Sahih Muslim Hadith 1534 – Who is more

English

[1534] 291 – ( … ) It was narrated that Ism'Il bin Rajâ' said: "I heard 'Aws bin am'aj say: 'I heard Abü Mas'üd say: "The Messenger of Allah said to us: 'The people should be led in prayer by the one who recites the most of the Book of Allah and who has been reciting it for longer. If they are equal in recitation (of the Qur'ân), then they should be led by the one who emigrated earlier. If they are equal in terms of emigration, then they should be led by the one who is oldest. Do not lead a man in prayer among his family nor in his place of authority, and do not sit in his place of honor in his house, unless he gives you permission," or "with his permission."
