مَا أَدْرَكْتَ مَعَ الْإِمَامِ فَهُوَ أَوَّلُ صَلَاتِكَ وَاقْضِ مَا سَبَقَكَ بِهِ مِنَ الْقُرْآنِ أَخْبَرَنَاهُ أَبُو عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ السُّلَمِيُّ أنبأ عَلِيُّ بْنُ عُمَرَ الْحَافِظُ ثنا أَبُو بَكْرٍ النَّيْسَابُورِيُّ ثنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى ثنا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ أنبأ مَعْمَرٌ عَنْ قَتَادَةَ فَذَكَرَهُ قَالَ وَثنا مَعْمَرٌ عَنْ قَتَادَةَ عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ الْمُسَيِّبِ مِثْلَ قَوْلِ عَلِيِّ بْنِ أَبِي طَالِبٍ ؓ هَذَا وَإِنْ كَانَ مُرْسَلًا عَنْ عَلِيٍّ ؓ فَهُوَ شَاهِدٌ لِرِوَايَةِ الْحَارِثِ عَنْ عَلِيٍّ ؓ البيهقي ٣٦٣٣: عن
English Translation
'What you catch with the imam is the beginning of your prayer, and make up what he preceded you in of the Quran.' Abu Abd al-Rahman al-Sulami informed us, Ali ibn Umar al-Hafiz informed us, Abu Bakr al-Naysaburi narrated to us, Muhammad ibn Yahya narrated to us, Abd al-Razzaq narrated to us, Ma'mar informed us from Qatadah who mentioned it. He said: And Ma'mar narrated to us from Qatadah from Sa'id ibn al-Musayyib, the same as the statement of Ali ibn Abi Talib (may Allah be pleased with him). This, even if it is mursal from Ali (may Allah be pleased with him), is a supporting witness for al-Harith's narration from Ali (may Allah be pleased with him).
