Muwatta MalikHadith Number 14
حَدَّثَنِي يَحْيَى، قَالَ مَالِكٌ: «مَضَتِ السُّنَّةُ الَّتِي لَا اخْتِلَافَ فِيهَا عِنْدَنَا، فِي وَقْتِ الْفِطْرِ وَالْأَضْحَى، أَنَّ الْإِمَامَ يَخْرُجُ مِنْ مَنْزِلِهِ قَدْرَ مَا يَبْلُغُ مُصَلَّاهُ، وَقَدْ حَلَّتِ الصَّلَاةُ» قَالَ يَحْيَى: وَسُئِلَ مَالِكٌ عَنْ رَجُلٍ صَلَّى مَعَ الْإِمَامِ، هَلْ لَهُ أَنْ يَنْصَرِفَ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَسْمَعَ الْخُطْبَةَ؟ فَقَالَ: «لَا يَنْصَرِفُ حَتَّى يَنْصَرِفَ الْإِمَامُ»
Malik Narrated from:
The sunna concerning the time of prayer on the ids of Fitr and Adha - and there is no disagreement amongst us about it - is that the imam leaves his house and as soon as he has reached the place of prayer the prayer falls due. Yahya said that Malik was asked whether a man who prayed with the imam could leave before the khutba, and he said, "He should not leave until the imam leaves."
