[Machine] Ibn Umar and Zaid bin Thabit used to say the takbir and perform the ruku' when they come to the imam while he is in the ruku' position.  

كَانَ ابْنُ عُمَرَ وَزَيْدُ بْنُ ثَابِتٍ إِذَا أَتَيَا الْإِمَامَ وَهُوَ رَاكِعٌ كَبَّرَا تَكْبِيرَةً وَيَرْكَعَانِ بِهَا  

(Another chain) with similar meaning. (Using translation from Tirmidhī 3093)   

عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ  

[Machine] If he (the imam) catches up with them while they are bowing, prostrating, or sitting, he should make two takbeers. Malik said, "As for the bowing and prostration, that is what we know. But as for the two takbeers for sitting, I do not know this." I said, "Does he make one takbeer to start with and sit with it?" He (Malik) said, "Yes." The sheikh said, "If this narration of Ibn Mas'ud is authentic, it is possible that he meant it for the prostration, so he made the takbeer for the opening supplication. When he finished the opening supplication, the imam raised his voice with one takbeer and sat with it. He (the follower) follows him in his supplications and actions, and the same goes for the prostration. He (the imam) intended the imam's takbeer for prostration after the opening supplication for the prayer and his following of it. And Allah knows best.  

إِنْ أَدْرَكَهُمْ رُكُوعًا أَوْ سُجُودًا أَوْ جُلُوسًا يُكَبِّرُ تَكْبِيرَتَيْنِ فَقَالَ مَالِكٌ أَمَّا فِي الرُّكُوعِ وَالسُّجُودِ فَذَلِكَ الْأَمْرُ الَّذِي نَعْرِفُهُ وَأَمَّا تَكْبِيرَتَيْنِ لِلْجُلُوسِ فَإِنِّي لَا أَعْرِفُ هَذَا قُلْتُ يُكَبِّرُ وَاحِدَةً يَسْتَفْتِحُ بِهَا وَيَجْلِسُ بِهَا؟ قَالَ نَعَمْ قَالَ الشَّيْخُ إِنْ صَحَّ هَذَا عَنِ ابْنِ مَسْعُودِ فَيُحْتَمَلُ أَنْ يَكُونَ أَرَادَ بِهِ فِي السُّجُودِ فَكَبَّرَ لِلِافِتِتَاحِ فَلَمَّا فَرَغَ مِنَ الِافْتِتَاحِ رَفَعَ الْإِمَامُ بِتَكْبِيرَةٍ وَقَعَدَ فَيُوَافِقُهُ فِي أَذْكَارِهِ وَأَفْعَالِهِ وَكَذَلِكَ فِي السُّجُودِ أَرَادَ أَنْ يَكُونَ تَكْبِيرُ الْإِمَامِ لِلسُّجُودِ بَعْدَ افْتِتَاحِهِ لِلصَّلَاةِ وَاقْتِدَائِهِ بِهِ وَاللهُ أَعْلَمُ  

[Machine] If he catches them in a bowing position, he will say two Takbirs, one Takbir for the opening of the prayer, and one Takbir for the bowing, and he has caught the Rak'ah.  

إِذَا أَدْرَكَهُمْ رُكُوعًا كَبَّرَ تَكْبِيرَتَيْنِ تَكْبِيرَةً لِافْتِتَاحِ الصَّلَاةِ وَتَكْبِيرَةً لِلرُّكُوعِ وَقَدْ أَدْرَكَ الرَّكْعَةَ  

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ one day led us in the prayer. and when he completed the Prayer he turned his face towards us and said: 0 People, I am your Imam, so do not precede me in bowing and prostration and in standing and turning (faces, i. e. In pronouncing salutation), for I see you in front of me and behind me, and then said: By Him in Whose hand Is the life of Muhammad, if you could see what I see, you would have laughed little and wept much more. They said: What did you see, Messenger of Allah? He replied: (I saw) Paradise and Hell. (Using translation from Muslim 426a)   

صَلَّى بِنَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ ذَاتَ يَوْمٍ فَلَمَّا قَضَى الصَّلَاةَ أَقْبَلَ عَلَيْنَا بِوَجْهِهِ فَقَالَ أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ إِنِّي إِمَامُكُمْ فَلَا تَسْبِقُونِي بِالرُّكُوعِ وَلَا بِالسُّجُودِ وَلَا بِالْقِيَامِ وَلَا بِالِانْصِرَافِ فَإِنِّي أَرَاكُمْ أَمَامِي وَمِنْ خَلْفِي ثُمَّ قَالَ وَالَّذِي نَفْسُ مُحَمَّدٍ بِيَدِهِ لَوْ رَأَيْتُمْ مَا رَأَيْتُ لَضَحِكْتُمْ قَلِيلًا وَلَبَكَيْتُمْ كَثِيرًا قَالُوا وَمَا رَأَيْتَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ؟ قَالَ رَأَيْتُ الْجَنَّةَ وَالنَّارَ  

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ used to teach us not to preempt the Imam in bowing, and when he says "Allahu Akbar," say "Allahu Akbar," and when he says "not of those who have evoked [Your] anger or of those who are astray," say "Ameen." For when the words of the angels coincide with his words, the sins of those present in the mosque are forgiven. And when he prostrates, prostrate. And when he says "Allah hears whoever praises Him," say "Our Lord, and to You is the praise." And when he says "And when he prostrates," prostrate.  

كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يُعَلِّمُنَا أَنْ لَا تُبَادِرُوا الْإِمَامَ بِالرُّكُوعِ فَإِذَا كَبَّرَ فَكَبِّرُوا وَإِذَا قَالَ غَيْرِ الْمَغْضُوبِ عَلَيْهِمْ وَلَا الضَّالِّينَ فَقُولُوا آمِينَ فَإِنَّهُ إِذَا وَافَقَ كَلَامَ الْمَلَائِكَةِ غُفِرَ لِمَنْ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ وَإِذَا رَكَعَ فَارْكَعُوا وَإِذَا قَالَ سَمِعَ اللهُ لِمَنْ حَمِدَهُ فَقُولُوا رَبَّنَا وَلَكَ الْحَمْدُ وَإِذَا سَجَدَ فَاسْجُدُوا  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Indeed, the imam has been appointed to be followed, so when he says 'Allahu Akbar (Allah is the Greatest),' say 'Allahu Akbar,' and when he bows, bow, and when he raises his head, raise your heads, and when he says 'Sami Allahu liman hamidah (Allah hears whoever praises Him),' say all together 'Allahumma Rabbana lakal hamd (O Allah, our Lord, all praise is for You),' and when he prostrates, prostrate, and do not prostrate before he does, and when he raises his head, raise your heads, and do not raise your heads before he does.  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ إِنَّمَا جُعِلَ الْإِمَامُ لِيُؤْتَمَّ بِهِ فَإِذَا كَبَّرَ فَكَبِّرُوا وَإِذَا رَكَعَ فَارْكَعُوا وَإِذَا رَفَعَ رَأْسَهُ فَارْفَعُوا رُءُوسَكُمْ وَإِذَا قَالَ سَمِعَ اللهُ لِمَنْ حَمِدَهُ فَقُولُوا جَمِيعًا اللهُمَّ رَبَّنَا لَكَ الْحَمْدُ وَإِذَا سَجَدَ فَاسْجُدُوا وَلَا تَسْجُدُوا قَبْلَ أَنْ يَسْجُدَ وَإِذَا رَفَعَ رَأْسَهُ فَارْفَعُوا رُءُوسَكُمْ وَلَا تَرْفَعُوا رُءُوسَكُمْ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَرْفَعَ  

[Machine] Al-Baraa ibn Aazib narrated that they used to pray with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , so whenever he went into bowing, they would also bow, and when he raised his head from bowing, he would say, "Allah listens to the one who praises Him; Our standing will not be complete until we see him placing his face on the ground." Then we would follow him. In a narration by Ibn Abdaan, his forehead would touch the ground and then we would prostrate.  

ثنا الْبَرَاءُ بْنُ عَازِبٍ أَنَّهُمْ كَانُوا يُصَلُّونَ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَإِذَا رَكَعَ رَكَعُوا وَإِذَا رَفَعَ رَأْسَهُ مِنَ الرُّكُوعِ فَقَالَ سَمِعَ اللهُ لِمَنْ حَمِدَهُ لَمْ نَزَلْ قِيَامًا حَتَّى نَرَاهُ قَدْ وَضَعَ وَجْهَهُ عَلَى الْأَرْضِ ثُمَّ نَتَّبِعُهُ وَفِي حَدِيثِ ابْنِ عَبْدَانَ جَبْهَتَهُ بِالْأَرْضِ ثُمَّ نَسْجُدُ  

They used to say prayer behind the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. I never saw anyone bending his back at the time when he (the Holy Prophet) raised his head, till the Messenger of Allah ﷺ placed his forehead on the ground. They then fell in prostration after him. (Using translation from Muslim 474a)   

حَدَّثَنِي الْبَرَاءُ وَهُوَ غَيْرُ كَذُوبٍ أَنَّهُمْ كَانُوا يُصَلُّونَ خَلْفَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَإِذَا رَفَعَ رَأْسَهُ مِنَ الرُّكُوعِ لَمْ أَرَ أَحَدًا يَحْنِي ظَهْرَهُ حَتَّى يَضَعَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ جَبْهَتَهُ عَلَى الْأَرْضِ ثُمَّ يَخِرَّ مَنْ وَرَاءَهُ سُجَّدًا  

[Machine] He heard Muawiyah on the pulpit saying, "Verily, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'Do not hasten to bow and prostrate before me, for I am a human being. No matter how much you hasten before me when I am bowing, you will catch up with me when I rise back up. And no matter how much you hasten before me when I am prostrating, you will catch up with me when I rise back up.' And so it is."  

أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ مُعَاوِيَةَ عَلَى الْمِنْبَرِ يَقُولُ إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ لَا تَسْبِقُونِي بِالرُّكُوعِ وَالسُّجُودِ فَإِنِّي قَدْ بَدُنْتُ فَمَهْمَا أَسْبِقْكُمْ بِهِ حِينَ أَرْكَعُ تُدْرِكُونِي حِينَ أَرْفَعُ وَمَهْمَا أَسْبِقْكُمْ بِهِ حِينَ أَسْجُدُ تُدْرِكُونِي حِينَ أَرْفَعُ وَكَذَلِكَ  

[Machine] I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say, "O people, I have surpassed you in hastening in the bowing and prostration, but you surpass me in what has passed you. It has not been confirmed from our scholars whether it is 'Bedontu' or 'Baddantu', and Abu 'Ubayd chose 'Baddantu' with an emphasis and placing the dal meaning I have increased in size. Whoever says 'Bedontu' with a raised dal, then he intended excessive flesh."  

سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ يَأَيُّهَا النَّاسُ إِنِّي قَدْ بَدُنْتُ فَلَا تَسْبِقُونِي بِالرُّكُوعِ وَالسُّجُودِ وَلَكِنْ أَسْبِقُكُمْ إِنَّكُمْ تُدْرِكُونَ مَا فَاتَكُمْ لَمْ يُضْبَطْ عَنْ شُيُوخِنَا بَدُنْتُ أَوْ بَدَّنْتُ وَاخْتَارَ أَبُو عُبَيْدٍ بَدَّنْتُ بِالتَّشْدِيدِ وَنَصْبِ الدَّالِ يَعْنِي كَبِرْتُ مَنْ قَالَ بَدُنْتُ بِرَفْعِ الدَّالِ فَإِنَّهُ أَرَادَ كَثْرَةَ اللَّحْمِ  

“The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: ‘Does not the one who raises his head before the Imam fear that Allah may turn his head into the head of a donkey?’” (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 961)   

قَالَ مُحَمَّدٌ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ أَمَا يَخْشَى الَّذِي يَرْفَعُ رَأْسَهُ قَبْلَ الْإِمَامِ أَنْ يَحُوِّلَ اللهُ رَأْسَهُ رَأْسَ حِمَارٍ  

[Machine] I heard Abu al-Qasim ﷺ saying, "Doesn't the one who raises his head while the imam is in prostration fear Allah? Wouldn't Allah make his head like the head of a donkey?" Shu'bah said in his narration or depiction of his words, "like the depiction of a donkey."  

