He (ie: Imām Aḥmad) was asked regarding a man (ie: Imām) who led people in prayer for a salary?
سألته عن الرجل يصلي بالناس في رمضان بأجر؟

He replied (in shock): “Does anyone really do that?”
قال: وهل يفعل هذا أحد؟

(So the questioner) said: “A lot of (Imāms) do this.”
قلت له: أكثر من ذاك.

He (ie: Aḥmad): “Do not pray behind such a person, as there is no dignity in that.”
قال: لا يصلي خلفه ولا كرامة.
