when the Iqamah was pronounced for prayer during the time of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, the people would take their seats before the prophet ﷺ came to his seat.  

أبو داود:٥٤١ – حَدَّثَنَا مَحْمُودُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ حَدَّثَنَا الْوَلِيدُ قَالَ قَالَ أَبُو عَمْرٍو ح وَحَدَّثَنَا دَاوُدُ بْنُ رُشَيْدٍ حَدَّثَنَا الْوَلِيدُ وَهَذَا لَفْظُهُ عَنِ الأَوْزَاعِيِّ عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ

أَنَّ الصَّلاَةَ كَانَتْ تُقَامُ لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَيَأْخُذُ النَّاسُ مَقَامَهُمْ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَأْخُذَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ

Abu Salama reported on the authority of Abu Huraira that when Iqama was pronounced for the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, the people occupied their places in the rows before the Messenger of Allah (way peace be upon him) stood up at his place.  

مسلم:٦٠٥c – وَحَدَّثَنِي إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ مُوسَى أَخْبَرَنَا الْوَلِيدُ بْنُ مُسْلِمٍ عَنِ الأَوْزَاعِيِّ عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو سَلَمَةَ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ
