدُونِهِ.
يُقَالُ لَهُ : عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ حَنْظَلَةَ بْنِ الْغَسِيلِ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ :" الرَّجُلُ أَحَقُّ بِصَدْرِ دَابَّتِهِ، وَصَدْرِ فِرَاشِهِ، وَأَنْ يَؤُمَّ فِي رَحْلِهِ "، فَقَالَ قَيْسُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ عِنْدَ ذَلِكَ : يَا فُلَانُ لِمَوْلًى لَهُ : قُمْ فَصَلِّ لَهُمْ

Saeed bin Sulaiman told us, on the authority of Ishaq bin Yahya bin Talha, on the authority of Al-Musayyab bin Rafi’, and Ma’bad bin Khalid, on the authority of Abdullah Ibn Yazid Al-Khattimi, who was the Emir of Kufa, said: We came to Qays Ibn Saad Ibn Ubadah in his house, so the muezzin called for prayer, and we said Laqais: Get up and pray for us. He said: I would not lead people in prayer over whom I do not have a leader. Then a man who is not without him said.
He is called: Abdullah bin Hanzalah bin Al-Ghaseel: The Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, said: “A man has more right to the chest of his animal, and the his bed, and to lead him on his journey.” Then Qais bin Sa’d said at that: O so-and-so’s servant of his: get up and pray for them.