سَمِعْتُ أَبَا الْقَاسِمِ ﷺ يَقُولُ أَمَا يَخْشَى اللهَ الَّذِي يَرْفَعُ رَأْسَهُ وَالْإِمَامُ سَاجِدٌ أَنْ يَجْعَلَ اللهُ رَأْسَهُ رَأْسَ حِمَارٍ قَالَ شُعْبَةُ فِي حَدِيثِهِ أَوْ صُورَتَهُ صُورَةَ حِمَارٍ  

[Machine] "He (Prophet Muhammad ﷺ) said: 'Doesn't anyone of you fear that when he raises his head from prostration before the Imam, Allah will transform his head into the head of a donkey?'"  

أَنَّهُ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ أَمَا يَخَافُ أَحَدُكُمْ إِذَا رَفَعَ رَأْسَهُ مِنَ السُّجُودِ قَبْلَ الْإِمَامِ أَنْ يُحَوِّلَ اللهُ رَأْسَهُ رَأْسَ حِمَارٍ  

[Machine] "That the Imam has lifted up, so let him put his head down. When the Imam lifts his head up, let him stay for as long as he left. It has been narrated to us from Sha'bi and Ibrahim al-Nakha'i that he returns and prostrates."  

أَنَّ الْإِمَامَ قَدْ رَفَعَ فَلْيُعِدْ رَأْسَهُ فَإِذَا رَفَعَ الْإِمَامُ رَأْسَهُ فَلْيَمْكُثْ قَدْرَ مَا تَرَكَ وَرُوِّينَا عَنِ الشَّعْبِيِّ وَإِبْرَاهِيمَ النَّخَعِيِّ أَنَّهُ يَعُودُ فَيَسْجُدُ  

[Machine] He heard Abu Huraira say that the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , used to say takbeer when he stood up for prayer, then he would say takbeer when he bowed, then he would say, "Allah hears the one who praises Him when he raises his body from the rukoo' (bowing position)", then he would say, "And while he is standing, our Lord, praise be to You," and he mentioned the hadith.  

أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ يَقُولُ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ إِذَا قَامَ إِلَى الصَّلَاةِ يُكَبِّرُ حِينَ يَقُومُ ثُمَّ يُكَبِّرُ حِينَ يَرْكَعُ ثُمَّ يَقُولُ سَمِعَ اللهُ لِمَنْ حَمِدَهُ حِينَ يَرْفَعُ صُلْبَهُ مِنَ الرَّكْعَةِ ثُمَّ يَقُولُ وَهُوَ قَائِمٌ رَبَّنَا وَلَكَ الْحَمْدُ وَذَكَرَ الْحَدِيثَ  

My father said, "Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to raise both his hands up to the level of his shoulders when opening the prayer; and on saying the Takbir for bowing. And on raising his head from bowing he used to do the same and then say "Samiʿa l-lahu liman hamidah, Rabbana wa laka l-hamd." And he did not do that (i.e. raising his hands) in prostrations. (Using translation from Bukhārī 735)   

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ كَانَ إِذَا افْتَتَحَ الصَّلَاةَ رَفَعَ يَدَيْهِ حَذْوَ مَنْكِبَيْهِ وَإِذَا رَفَعَ مِنَ الرُّكُوعِ رَفَعَهُمَا كَذَلِكَ وَقَالَ سَمِعَ اللهُ لِمَنْ حَمِدَهُ رَبَّنَا وَلَكَ الْحَمْدُ وَكَانَ لَا يَفْعَلُ ذَلِكَ فِي السُّجُودِ  

[Machine] The messenger of Allah ﷺ used to say when he raised his head: "Allah has heard the one who praised Him. Our Lord, to You is all praise, the filling of the heavens and the earth and what is between them, and the filling of whatever You will after that."  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ كَانَ إِذَا رَفَعَ رَأْسَهُ قَالَ سَمِعَ اللهُ لِمَنْ حَمِدَهُ رَبَّنَا لَكَ الْحَمْدُ مِلْءَ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضِ وَمِلْءَ مَا بَيْنَهُمَا وَمِلْءَ مَا شِئْتَ مِنْ شَيْءٍ بَعْدُ  

When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ raised his head after bowing, he said: Allah listens to him who praises Him. O Allah, our lord, to Thee be the praise in the heavens and in all the earth, and all that it please Thee to create afterwards. Abu Dawud said: Sufyan al-Thawri and Shu’bah b. al-Hajjaj reported on authority of Ubaid b. al-Hasan: There is no mention of the words “after bowing” in this tradition. Sufyan said: we met al-shaikh ‘Ubaid b. al-Hasan; he did not say the words “bowing” in it. Abu dawud said: Shu’bah narrated this from Abi ‘Ismah, from al-A’mash, on the authority of ‘Ubaid, saying: “after bowing”. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 846)   

كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ إِذَا رَفَعَ رَأْسَهُ مِنَ الرُّكُوعِ قَالَ سَمِعَ اللهُ لِمَنْ حَمِدَهُ اللهُمَّ رَبَّنَا لَكَ الْحَمْدُ مِلْءَ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَمِلْءَ الْأَرْضِ وَمِلْءَ مَا شِئْتَ مِنْ شَيْءٍ بَعْدُ  

“When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ raised his head from Ruku’, he said: ‘Sami’ Allahu liman hamidah, Allahumma, Rabbana lakal-hamd, mil’ as-samawati wa mil’ al- ard wa mil’ ma shi’ta min shay’in ba’d (Allah hears those who praise Him. O Allah! O our Lord, to You is the praise as much as fills the heavens, as much as fills the earth and as much as You will after that).’” (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 878)   

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ كَانَ إِذَا قَالَ سَمِعَ اللهُ لِمَنْ حَمِدَهُ قَالَ رَبَّنَا لَكَ الْحَمْدُ مِلْءَ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَمِلْءَ الْأَرْضِ وَمِلْءَ مَا شِئْتَ مِنْ شَيْءٍ بَعْدُ  

