٩۔ كِتَابُ الصَّلَاةِ ص ٣
ذِكْرُ الْخَبَرِ الْمُدْحِضِ تَأْوِيلَ مَنْ حَرَّفَ هَذَا الْخَبَرَ عَنْ جِهَتِهِ وَزَعَمَ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ إِنَّمَا أَمَرَ هَذَا الْمُصَلِّيَ بِإِعَادَةِ الصَّلَاةِ لِشَيْءٍ عَلِمَهُ مِنْهُ مَا لَا نَعْلَمُهُ نَحْنُ
[Machine] We came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and prayed behind the Messenger of Allah ﷺ . When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ finished his prayer, a man, who was alone, remained standing. The Prophet ﷺ stood by him until the man completed his prayer. Then, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to him, "Face your prayer, for there is no prayer for an individual behind the row."
قَدِمْنَا عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَصَلَّيْنَا خَلْفَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَلَمَّا قَضَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ صَلَاتَهُ إِذَا رَجُلٌ فَرْدٌ فَوَقَفَ عَلَيْهِ نَبِيُّ اللَّهِ ﷺ حَتَّى قَضَى الرَّجُلُ صَلَاتَهُ ثُمَّ قَالَ لَهُ نَبِيُّ اللَّهِ ﷺ «اسْتَقْبِلْ صَلَاتَكَ؛ فَإِنَّهُ لَا صَلَاةَ لِفَرْدٍ خَلْفَ الصَّفِّ»
ذِكْرُ التَّأْكِيدِ فِي الْأَمْرِ الَّذِي وَصَفْنَاهُ
[Machine] Narrated by my father Ali ibn Shayban, who was one of the delegation that went to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ from the tribe of Banu Hanifa. He said, "I prayed behind the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , and when the Messenger of Allah ﷺ finished his prayer, he looked at a man standing alone behind the row and said, 'Did you pray like this?' The man replied, 'Yes.' The Prophet ﷺ said, 'Then redo your prayer, for there is no prayer for an individual behind the row alone.'"
حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي عَلِيُّ بْنُ شَيْبَانَ وَكَانَ أَحَدَ الْوَفْدِ الَّذِينَ وَفَدُوا إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ مِنْ بَنِي حَنِيفَةَ قَالَ صَلَّيْتَ خَلْفَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَلَمَّا قَضَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ صَلَاتَهُ نَظَرَ إِلَى رَجُلٍ خَلْفَ الصَّفِّ وَحْدَهُ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «هَكَذَا صَلَّيْتَ؟ » قَالَ نَعَمْ قَالَ «فَأَعِدْ صَلَاتَكَ فَإِنَّهُ لَا صَلَاةَ لِفَرْدٍ خَلْفَ الصَّفِّ وَحْدَهُ»
ذِكْرُ وَصْفِ مَقَامِ الْمَرْأَةِ خَلْفَ الصَّفِّ
"I prayed beside the Prophet ﷺ and Ayesha was behind us praying with us, and I was beside the Prophet ﷺ praying with him." (Using translation from Nasāʾī 804)
ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ «صَلَّيْتُ إِلَى جَنْبِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ وَعَائِشَةُ خَلْفَنَا تُصَلِّي مَعَنَا وَأَنَا إِلَى جَنْبِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ أُصَلِّي مَعَهُ»
ذِكْرُ الْبَيَانِ بِأَنَّ الْمَرْأَةَ إِذَا كَانَتْ وَحْدَهَا لَهَا أَنْ تَنْفَرِدَ بِالصَّلَاةِ خَلْفَ صُفُوفِ الرِّجَالِ تَقْتَدِي بِإِمَامِهَا لَا تَقَدُّمَ لَهَا مِنْ ذَلِكَ الْمَوْضِعِ
Get up, I shall lead you in prayer. Anas said: I got up and took a mat which had become black on account of long use. I then washed it with water. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ stood upon it. I and the orphan (Ibn Abi Dumairah, the freed slave of the prophet) stood in a row behind him. The old women stood behind us. He then led us in two raka'at of prayer and left. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 612)
أَنَّ جَدَّتَهُ مُلَيْكَةَ دَعَتْ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ لِطَعَامٍ صَنَعَتْهُ فَأَكَلَ مِنْهُ ثُمَّ قَالَ «قُومُوا فَلِأُصَلِّيَ لَكُمْ» قَالَ أَنَسٌ فَقُمْتُ إِلَى حَصِيرٍ لِي قَدِ اسْوَدَّ مِنْ طُولِ مَا لُبِسَ فَنَضَحْتُهُ بِمَاءٍ فَقَامَ عَلَيْهِ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَصَفَفْتُ أَنَا وَالْيَتِيمُ وَرَاءَهُ وَالْعَجُوزُ مِنْ وَرَائِنَا «فَصَلَّى لَنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ رَكْعَتَيْنِ ثُمَّ انْصَرَفَ»
ذِكْرُ خَبَرٍ أَوْهَمَ بَعْضَ أَئِمَّتِنَا أَنَّ الْعَجُوزَ فِي هَذِهِ الصَّلَاةِ لَمْ تَكُنْ مُنْفَرِدَةً وَكَانَ مَعَهَا امْرَأَةٌ أُخْرَى
