ahmad:4155Muḥammad b. Jaʿfar And Ḥajjāj > Shuʿbah > Saʿd b. Ibrāhīm > Abū ʿUbaydah

[Machine] The translation is: "It was reported that when the Messenger of Allah ﷺ sat down in the first two units (rak'ahs) of prayer, it was as if he was sitting on a cushion. I (Saad) said, 'Until when should I wait before standing (from the sitting position)?' He replied, 'Until he stands up.' Hajjaj said, 'Shu'bah reported that Saad used to move his lips with something during prayer, so I asked, 'Until when should I wait before standing?' He replied, 'Until he stands up.'"  

أحمد:٤١٥٥حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ وَحَجَّاجٌ قَالَا حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ عَنْ سَعْدِ بْنِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِي عُبَيْدَةَ قَالَ حَجَّاجٌ فِي حَدِيثِهِ سَمِعْتُ أَبَا عُبَيْدَةَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ كَانَ إِذَا قَعَدَ فِي الرَّكْعَتَيْنِ الْأُولَيَيْنِ كَأَنَّهُ عَلَى الرَّضْفِ قُلْتُ لِسَعْدٍ حَتَّى يَقُومَ؟قَالَ حَتَّى يَقُومَ قَالَ حَجَّاحٌ قَالَ شُعْبَةُ كَانَ سَعْدٌ يُحَرِّكُ شَفَتَهُ بِشَيْءٍ فَقُلْتُ حَتَّى يَقُومَ؟ قَالَ حَتَّى يَقُومَ

كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ إِذَا جَلَسَ فِي الرَّكْعَتَيْنِ الأُولَيَيْنِ كَأَنَّهُ عَلَى الرَّضْفِ قَالَ شُعْبَةُ ثُمَّ حَرَّكَ سَعْدٌ شَفَتَيْهِ بِشَيْءٍ فَأَقُولُ حَتَّى يَقُومَ فَيَقُولُ حَتَّى يَقُومَ  

قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ إِلاَّ أَنَّ أَبَا عُبَيْدَةَ لَمْ يَسْمَعْ مِنْ أَبِيهِ وَالْعَمَلُ عَلَى هَذَا عِنْدَ أَهْلِ الْعِلْمِ يَخْتَارُونَ أَنْ لاَ يُطِيلَ الرَّجُلُ الْقُعُودَ فِي الرَّكْعَتَيْنِ الأُولَيَيْنِ وَلاَ يَزِيدَ عَلَى التَّشَهُّدِ شَيْئًا وَقَالُوا إِنْ زَادَ عَلَى التَّشَهُّدِ فَعَلَيْهِ سَجْدَتَا السَّهْوِ هَكَذَا رُوِيَ عَنِ الشَّعْبِيِّ وَغَيْرِهِ