When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ raised his head after bowing, he said: O Allah! our Lord, to Thee be the praise that would fill all the heavens and the earth, and all that it pleases Thee besides (them). O, thou art worthy of praise and glory, most worthy of what a servant says, and we all are Thy servants, no one can withhold what Thou givest or give what Thou withholdest, and riches cannot avail a wealthy person against Thee. (Using translation from Muslim 477)   

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ كَانَ إِذَا رَفَعَ رَأْسَهُ مِنَ الرُّكُوعِ قَالَ اللهُمَّ رَبَّنَا لَكَ الْحَمْدُ مِلْءَ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَمِلْءَ الْأَرْضِ وَمِلْءَ مَا بَيْنَهُمَا وَمِلْءَ مَا شِئْتَ مِنْ شَيْءٍ بَعْدُ أَهْلَ الثَّنَاءِ وَالْمَجْدِ لَا مَانِعَ لِمَا أَعْطَيْتَ وَلَا مُعْطِيَ لِمَا مَنَعْتَ وَلَا يَنْفَعُ ذَا الْجَدِّ مِنْكَ الْجَدُّ  

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ used to say: "When he says, 'Allah listens to the one who praises Him,' then say, 'Our Lord, and to You is the praise, filling the heavens and filling the earth and filling whatever You will of anything after praise and glory. The most deserving of what the servant said is what he said, and all of us are Your servants, with no one to prevent what You have given and no benefit to the mighty one from You, the mighty."  

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ كَانَ يَقُولُ إِذَا قَالَ سَمِعَ اللهُ لِمَنْ حَمِدَهُ اللهُمَّ رَبَّنَا وَلَكَ الْحَمْدُ مِلْءَ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَمِلْءَ الْأَرْضِ وَمِلْءَ مَا شِئْتَ مِنْ شَيْءٍ بَعْدُ أَهْلَ الثَّنَاءِ وَالْمَجْدِ أَحَقُّ مَا قَالَ الْعَبْدُ وَكُلُّنَا لَكَ عَبْدٌ لَا مَانِعَ لِمَا أَعْطَيْتَ وَلَا يَنْفَعُ ذَا الْجَدِّ مِنْكَ الْجَدُّ  

[Machine] He said: "One day, we were praying behind the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ raised his head from bowing and said, 'Allah listens to the one who praises Him,' a man behind the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'Our Lord, to You is all praise, abundant, pure, and blessed.' When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ finished, he said, 'Who spoke abruptly?' The man said, 'It was me, O Messenger of Allah.' The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'I saw thirty-three angels racing one another to write it down which of them would take it first.'"  

أَنَّهُ قَالَ كُنَّا يَوْمًا نُصَلِّي وَرَاءَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَلَمَّا رَفَعَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ رَأْسَهُ مِنَ الرُّكُوعَ وَقَالَ سَمِعَ اللهُ لِمَنْ حَمِدَهُ قَالَ رَجُلٌ وَرَاءَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ رَبَّنَا وَلَكَ الْحَمْدُ حَمْدًا كَثِيرًا طَيِّبًا مُبَارَكًا فِيهِ فَلَمَّا انْصَرَفَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ مَنْ تَكَلَّمَ آنِفًا؟ قَالَ الرَّجُلُ أَنَا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ لَقَدْ رَأَيْتُ بَضْعَةً وَثَلَاثِينَ مَلَكًا يَبْتَدِرُونَهَا أَيُّهُمْ يَكْتُبُهَا أَوَّلَ  

[Machine] He prayed along with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ the Maghrib prayer, and Rifaa'ah sneezed. He said, "Praise be to Allah, much praise, good and blessed praise. Blessed is He as our Lord loves and is pleased with." When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ left, he said, "Where is the one who spoke during the prayer?" Rifaa'ah said, "I wish I had missed out on some of my wealth and not witnessed that prayer with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ when he said, 'Where is the one who spoke during the prayer?' So I said, 'It was me, O Messenger of Allah.' He said, 'How did you say it?' I said, 'Praise be to Allah, much praise, good and blessed praise. Blessed is He as our Lord loves and is pleased with.' The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "By Him in whose hand is my soul, thirty-two angels hastened to it. Which one of them will ascend with it?" It has been narrated from 'Amir ibn Rabee'ah that a young man from the Ansaar sneezed while in prayer and said something similar, and the meaning of it was mentioned."  

أَنَّهُ صَلَّى مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ الْمَغْرِبَ فَعَطَسَ رِفَاعَةُ فَقَالَ الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ حَمْدًا كَثِيرًا طَيِّبًا مُبَارَكًا فِيهِ مُبَارَكًا عَلَيْهِ كَمَا يُحِبُّ رَبُّنَا وَيَرْضَى فَلَمَّا انْصَرَفَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ أَيْنَ الْمُتَكَلِّمُ فِي الصَّلَاةِ؟ قَالَ رِفَاعَةُ وَدِدْتُ أَنِّي عَدِمْتُ عِدَّةً مِنْ مَالِي وَلَمْ أَشْهَدْ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ تِلْكَ الصَّلَاةَ حِينَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ أَيْنَ الْمُتَكَلِّمُ فِي الصَّلَاةِ؟ فَقُلْتُ أَنَا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ قَالَ كَيْفَ قُلْتَ؟ قَالَ قُلْتُ الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ حَمْدًا كَثِيرًا طَيِّبًا مُبَارَكًا فِيهِ كَمَا يُحِبُّ رَبُّنَا وَيَرْضَى فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ وَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ لَقَدِ ابْتَدَرَهَا بَضْعَةٌ وَثَلَاثُونَ مَلَكًا أَيُّهُمْ يَصْعَدُ بِهَا وَرُوِيَ عَنْ عَامِرِ بْنِ رَبِيعَةَ قَالَ عَطَسَ شَابٌّ مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ وَهُوَ فِي الصَّلَاةِ فَقَالَ كَذَا فَذَكَرَ بَعْضَ مَعْنَاهُ  

[Machine] When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to say, "Samii'a-Allahu liman hamidah" (Allah hears whoever praises Him), he would say, "Allahumma Rabbana lakal-hamd" (O Allah, our Lord, to You be all praise). And when he would bow, he would say "Allahu Akbar" (Allah is the greatest), and when he raised his head from bowing, he would say "Allahu Akbar", and when he stood up from the two prostrations, he would say "Allahu Akbar" (Allah is the greatest).  

كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ إِذَا قَالَ سَمِعَ اللهُ لِمَنْ حَمِدَهُ قَالَ اللهُمَّ رَبَّنَا لَكَ الْحَمْدُ وَكَانَ إِذَا رَكَعَ يُكَبِّرُ وَإِذَا رَفَعَ رَأْسَهُ يُكَبِّرُ وَإِذَا قَامَ مِنَ السَّجْدَتَيْنِ قَالَ اللهُ أَكْبَرُ  

[Machine] I prayed with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ in the month of Ramadan, and when he lifted his head from bowing, he said, "Allah has heard the one who praised Him. O our Lord, to You belongs all the praise."  

صَلَّيْتُ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فِي شَهْرِ رَمَضَانَ فَلَمَّا رَفَعَ رَأْسَهُ مِنَ الرُّكُوعِ قَالَ سَمِعَ اللهُ لِمَنْ حَمِدَهُ اللهُمَّ رَبَّنَا وَلَكَ الْحَمْدُ  

[Machine] Oh Allah, our Lord, all praise is due to You. Oh Allah, with Your support and strength, I stand and sit.  

اللهُمَّ رَبَّنَا وَلَكَ الْحَمْدُ اللهُمَّ بِحَوْلِكَ وَقُوَّتِكَ أَقُومُ وَأَقْعُدُ  

[Machine] God hears the one who praises Him. O our Lord, to You belongs all praise. God is the greatest. By doing so, He raises His voice and we follow him together.  

سَمِعَ اللهُ لِمَنْ حَمِدَهُ اللهُمَّ رَبَّنَا لَكَ الْحَمْدُ اللهُ أَكْبَرُ يَرْفَعُ بِذَلِكَ صَوْتَهُ وَنُتَابِعُهُ مَعًا  

[Machine] Ata said, "Being with the Imam and joining them is dearer to me." It has been narrated in it two weak traditions which I have mentioned in disagreement.  

وَقَالَ عَطَاءٌ يَجْمَعُهُمَا مَعَ الْإِمَامِ أَحَبُّ إِلَيَّ وَرُوِيَ فِيهِ حَدِيثَانِ ضَعِيفَانِ قَدْ خَرَّجْتُهُمَا فِي الْخِلَافِ  

[Machine] "That the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: 'When the Imam says, 'Allah listens to the one who praises Him,' then say, 'Our Lord, praise be to You.' For indeed, whoever's statement corresponds with the statement of the angels, his previous sins will be forgiven.'"  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ إِذَا قَالَ الْإِمَامُ سَمِعَ اللهُ لِمَنْ حَمِدَهُ فَقُولُوا اللهُمَّ رَبَّنَا وَلَكَ الْحَمْدُ فَإِنَّهُ مَنْ وَافَقَ قَوْلُهُ قَوْلَ الْمَلَائِكَةِ غُفِرَ لَهُ مَا تَقَدَّمَ مِنْ ذَنْبِهِ  

[Machine] Abu Musa Al-Ash'ari prayed with the people and mentioned the hadith in which he said, "The Messenger of Allah taught us our prayer and explained our sunnah. When you pray, straighten your rows. When he says 'Allahu Akbar,' say 'Allahu Akbar.' When he says 'not of those who have incurred wrath' and 'nor of those who have gone astray,' say 'Ameen,' for Allah will answer you. When he says 'Allahu Akbar' and bows, say 'Allahu Akbar' and bow, for the imam says the takbeer before you and raises his head before you." Then the Prophet said, "That is as that is. When he says 'Allah hears those who praise Him,' say 'Our Lord, to You is all praise,' for Allah will answer you."  

أَنَّ أَبَا مُوسَى الْأَشْعَرِيَّ ؓ صَلَّى بِالنَّاسِ فَذَكَرَ الْحَدِيثَ وَفِيهِ فَقَالَ أَبُو مُوسَى إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ خَطَبَنَا فَعَلَّمَنَا صَلَاتَنَا وَبَيَّنَ لَنَا سُنَّتَنَا فَقَالَ إِذَا صَلَّيْتُمْ فَأَقِيمُوا صُفُوفَكُمْ فَإِذَا كَبَّرَ فَكَبِّرُوا وَإِذَا قَالَ غَيْرِ الْمَغْضُوبِ عَلَيْهِمْ وَلَا الضَّالِّينَ فَقُولُوا آمِينَ يُجِبْكُمُ اللهُ وَإِذَا كَبَّرَ فَرَكَعَ فَكَبِّرُوا وَارْكَعُوا فَإِنَّ الْإِمَامَ يُكَبِّرُ قَبْلَكُمْ وَيَرْفَعُ قَبْلَكُمْ فَقَالَ نَبِيُّ اللهِ ﷺ فَتِلْكَ بِتِلْكَ وَإِذَا قَالَ سَمِعَ اللهُ لِمَنْ حَمِدَهُ فَقُولُوا رَبَّنَا لَكَ الْحَمْدُ يُجِبْكُمُ اللهُ  

[Machine] That the Messenger of Allah ﷺ rode a horse, and it stumbled and injured its right side. He then performed a prayer for us, while sitting, and we prayed with him while sitting. When he finished, he said: "Verily, the imam has been appointed to be followed, so do not differ from him. When he prays standing, then pray standing, and when he says 'Allahu Akbar', then say 'Allahu Akbar', and when he says 'Sami Allahu liman hamidah', then say 'Rabbana wa lakal hamd', and when he prostrates, then prostrate, and when he prays sitting, then pray sitting, all together." This is an authentic narration in Sahihain from the hadith of Malik and others, narrated by Muslim from Hirmalah from Ibn Wahb, and likewise.  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ رَكِبَ فَرَسًا فَصُرِعَ عَنْهُ فَجُحِشَ شِقُّهُ الْأَيْمَنُ فَصَلَّى لَنَا صَلَاةً مِنَ الصَّلَوَاتِ وَهُوَ جَالِسٌ فَصَلَّيْنَا مَعَهُ جُلُوسًا فَلَمَّا انْصَرَفَ قَالَ إِنَّمَا جُعِلَ الْإِمَامُ لِيُؤْتَمَّ بِهِ فَلَا تَخْتَلِفُوا عَلَيْهِ فَإِذَا صَلَّى قَائِمًا فَصَلُّوا قِيَامًا وَإِذَا كَبَّرَ فَكَبِّرُوا وَإِذَا قَالَ سَمِعَ اللهُ لِمَنْ حَمِدَهُ فَقُولُوا رَبَّنَا وَلَكَ الْحَمْدُ وَإِذَا سَجَدَ فَاسْجُدُوا وَإِذَا صَلَّى قَاعِدًا فَصَلُّوا قُعُودًا أَجْمَعِينَ مَخَرَّجٌ فِي الصَّحِيحَيْنِ مِنْ حَدِيثِ مَالِكٍ وَغَيْرِهِ وَرَوَاهُ مُسْلِمٌ عَنْ حَرْمَلَةَ عَنِ ابْنِ وَهْبٍ وَكَذَلِكَ  

[Machine] Allah hears the one who praises Him, so let the one following him say, "Our Lord, to You is the praise."  

سَمِعَ اللهُ لِمَنْ حَمِدَهُ فَلْيَقُلْ مَنْ خَلْفَهُ رَبَّنَا وَلَكَ الْحَمْدُ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ entered the mosque and mentioned the hadith about the story of the person who entered the mosque and in it (the hadith) is: "then raise until you are standing upright and your feet are evenly placed, for it is an authentic narration in the two Sahihs."  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ دَخَلَ الْمَسْجِدَ فَذَكَرَ الْحَدِيثَ فِي قِصَّةِ الدَّاخِلِ وَفِيهِ ثُمَّ ارْفَعْ حَتَّى تَعْتَدِلَ قَائِمًا مُخَرَّجٌ فِي الصَّحِيحَيْنِ  

[Machine] He said one day, and that was not during prayer time, "Shall I show you how the prayer of the Messenger of Allah, may ﷺ , used to be?" Then he stood and performed the standing position perfectly, then he bowed and performed the bowing position perfectly, then he raised his head and stood straight for a moment. Abu Qilaba said, "Our Shaykh, Abu Burayd, prayed with us and he used to sit upright when lifting his head from the last prostration of the first unit, then he stood up."  

قَالَ يَوْمًا وَذَلِكَ فِي غَيْرِ وَقْتِ الصَّلَاةِ أَلَا أُرِيَكُمْ كَيْفَ كَانَ صَلَاةُ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَقَامَ فَأَمْكَنَ الْقِيَامَ ثُمَّ رَكَعَ فَأَمْكَنَ الرُّكُوعَ ثُمَّ رَفَعَ رَأْسَهُ فَانْتَصَبَ قَائِمًا هُنَيْئَةً قَالَ أَبُو قِلَابَةَ وَصَلَّى بِنَا صَلَاةَ شَيْخِنَا هَذَا أَبِي بُرَيْدٍ وَكَانَ أَبُو بُرَيْدٍ إِذَا رَفَعَ رَأْسَهُ مِنَ السَّجْدَةِ الْأَخِيرَةِ مِنَ الرَّكْعَةِ الْأُولَى اسْتَوَى قَاعِدًا ثُمَّ نَهَضَ  

[Machine] He was sitting with some companions of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and mentioned the hadith narrated by Abu Humaid Al-Sa'idi about the description of the Prophet's prayer. He said, "When he raised his head, he would stay in the upright position until every vertebra returned to its place."  

أَنَّهُ كَانَ جَالِسًا مَعَ نَفَرٍ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَذَكَرَ الْحَدِيثَ عَنْ أَبِي حُمَيْدٍ السَّاعِدِيِّ فِي صِفَةِ صَلَاةِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ فَإِذَا رَفَعَ رَأْسَهُ اسْتَوَى حَتَّى يَعُودَ كُلُّ فَقَارٍ مَكَانَهُ  

Anas used to demonstrate to us the prayer of the Prophet ﷺ and while demonstrating, he used to raise his head from bowing and stand so long that we would say that he had forgotten (the prostration). (Using translation from Bukhārī 800)   

كَانَ أَنَسٌ ؓ يَنْعَتُ لَنَا صَلَاةَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ كَانَ يُصَلِّي فَإِذَا رَفَعَ رَأْسَهُ مِنَ الرُّكُوعِ قَامَ حَتَّى نَقُولَ قَدْ نَسِيَ  

[Machine] "That I pray with you as I saw the Messenger of Allah ﷺ praying with us," Hammād said, Thābit said, "And Anas used to do something with us that I don't see you doing. When he raised his head from the bowing position, he stood up straight until the person saying the prayer said that he had forgotten. And when he raised his head from prostration, he remained in a sitting position until the person saying the prayer said that he had forgotten."  

أَنْ أُصَلِّيَ بِكُمْ كَمَا رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يُصَلِّي بِنَا قَالَ حَمَّادٌ قَالَ ثَابِتٌ وَكَانَ أَنَسٌ يَصْنَعُ بِنَا شَيْئًا لَا أَرَاكُمْ تَصْنَعُونَهُ كَانَ إِذَا رَفَعَ رَأْسَهُ مِنَ الرُّكُوعِ انْتَصَبَ قَائِمًا حَتَّى يَقُولَ الْقَائِلُ قَدْ نَسِيَ وَإِذَا رَفَعَ رَأْسَهُ مِنَ السَّجْدَةِ اسْتَوَى جَالِسًا حَتَّى يَقُولَ الْقَائِلُ قَدْ نَسِيَ  

