Abu Sulaymān, Mālik ibn al-Huwayrith, (may Allah be pleased with him) reported: We came to the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) when we were young and of about the same age. We stayed with him for twenty nights. The Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) was merciful and compassionate; so, he realized our longing for our families. He asked us about our families whom we had left behind and we told him about them.

Thereupon, he said: "Go back to your families and stay with them. Teach them (religion) and command them (to adhere to it), perform so-and-so prayer at so-and-so time, and when prayer becomes due, let one of you call the Adhān and let the oldest among you lead you in prayer." Another version by Al-Bukhāri has this addition: "Pray as you saw me pray.”

عن أبي سليمان مالك بن الحويرث رضي الله عنه قال: أَتَينَا رسُول الله -صلَّى الله عليه وسلَّم- ونَحنُ شَبَبَةٌ مُتَقَارِبُون، فَأَقَمْنَا عِندَهُ عِشْرِينَ لَيلَةً، وَكَان رَسُولُ الله -صلَّى الله عليه وسلَّم- رَحِيمًا رَفِيقًا، فَظَنَّ أَنَّا قَدْ اشْتَقْنَا أَهْلَنَا، فَسَألَنا عمَّنْ تَرَكْنا مِنْ أَهلِنا، فأَخبَرنَاه، فقال: «ارْجِعُوا إلى أَهْلِيكُم، فَأَقِيمُوا فيهم، وَعَلِّمُوهُم وَمُرُوهُم، وَصَلُّوا صَلاَةَ كَذَا في حِينِ كذَا، وصَلُّوا كَذَا في حِينِ كَذَا، فَإِذا حَضَرَتِ الصلاةُ فَلْيُؤذِّن لكم أَحَدُكُم وَلْيَؤُمَّكُم أكبركم». زاد البخاري في رواية له: «وصَلُّوا كَمَا رَأَيتُمُونِي أُصَلِّي».