It was narrated from Anas that he and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and his mother, and his maternal aunt (were together). The Messenger of Allah ﷺ prayed, and he told Anas to stand on his right and his mother and maternal aunt behind them. (Using translation from Nasāʾī 803)
«أَنَّهُ كَانَ هُوَ وَرَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَأُمُّهُ وَخَالَتُهُ فَصَلَّى بِهِمْ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَجَعَلَ أَنَسًا عَنْ يَمِينِهِ وَأُمَّهُ وَخَالَتَهُ خَلْفَهُمَا»
9.16.98 Subsection
٩۔١٦۔٩٨ ذِكْرُ الْبَيَانِ بِأَنَّ هَذِهِ الصَّلَاةَ الَّتِي كَانَتْ أُمُّ أَنَسٍ وَخَالَتُهُ اصْطَفَّتَا خَلْفَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ صَلَاةٌ أُخْرَى غَيْرُ تِلْكَ الصَّلَاةِ الَّتِي كَانَتْ أُمُّ سُلَيْمٍ وَحْدَهَا تُصَلِّي
[Machine] "The Messenger of Allah ﷺ prayed with us on a mat, and he made me stand on his right. Umm Sulaim and Umm Haram stood behind us."
«صَلَّى بِنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ عَلَى بِسَاطٍ فَأَقَامَنِي عَنْ يَمِينِهِ وَقَامَتْ أُمُّ سُلَيْمٍ وَأُمُّ حَرَامٍ خَلْفَنَا»
[Machine] On the authority of the Prophet ﷺ, he said, "When women seek permission from you to go to the mosques, grant them permission."
عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ «إِذَا اسْتَأْذَنَكُمُ النِّسَاءُ إِلَى الْمَسَاجِدِ فَأْذَنُوا لَهُنَّ»
9.16 [Machine] The obligation of Imam's observance
٩۔١٦ بَابُ فَرْضِ مُتَابَعَةِ الْإِمَامِ
ذِكْرُ الزَّجْرِ عَنْ مَنْعِ النِّسَاءِ عَنْ إِتْيَانِ الْمَسَاجِدِ لِلصَّلَاةِ
'The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: Do not prevent the maid-servants of Allah from going to the mosque. (Using translation from Muslim 442c)
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ «لَا تَمْنَعُوا إِمَاءَ اللَّهِ مَسَاجِدَ اللَّهِ»
ذِكْرُ أَحَدِ الشَّرْطَيْنِ الَّذِي أُبِيحَ هَذَا الْفِعْلُ بِهِمَا
[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Allow women to go to the mosques at night." Some of his sons objected, saying, "Do not allow them, as they may cause disturbance." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "May Allah deal with you accordingly. I say to let them go and you say not to."
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «ائْذَنُوا لِلنِّسَاءِ إِلَى الْمَسَاجِدِ بِاللَّيْلِ» فَقَالَ بَعْضُ بَنِيهِ لَا تَأْذَنْ لَهُنَّ فَيَتَّخِذْنَهُ دَغَلًا قَالَ «فَعَلَ اللَّهُ بِكَ وَفَعَلَ أَقُولُ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَتَقُولُ لَا تَأْذَنْ»
ذِكْرُ الشَّرْطِ الثَّانِي الَّذِي أُبِيحَ هَذَا الْفِعْلُ بِهِ
Do not prevent the female servants of Allah from visiting the mosques of Allah, but they may go out (to the mosque) having no perfumed themselves. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 565)
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ «لَا تَمْنَعُوا إِمَاءَ اللَّهِ مَسَاجِدَ اللَّهِ وَلْيَخْرُجْنَ تَفِلَاتٍ»
ذِكْرُ الشَّرْطِ الثَّالِثِ الَّذِي أُبِيحَ مَجِيءُ النِّسَاءِ إِلَى الْمَسَاجِدِ بِاللَّيْلِ بِهِ
The Messenger of Allah [SAW] said to her: "If you go out to 'Isha' then do not touch any perfume." (Using translation from Nasāʾī 5261)
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ لَهَا «إِذَا خَرَجْتِ إِلَى الْعِشَاءِ فَلَا تَمَسِّينَ طِيبًا»
ذِكْرُ الزَّجْرِ عَنْ مَنْعِ الْمَرْءِ امْرَأَتَهُ عَنْ شُهُودِ الْعِشَاءِ الْآخِرَةِ فِي الْمَسَاجِدِ
When women ask permission for going to the mosque, do not prevent them. (Using translation from Muslim 442a)
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «إِذَا اسْتَأْذَنَتْ أَحَدَكُمُ امْرَأَتُهُ إِلَى الْمَسْجِدِ فَلَا يَمْنَعْهَا» قَالَ بِلَالُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ وَاللَّهِ لَنَمْنَعُهُنَّ قَالَ فَسَبَّهُ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عُمَرَ أَسْوَأَ مَا سَمِعْتُهُ سَبَّهُ قَطُّ وَقَالَ سَمِعْتَنِي قُلْتُ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «إِذَا اسْتَأْذَنَتْ أَحَدَكُمُ امْرَأَتُهُ إِلَى الْمَسْجِدِ فَلَا يَمْنَعْهَا» قُلْتَ وَاللَّهِ لَنَمْنَعُهُنَّ؟!