There dominated in Kufa a man whose name was men- tioned as Zaman b. al-Ash'ath, who ordered Abu 'Ubaidah b. 'Abdullah to lead people in prayer and he accordingly used to lead them. Whenever he raised his head after bowing, he stood up equal to the time that I can recite (this supplication): O Allah! our Lord! unto Thee be the praise which would fill the heavens and the earth, and that which will please Thee besides them I Worthy art Thou of all praise and glory. None can prevent that which Thou bestowest, and none can bestow that whichthou preventest. And the greatness of the great will not avail him against Thee. Hakam (the narrator) said: I made a mention of that to Abd al-Rahman ibn Abi Laila who reported: I heard al-Bara' b. 'Azib say that the prayer of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and his bowing, and when he lifted his head from bowing, and his prostration, and between the two prostrations (all these acts) were nearly proportionate. I made a mention of that to 'Ar b. Murrah and he said: I saw Ibn Abi Laili (saying the prayer), but his prayer was not like this. (Using translation from Muslim 471b)   

أَنْ يُصَلِّيَ بِالنَّاسِ فَكَانَ يُصَلِّي فَإِذَا رَفَعَ رَأْسَهُ مِنَ الرُّكُوعِ قَامَ قَدْرَ مَا أَقُولُ اللهُمَّ رَبَّنَا لَكَ الْحَمْدُ مِلْءَ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَمِلْءَ الْأَرْضِ وَمِلْءَ مَا شِئْتَ مِنْ شَيْءٍ بَعْدُ أَهْلَ الثَّنَاءِ وَالْمَجْدِ لَا مَانِعَ لِمَا أَعْطَيْتَ وَلَا مُعْطِيَ لِمَا مَنَعْتَ وَلَا يَنْفَعُ ذَا الْجَدِّ مِنْكَ الْجَدُّ قَالَ الْحَكَمُ فَذَكَرْتُ ذَلِكَ لِعَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ أَبِي لَيْلَى فَقَالَ سَمِعْتُ الْبَرَاءَ يَقُولُ كَانَتْ صَلَاةُ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ وَرُكُوعُهُ وَإِذَا رَفَعَ رَأْسَهُ مِنَ الرُّكُوعِ وَسُجُودُهُ وَمَا بَيْنَ السَّجْدَتَيْنِ قَرِيبًا مِنَ السَّوَاءِ قَالَ شُعْبَةُ فَذَكَرْتُهُ لِعَمْرِو بْنِ مُرَّةَ فَقَالَ قَدْ رَأَيْتُ ابْنَ أَبِي لَيْلَى فَلَمْ تَكُنْ صَلَاتُهُ كَذَا قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ هَذَا لَفْظُ حَدِيثِ أَبِي عَمْرٍو وَرَوَاهُ مُسْلِمٌ فِي الصَّحِيحِ عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللهِ بْنِ مُعَاذٍ  

[Machine] He heard Abu Hurairah saying: "The Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to mention the Hadith in which he said, then he would make Takbir (saying Allahu Akbar) while going down into prostration."  

أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ ؓ يَقُولُ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فَذَكَرَ الْحَدِيثَ قَالَ فِيهِ ثُمَّ يُكَبِّرُ حِينَ يَهْوِي سَاجِدًا  

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ used to place his knees before his hands when he prostrated, and he used to raise his hands before his knees when he stood up.  

كَانَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ إِذَا سَجَدَ تَقَعُ رُكْبَتَاهُ قَبْلَ يَدَيْهِ وَإِذَا رَفَعَ رَفَعَ يَدَيْهِ قَبْلَ رُكْبَتَيْهِ  

[Machine] About the Prophet ﷺ , when he entered prayer, he would raise his hands and say the takbeer, then he would wrap himself in his garment. He would place his right hand over his left hand. When he intended to bow, he would say: "Like this with his garment" and he would bring out his hands, then he would raise them and say the takbeer. When he intended to prostrate, his knees would touch the ground before his hands, and when he prostrated, he would place his forehead between his hands and his arms would be away from his sides. Hammam reported it from Shu'ayb, from 'Asim, from his father, from the Prophet ﷺ who said: "Similar to this (was narrated by) Hammam". And in the narration of one of them, Hammam said: "And the most knowledgeable person regarding this hadith is that it is from the hadith of Muhammad ibn Juhadah. So when he stood up, he would stand on his knees and lean on his thighs, and likewise...  

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ كَانَ إِذَا دَخَلَ فِي الصَّلَاةِ رَفَعَ يَدَيْهِ وَكَبَّرَ ثُمَّ الْتَحَفَ بِثَوْبِهِ وَوَضَعَ الْيُمْنَى عَلَى الْيُسْرَى فَإِذَا أَرَادَ أَنْ يَرْكَعَ قَالَ هَكَذَا بِثَوْبِهِ وَأَخْرَجَ يَدَيْهِ ثُمَّ رَفَعَهُمَا وَكَبَّرَ فَلَمَّا أَرَادَ أَنْ يَسْجُدَ وَقَعَتْ رُكْبَتَاهُ عَلَى الْأَرْضِ قَبْلَ أَنْ تَقَعَا كَفَّاهُ فَلَمَّا سَجَدَ وَضَعَ جَبْهَتَهُ بَيْنَ كَفَّيْهِ وَجَافَى عَنْ إِبِطَيْهِ وَقَالَ هَمَّامٌ وَثنا شَقِيقٌ ثنا عَاصِمٌ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ مِثْلَ هَذَا قَالَ وَفِي حَدِيثِ أَحَدِهِمَا قَالَ هَمَّامٌ وَأَكْبَرُ عِلْمِي أَنَّهُ فِي حَدِيثِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ جُحَادَةَ فَإِذَا نَهَضَ نَهَضَ عَلَى رُكْبَتَيْهِ وَاعْتَمَدَ عَلَى فَخِذَيْهِ وَكَذَلِكَ  

[Machine] It is narrated that when the Prophet ﷺ prostrated, his knees would touch the ground before his hands. A’fafan said: “This hadith is strange, and it was narrated by Yazid ibn Harun from Shurayk.” The scholar said: “This is a hadith that is attributed solely to Shurayk al-Qadi, and it was only transmitted through Hamam in this manner. This is how it was mentioned by Imam al-Bukhari and others from the early scholars, may Allah have mercy on them.”  

