Amr bin Salama reported,

We were settled at a watering place, and the riders, Ismail once said "the people," would pass by us returning from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. I would draw near to them and listen, until I had memorized portions of the Quran. The people were holding back their conversion until Mecca was conquered. When it was conquered, a man would come to him and say, "Messenger of Allah, I am the delegate of such-and-such tribe, and I have brought you their acceptance of Islam."So my father set out with the Islam of his people. When he returned to them, he said, "The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'Let the one among you with the most Quran lead you in prayer.'"They looked around, and I was in a large encampment, and they did not find anyone among them who knew more Quran than I did. So they put me forward, though I was just a boy, and I led them in prayer wearing a cloak. Whenever I bowed or prostrated, it would ride up and expose my private parts.After we had prayed, an old woman among us said, "Cover the backside of your reciter from us!"So they cut a shirt for me, and he mentioned that he rejoiced over it greatly.

Sahih

حدثنا إسماعيل أخبرنا أيوب

عن عمرو بن سلمة قال

كنا على حاضر فكان الركبان وقال إسماعيل مرة الناس يمرون بنا راجعين من عند رسول الله ﷺ فأدنو منهم فأسمع حتى حفظت قرآنا وكان الناس ينتظرون بإسلامهم فتح مكة فلما فتحت جعل الرجل يأتيه فيقول يا رسول الله أنا وافد بني فلان وجئتك بإسلامهم فانطلق أبي بإسلام قومه فرجع إليهم فقال قال رسول الله ﷺ قدموا أكثركم قرآنا قال فنظروا وأنا لعلى حواء عظيم فما وجدوا فيهم أحدا أكثر قرآنا مني فقدموني وأنا غلام فصليت بهم وعلي بردة وكنت إذا ركعت أو سجدت قلصت فتبدو عورتي فلما صلينا تقول عجوز لنا دهرية غطوا عنا است قارئكم قال فقطعوا لي قميصا فذكر أنه فرح به فرحا شديدا