ذِكْرُ وَصْفِ خُرُوجِ الْمَرْأَةِ الَّتِي أُبِيحَ لَهَا شُهُودُ الْعِشَاءِ فِي الْجَمَاعَةِ
Do not prevent the female servants of Allah from visiting the mosques of Allah, but they may go out (to the mosque) having no perfumed themselves. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 565)
أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ قَالَ «لَا تَمْنَعُوا إِمَاءَ اللَّهِ مَسَاجِدَ اللَّهِ وَلْيَخْرُجْنَ تَفِلَاتٍ»
ذِكْرُ الزَّجْرِ عَنْ مَسِّ الْمَرْأَةِ الطِّيبَ إِذَا أَرَادَتْ شُهُودَ الْعِشَاءِ الْآخِرَةِ فِي الْجَمَاعَةِ
[Machine] She heard the Prophet ﷺ saying, "If one of you attends the evening prayer, then do not touch any fragrance."
أَنَّهَا سَمِعَتِ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ يَقُولُ «إِذَا شَهِدَتْ إِحْدَاكُنَّ الْعِشَاءَ فَلَا تَمَسَّ طِيبًا»
ذِكْرُ الزَّجْرِ لِمَنْ شَهِدَتِ الْعِشَاءَ الْآخِرَةَ فِي الْجَمَاعَةِ أَنْ تَرْفَعَ رَأْسَهَا قَبْلَ أَخْذِ الرِّجَالِ مَقَاعِدَهُمْ إِذَا كَانَ فِي ثِيَابِهِمْ قِلَّةٌ
[Machine] "During the time of the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ , women were instructed in prayer not to raise their heads until men had taken their seats from the ground due to the tightness of their clothing."
«كُنَّ النِّسَاءُ يُؤْمَرْنَ فِي عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فِي الصَّلَاةِ أَنْ لَا يَرْفَعْنَ رُءُوسَهُنَّ حَتَّى يَأْخُذَ الرِّجَالُ مَقَاعِدَهُمْ مِنَ الْأَرْضِ مِنْ ضِيقِ الثِّيَابِ»
ذِكْرُ الْبَيَانِ بِأَنَّ صَلَاةَ الْمَرْأَةِ كُلَّمَا كَانَتْ أَسْتَرَ كَانَ أَعْظَمَ لِأَجْرِهَا
[Machine] About his aunt, Umm Humaid, the wife of Abu Humaid Al-Sa'idi, she came to the Prophet ﷺ and said, "O Messenger of Allah, I love to pray with you." He said, "I know that you love to pray with me, but your prayer in your house is better than your prayer in your room, and your prayer in your room is better than your prayer in your house, and your prayer in your house is better than your prayer in the mosque of your people, and your prayer in the mosque of your people is better than your prayer in my mosque." Then she commanded that a mosque be built for her in the farthest part of her house, the darkest part, and she used to pray there until she met Allah, the Most High.
