حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامُ بْنُ عَمَّارٍ حَدَّثَنَا الْهِقْلُ بْنُ زِيَادٍ حَدَّثَنَا الْأَوْزَاعِيُّ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَامِرٍ الْأَسْلَمِيِّ عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ شُعَيْبٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ جَدِّهِ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ لَا يَقُصُّ عَلَی النَّاسِ إِلَّا أَمِيرٌ أَوْ مَأْمُورٌ أَوْ مُرَائٍ
ابن ماجہ · Hadith 3753
It was narrated from 'Amr bin Shu'aib, from his father, from his grandfather, that the Messenger of Allah(saw) said: "No one tells stories to the people (for the purpose of exhortation) except a ruler, one appointed by a ruler, or a show-off." (Hasan)
