From him, from Fadalah, from Mu‘awiyah ibn Wahb, he said: Abu Abdillah عليه السلام, peace be upon him, said: “The first to deliver a sermon while sitting was Mu‘awiyah, and he sought permission from the people for that due to a pain that was in his knees. So he would deliver one sermon while sitting and one sermon while standing, then he would sit between the two.” Then Imam عليه السلام said: “The sermon while standing consists of two sermons, between which he sits a sitting during which he does not speak, lasting the amount of time that serves as a separation between the two sermons.”