عَنْ عَمَّتِهِ أُمِّ حُمَيْدٍ امْرَأَةِ أَبِي حُمَيْدٍ السَّاعِدِيِّ أَنَّهَا جَاءَتِ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَقَالَتْ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنِّي أُحِبُّ الصَّلَاةَ مَعَكَ قَالَ «قَدْ عَلِمْتُ أَنَّكِ تُحِبِّينَ الصَّلَاةَ مَعِي وَصَلَاتُكِ فِي بَيْتِكَ خَيْرٌ مِنْ صَلَاتِكِ فِي حُجْرَتِكِ وَصَلَاتُكِ فِي حُجْرَتِكِ خَيْرٌ مِنْ صَلَاتِكِ فِي دَارِكِ وَصَلَاتُكِ فِي دَارِكِ خَيْرٌ مِنْ صَلَاتِكِ فِي مَسْجِدِ قَوْمِكِ وَصَلَاتُكِ فِي مَسْجِدِ قَوْمِكِ خَيْرٌ مِنْ صَلَاتِكِ فِي مَسْجِدِي» قَالَ فَأَمَرَتْ فَبُنِيَ لَهَا مَسْجِدٌ فِي أَقْصَى شَيْءٍ مِنْ بَيْتِهَا وَأَظْلَمِهِ وَكَانَتْ تُصَلِّي فِيهِ حَتَّى لَقِيَتِ اللَّهَ جَلَّ وَعَلَا
ذِكْرُ الزَّجْرِ عَنِ الصَّلَاةِ بَيْنَ السَّوَارِي جَمَاعَةً
I offered the Friday prayer along with Anas ibn Malik. We were pushed to the pillars (due to the crowd of people). We, therefore, stopped forward and backward. Anas then said: We used to avoid it (setting a row between the pillars) during the time of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 673)
«كُنَّا نَتَّقِي هَذَا عَلَى عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ»
ذِكْرُ خَبَرٍ ثَانٍ يُصَرِّحُ بِهَذَا الزَّجْرِ الْمُطْلَقِ
[Machine] Regarding prayer, we stand between the rows and are not to be pushed out of them.
عَنِ الصَّلَاةِ بَيْنَ السَّوَارِي وَنُطْرَدُ عَنْهَا طَرْدًا»
ذِكْرُ اسْتِعْمَالِ الْمُصْطَفَى ﷺ الْفِعْلَ الْمُضَادَّ لَهُ فِي الظَّاهِرِ
[Machine] I asked Bilal, "Where did the Messenger of Allah ﷺ pray when he entered the Kaaba?" He said, "Between the two forward pillars." Then I forgot to ask him how many units he prayed.
سَأَلْتُ بِلَالًا أَيْنَ صَلَّى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ حِينَ دَخَلَ الْكَعْبَةَ؟ قَالَ «بَيْنَ الْعَمُودَيْنِ الْمُتَقَدِّمَيْنَ» قَالَ وَنَسِيتُ أَنْ أَسْأَلَهُ كَمْ صَلَّى
ذِكْرُ وَصْفِ الْإِمَامَةِ الَّتِي تَكُونُ لِلْمَأْمُومِ وَالْإِمَامِ مَعًا
I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say: He who leads the people in prayer, and he does so at the right time, will receive, as well as those who are led (in prayer) will get (the reward). He who delays (prayer) from the appointed time will be responsible (for this delay) and not those who are led in prayer. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 580)
سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ «مَنْ أُمَّ النَّاسَ فَأَصَابَ الْوَقْتَ وَأَتَمَّ الصَّلَاةَ فَلَهُ وَلَهُمْ وَمَنِ انْتَقَصَ مِنْ ذَلِكَ شَيْئًا فَعَلَيْهِ وَلَا عَلَيْهِمْ»
ذِكْرُ الزَّجْرِ عَنْ قِيَامِ الْمَأْمُومِينَ إِلَى الصَّلَاةِ حَتَّى يَرَوْا إِمَامَهُمْ
My father said. "Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'If the Iqama is pronounced then do not stand for the prayer till you see me (in front of you).' " (Using translation from Bukhārī 637)
عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ «إِذَا أُقِيمَتِ الصَّلَاةُ فَلَا تَقُومُوا حَتَّى تَرَوْنِي»
ذِكْرُ الْخَبَرِ الْمُسْتَقْصِي لِلَفْظَةِ الْمُخْتَصَرَةِ الَّتِي ذَكَرْنَاهَا
"The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: 'When the Iqamah for prayer is said, do not stand up until you see that I have come out.'" (Using translation from Nasāʾī 687)
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «إِذَا أُقِيمَتِ الصَّلَاةُ فَلَا تَقُومُوا حَتَّى تَرَوْنِي قَدْ خَرَجْتُ إِلَيْكُمْ»
ذِكْرُ مَا يُسْتَحَبُّ لِلْمَرْءِ إِذَا لَمْ يَنْتَظِرْهُ الْمُؤَذِّنُ وَالْقَوْمُ عِنْدَ إِتْيَانِهِ الصَّلَاةَ أَنْ لَا يَجِدَ فِي نَفْسِهِ عَلَيْهِمْ وَإِنْ كَانَ أَفْضَلَهُمْ
