Hazrat Marrah bin Shurahbeel says that I was in a room in which Hazrat Abdullah bin Mas’ud (may Allah be pleased with him), Hazrat Hudhaifah (may Allah be pleased with him), and Hazrat Abu Musa Ash’ari (may Allah be pleased with him) were also present. Meanwhile, the time for prayer arrived. Each one said to the other,“You go ahead (to lead).”Hazrat Abdullah was between Hazrat Abu Musa and Hazrat Hudhaifah (may Allah be pleased with them). Both of them took hold of him and put him forward. I asked,“What is the reason for his precedence?”They replied,“He participated in the Battle of Badr.”
