حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ إِدْرِيسَ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ إِسْحَقَ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ أَبِي أُمَامَةَ بْنِ سَهْلٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ کَعْبِ بْنِ مَالِکٍ وَکَانَ قَائِدَ أَبِيهِ بَعْدَ مَا ذَهَبَ بَصَرُهُ عَنْ أَبِيهِ کَعْبِ بْنِ مَالِکٍ أَنَّهُ کَانَ إِذَا سَمِعَ النِّدَائَ يَوْمَ الْجُمُعَةِ تَرَحَّمَ لِأَسْعَدَ بْنِ زُرَارَةَ فَقُلْتُ لَهُ إِذَا سَمِعْتَ النِّدَائَ تَرَحَّمْتَ لِأَسْعَدَ بْنِ زُرَارَةَ قَالَ لِأَنَّهُ أَوَّلُ مَنْ جَمَّعَ بِنَا فِي هَزْمِ النَّبِيتِ مِنْ حَرَّةِ بَنِي بَيَاضَةَ فِي نَقِيعٍ يُقَالُ لَهُ نَقِيعُ الْخَضَمَاتِ قُلْتُ کَمْ أَنْتُمْ يَوْمَئِذٍ قَالَ أَرْبَعُونَ
سنن ابودوٗد · Hadith 1069
Narrated Kab ibn Malik: Abdur Rahman ibn Kab ibn Malik said: When Kab ibn Malik heard the call to prayer on Friday, he prayed for Asad ibn Zurarah. I asked him: What is the matter that when you hear the call to prayer, you pray for Asad ibn Zurarah? He replied: This is because he held the Friday prayer for the first time for us at Hazm an-Nabit of Harrah belonging to Banu Bayadah in Naqi', called Naqi' al-Khadumat. I asked him: How many were you at that time ? He said: Forty.
