Establishing the Prayer and the Sunnah Regarding Them
كتاب إقامة الصلاة والسنة فيها
(47) Chapter: What is incumbent upon the Imam
(47) باب مَا يَجِبُ عَلَى الإِمَامِ
Sunan Ibn Majah 981
Abu Hazim
said:
“Sahl bin Sa’d As-Sa’idi used to give preference to
the
young to lead his people in prayer. It was said to him: “Do you do
that, when you have such seniority (in Islam)?” He said: “I heard
the
Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) say: ‘The Imam is responsible. If he
does
well, then he will have the reward and so will they, but if he
does
badly, then that will be counted against him but not against
them.’”
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْحَمِيدِ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ، أَخُو فُلَيْحٍ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو حَازِمٍ، قَالَ كَانَ سَهْلُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ السَّاعِدِيُّ يُقَدِّمُ فِتْيَانَ قَوْمِهِ يُصَلُّونَ بِهِمْ فَقِيلَ لَهُ تَفْعَلُ وَلَكَ مِنَ الْقِدَمِ مَا لَكَ قَالَ إِنِّي سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ يَقُولُ
" الإِمَامُ ضَامِنٌ، فَإِنْ أَحْسَنَ، فَلَهُ وَلَهُمْ، وَإِنْ أَسَاءَ - يَعْنِي - فَعَلَيْهِ وَلاَ عَلَيْهِمْ " .
