حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدَةُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ أَخْبَرَنَا زَيْدٌ يَعْنِي ابْنَ الْحُبَابِ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ صَالِحٍ حَدَّثَنِي حُصَيْنٌ مِنْ وَلَدِ سَعْدِ بْنِ مُعَاذٍ عَنْ أُسَيْدِ بْنِ حُضَيْرٍ أَنَّهُ کَانَ يَؤُمُّهُمْ قَالَ فَجَائَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَعُودُهُ فَقَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنَّ إِمَامَنَا مَرِيضٌ فَقَالَ إِذَا صَلَّی قَاعِدًا فَصَلُّوا قُعُودًا قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُد وَهَذَا الْحَدِيثُ لَيْسَ بِمُتَّصِلٍ
سنن ابودوٗد · Hadith 607
Husain reported on the authority of the children of Saad bin Muadh that Usaid bin Hudair used to act as their Imam. (when he fell ill) the Messenger of Allah ﷺ came to him inquiring about his illness. They said: Messenger of Allah, our Imam is ill. He said: When he prays sitting, pray sitting. Abu Dawud said: The chain of this tradition is not continuous (muttasil)
