Arabic hadith text

وَعَنْ كَعْبِ بْنِ عُجْرَةَ: أَنَّهُ دَخَلَ الْمَسْجِدَ وَعَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ أُمِّ الْحَكَمِ يَخْطُبُ قَاعِدًا فَقَالَ: انْظُرُوا إِلَى هَذَا الْخَبِيثِ يَخْطُبُ قَاعِدًا وَقد قَالَ الله تَعَالَى: (وَإِذَا رَأَوْا تِجَارَةً أَوْ لَهْوًا انْفَضُّوا إِلَيْهَا وَتَرَكُوك قَائِما) رَوَاهُ مُسلم

Ka’b ibn Ujra entered the mosque while Abd al-Rahman ibn Umm al-Hakam was preaching seated. He said: Look at this vile man, preaching seated, when God, Most High, says: When they see merchandise or amusement, they disperse toward it and leave you standing. Muslim transmitted it.
