أَخْبَرَنَا مُوسَى بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ الْمَسْرُوقِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا حُسَيْنُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ، عَنْ زَائِدَةَ، عَنْ سُفْيَانَ، عَنْ أَيُّوبَ، قال: حَدَّثَنِيعَمْرُو بْنُ سَلَمَةَ الْجَرْمِيُّ، قال: كَانَ يَمُرُّ عَلَيْنَا الرُّكْبَانُ فَنَتَعَلَّمُ مِنْهُمُ الْقُرْآنَ فَأَتَى أَبِي النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَقَالَ: لِيَؤُمَّكُمْ أَكْثَرُكُمْ قُرْآنًا فَجَاءَ أَبِي فَقَالَ إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: لِيَؤُمَّكُمْ أَكْثَرُكُمْ قُرْآنًا فَنَظَرُوا فَكُنْتُ أَكْثَرَهُمْ قُرْآنًا فَكُنْتُ أَؤُمُّهُمْ وَأَنَا ابْنُ ثَمَانِ سِنِينَ .
عمرو بن سلمہ جرمی رضی اللہ عنہ کہتے ہیں کہ ہمارے پاس سے قافلے گزرتے تھے تو ہم ان سے قرآن سیکھتے تھے ( جب ) میرے والد نبی اکرم صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم کے پاس آئے، تو آپ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم نے فرمایا: تم میں سے امامت وہ آدمی کرے جسے قرآن زیادہ یاد ہو ، تو جب میرے والد لوٹ کر آئے تو انہوں نے کہا کہ رسول اللہ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم نے فرمایا ہے: تم میں سے امامت وہ آدمی کرے جسے قرآن زیادہ یاد ہو ، تو لوگوں نے نگاہ دوڑائی تو ان میں سب سے بڑا قاری میں ہی تھا، چنانچہ میں ہی ان کی امامت کرتا تھا، اور اس وقت میں آٹھ سال کا بچہ تھا ۱؎۔
Amr bin Salamah Al-Jarmi said: Riders used to pass by us and we would leam the Qur'an from them. My father came to the Prophet (ﷺ) and he said: 'Let the one of you who knows most Qur'an leads the prayer.' My father came and said that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) had said: 'Let the one of you who knows most Quran lead you in prayer.' They looked and found that I was the one who knew most Qur'an, so I used to lead them in prayer when I was eight years old.'