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ كَانَ إِذَا سَجَدَ وَقَعَتْ رُكْبَتَاهُ إِلَى الْأَرْضِ قَبْلَ أَنْ تَقَعَ كَفَّاهُ قَالَ عَفَّانُ وَهَذَا الْحَدِيثُ غَرِيبٌ وَرَوَاهُ يَزِيدُ بْنُ هَارُونَ عَنْ شَرِيكٍ قَالَ الشَّيْخُ هَذَا حَدِيثٌ يُعَدُّ فِي أَفْرَادِ شَرِيكٍ الْقَاضِي وَإِنَّمَا تَابَعَهُ هَمَّامٌ مِنْ هَذَا الْوَجْهِ مُرْسَلًا هَكَذَا ذَكَرَهُ الْبُخَارِيُّ وَغَيْرُهُ مِنَ الْحُفَّاظِ الْمُتَقَدِّمِينَ رَحِمَهُمُ اللهُ تَعَالَى  

[Machine] I prayed behind the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, then I prostrated, and the first thing that touched the ground were his knees.  

صَلَّيْتُ خَلْفَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ ثُمَّ سَجَدَ وَكَانَ أَوَّلَ مَا وَصَلَ إِلَى الْأَرْضِ رُكْبَتَاهُ  

[Machine] I saw the Messenger of Allah ﷺ perform the takbir by lifting his thumbs closely to his ears, then he bowed until every joint settled in its place. He raised his head until every joint settled in its place, then he went down in the takbir until his hands were level with his knees. This was narrated to us by Umar ibn Al-Khattab and Abdullah ibn Mas'ud regarding the placement of the knees before the hands. And Allah knows best.  

رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ كَبَّرَ فَحَاذَى بِإِبْهَامَيْهِ أُذُنَيْهِ ثُمَّ رَكَعَ حَتَّى اسْتَقَرَّ كُلُّ مَفْصِلٍ مِنْهُ فِي مَوْضِعِهِ وَرَفَعَ رَأْسَهُ حَتَّى اسْتَقَرَّ كُلُّ مَفْصِلٍ مِنْهُ فِي مَوْضِعِهِ ثُمَّ انْحَطَّ بِالتَّكْبِيرِ حَتَّى سَبَقَتْ رُكْبَتَاهُ يَدَيْهِ تَفَرَّدَ بِهِ الْعَلَاءُ بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ وَاللهُ تَعَالَى أَعْلَمُ وَرُوِّينَا عَنْ عُمَرَ بْنِ الْخَطَّابِ وَعَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ فِي وَضْعِ الرُّكْبَتَيْنِ قَبْلَ الْيَدَيْنِ مِنْ فِعْلِهِمَا  

[Machine] The messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "When one of you prostrates, they should not plant their knees on the ground like a camel, but rather they should place their hands and then their knees on the ground." In another narration by Abu Dawud, Muhammad bin Abdullah bin Al-Hasan narrated that the messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "They should place their hands before their knees." And this has a similar meaning.  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ إِذَا سَجَدَ أَحَدُكُمْ فَلَا يَبْرُكُ كَمَا يَبْرُكُ الْبَعِيرُ وَلْيَضَعْ يَدَيْهِ ثُمَّ رُكْبَتَيْهِ وَفِي رِوَايَةِ أَبِي دَاوُدَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ الْحَسَنِ وَقَالَ فِي الْحَدِيثِ وَلْيَضَعْ يَدَيْهِ قَبْلَ رُكْبَتَيْهِ وَبِمَعْنَاهُ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "When one of you prostrates, he should not bless like a camel. Rather, he should place his hands on his knees, as he said, on his knees. If he is protected, it is evidence that he places his hands on his knees when inclined to prostrate." (Source: Hadith)  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ إِذَا سَجَدَ أَحَدُكُمْ فَلَا يَبْرُكْ كَمَا يَبْرُكُ الْجَمَلُ وَلْيَضَعْ يَدَيْهِ عَلَى رُكْبَتَيْهِ كَذَا قَالَ عَلَى رُكْبَتَيْهِ فَإِنْ كَانَ مَحْفُوظًا كَانَ دَلِيلًا عَلَى أَنَّهُ يَضَعُ يَدَيْهِ عَلَى رُكْبَتَيْهِ عِنْدَ الْإِهْوَاءِ إِلَى السُّجُودِ (ح)  

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ said, "When one of you prostrates, let him begin with his knees. It was said, (should he begin with) his hands? He replied, no (he should not). And he should not resemble the Camel's hump (meaning he should not raise his hands high like the hump of a camel). And likewise."  

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ إِذَا سَجَدَ أَحَدُكُمْ فَلْيَبْدَأْ بِرُكْبَتَيْهِ قِيلَ يَدَيْهِ وَلَا يَبْرُكْ بُرُوكَ الْجَمَلِ وَكَذَلِكَ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "One of you may perform his prayer and be blessed just as a camel is blessed." It has been narrated that this was the case, but then it was abrogated and the matter became as what we have heard except that its chain of narrators is weak.  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَعْمَدُ أَحَدُكُمْ فِي صَلَاتِهِ فَيَبْرُكُ كَمَا يَبْرُكُ الْجَمَلُ وَقَدْ رُوِيَ أَنَّ ذَلِكَ كَانَ ثُمَّ نُسِخَ وَصَارَ الْأَمْرُ إِلَى مَا رُوِّينَا عَنْ وَائِلِ بْنِ حُجْرٍ إِلَّا أَنَّ إِسْنَادَهُ ضَعِيفٌ  

[Machine] "We used to place our hands before our knees, then we were commanded to place our knees before our hands, so he said. This is also reported from Mus'ab from his father, regarding the abrogation and application. Allah knows best. And according to Abdul Aziz al-Darawardi, there is another chain of narration, but I see it only as a delusion."  

كُنَّا نَضَعُ الْيَدَيْنِ قَبْلَ الرُّكْبَتَيْنِ فَأُمِرْنَا بِالرُّكْبَتَيْنِ قَبْلَ الْيَدَيْنِ كَذَا قَالَ وَالْمَشْهُورُ عَنْ مُصْعَبٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ حَدِيثُ نَسْخِ التَّطْبِيقِ وَاللهُ أَعْلَمُ وَلِعَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ الدَّرَاوَرْدِيِّ فِيهِ إِسْنَادٌ آخَرُ وَلَا أُرَاهُ إِلَّا وَهْمًا
