عَنِ الْحَسَنِ مُرْسَلًا قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «مَنْ جَاءَهُ الْمَوْتُ وَهُوَ يَطْلُبُ الْعِلْمَ لِيُحْيِيَ بِهِ الْإِسْلَامَ فَبَيْنَهُ وَبَيْنَ النَّبِيِّينَ دَرَجَةٌ وَاحِدَةٌ فِي الْجَنَّةِ» . رَوَاهُ الدَّارمِيّ
Translation
Ikrima reported Ibn ‘Abbas as saying, “Talk to the people onceevery Friday, but if you object, then twice, and if you want more, thenthree times, but do not weary the people with this Qur’an. And do notlet me find you coming to the people when they are talking about theirconcerns, interrupting them in their talk by addressing them, and sowearying them. Keep silent, and when they request you, talk to themat a time when they want it. Look out for rhymed prose in supplications and avoid it, for I know that God’s messenger and his companionsdid not use it.” Bukhari transmitted it.
