Muwatta Malik #231
Jumu'a
The Arabic includes the chain of narration (sanad) and the collector's commentary; the English translation shows the Prophet's words only.
وَحَدَّثَنِي عَنْ مَالِكٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، عَنْ ثَعْلَبَةَ بْنِ أَبِي مَالِكٍ الْقُرَظِيِّ، أَنَّهُ أَخْبَرَهُ أَنَّهُمْ، كَانُوا فِي زَمَانِ عُمَرَ بْنِ الْخَطَّابِ يُصَلُّونَ يَوْمَ الْجُمُعَةِ حَتَّى يَخْرُجَ عُمَرُ فَإِذَا خَرَجَ عُمَرُ وَجَلَسَ عَلَى الْمِنْبَرِ وَأَذَّنَ الْمُؤَذِّنُونَ - قَالَ ثَعْلَبَةُ - جَلَسْنَا نَتَحَدَّثُ فَإِذَا سَكَتَ الْمُؤَذِّنُونَ وَقَامَ عُمَرُ يَخْطُبُ أَنْصَتْنَا فَلَمْ يَتَكَلَّمْ مِنَّا أَحَدٌ . قَالَ ابْنُ شِهَابٍ فَخُرُوجُ الإِمَامِ يَقْطَعُ الصَّلاَةَ وَكَلاَمُهُ يَقْطَعُ الْكَلاَمَ .
Yahya related to me from Malik from Ibn Shihab that Thalaba ibn
Abi Malik al Quradhi informed him that in the time of Umar ibn al
Khattab they used to pray on the day of jumua until Umar came out, and
when Umar came out and sat on the mimbar and the muadhdhins called the
adhan, they would sit and talk, and then when the muadhdhins were
silent and Umar stood to give the khutba, they would pay attention and
no-one would speak .
Ibn Shihab said, "The imam coming out
stops prayer and his speaking stops conversation."
