(53) – باب مَنْ أَحَقُّ بِالإِمَامَةِ
(53) – Who is more entitled to lead the prayer
Sahih Muslim 674e
This hadith has been narrated with the same chain of transmitters, but al-Hadra' made this addition:" They both were equal in recitation."
وَحَدَّثَنَاهُ أَبُو سَعِيدٍ الأَشَجُّ، حَدَّثَنَا حَفْصٌ، - يَعْنِي ابْنَ غِيَاثٍ - حَدَّثَنَا خَالِدٌ الْحَذَّاءُ، بِهَذَا الإِسْنَادِ وَزَادَ قَالَ الْحَذَّاءُ وَكَانَا مُتَقَارِبَيْنِ فِي الْقِرَاءَةِ .