I was in the company of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ in the expedition of Tabuk. He abandoned the main road before the dawn prayer, and I also did the same along with him. The Prophet ﷺ made his camel kneel down and (went to ) relieve himself. He then came back and I poured water upon his hands from the skin-vessel. He then washed his hands and face. He tried to get his forearms out (of the gown), but the sleeves of the gown were too narrow, so he entered back both his hands, and brought them out from beneath the gown. He washed his forearms up to the elbows and wiped his head and wiped over his socks.80 He then mounted (his camel) and we began to proceed until we found people offering the prayer. They brought forward ‘Abd al-Rahman b. ‘Awf who was leading them in prayer. The Prophet ﷺ stood in the row side by side with other Muslims. He performed the second rak’ah of the prayer behind ‘Abd al-Rahman b. ‘Awf. Then ‘Abd al-Rahman uttered salutation. The Prophet ﷺ stood to perform the remaining rak’ah of the prayer. The Muslims were alarmed. They began to utter tasbih (Subhan Allah) presuming that they had offered prayer before the Prophet ﷺ had done. When he uttered the salutation (i.e. finished his prayer), he said: You were right, or (he said) you did well. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 149)
أَخْبَرَهُ أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ أَبَاهُ يَقُولُ عَدَلَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَأَنَا مَعَهُ فِي غَزْوَةِ تَبُوكَ قَبْلَ الْفَجْرِ فَعَدَلْتُ مَعَهُ فَأَنَاخَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَبَرَّزَ ثُمَّ جَاءَنِي فَسَكَبْتُ عَلَى يَدَيْهِ مِنَ الْإِدَاوَةِ فَغَسَلَ كَفَّيْهِ ثُمَّ غَسَلَ وَجْهَهُ ثُمَّ حَسَرَ عَنْ ذِرَاعَيْهِ فَضَاقَ كُمُّ جُبَّتِهِ فَأَدْخَلَ يَدَيْهِ فَأَخْرَجَهُمَا مِنْ تَحْتِ الْجُبَّةِ فَغَسَلَهُمَا إِلَى الْمِرْفَقِ وَمَسَحَ بِرَأْسِهِ ثُمَّ تَوَضَّأَ عَلَى خُفَّيْهِ ثُمَّ رَكِبَ فَأَقْبَلْنَا نَسِيرُ حَتَّى نَجْدَ النَّاسَ فِي الصَّلَاةِ قَدَّمُوا عَبْدَ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنَ عَوْفٍ فَصَلَّى بِهِمْ حِينَ كَانَ وَقْتُ الصَّلَاةِ وَوَجَدْنَا عَبْدَ الرَّحْمَنِ قَدْ رَكَعَ بِهِمْ رَكْعَةً مِنْ صَلَاةِ الْفَجْرِ فَقَامَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ مَعَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ وَرَاءَ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ عَوْفٍ فَصَلَّى الرَّكْعَةَ الثَّانِيَةَ مِنْ صَلَاةِ الْفَجْرِ ثُمَّ سَلَّمَ عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ فَقَامَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ يُتِمُّ صَلَاتَهُ فَفَزِعَ الْمُسْلِمُونَ وَأَكْثَرُوا التَّسْبِيحَ لِأَنَّهُمْ سَبَقُوا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَلَمَّا سَلَّمَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ لَهُمْ «أَحْسَنْتُمْ» أَوْ «قَدْ أَصَبْتُمْ»
ذِكْرُ الْأَمْرِ لِلْقَوْمِ إِذَا احْتَبَسَ عَنهُمْ إِمَامُهُمْ أَنْ يُقَدِّمُوا رَجُلًا يُصَلِّي بِهِمْ
[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ stood out, then he came and I poured water over him from the ewer. He washed his face, then he went to wipe his arms and the sleeve of the Messenger of Allah's jubba (cloak) was too tight, which was made of Roman wool. So he put his hand in a slit at the waist of it and washed them to the elbows. Then he wiped his head and wiped over his socks. Then he turned and I was with him, and he found people praying. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ stood in the row, and 'Abdul Rahman ibn 'Awf led them in prayer. We caught up with him and he had already prayed one rak'ah, so we prayed the second one with 'Abdul Rahman. When he finished the prayer, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ stood up and completed his prayer. The people were surprised by that. When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ finished his prayer, he said, "You have done well when your imam was detained and the prayer came, by appointing someone to lead you in prayer."
تَبَرَّزَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ ثُمَّ جَاءَ فَأَفْرَغْتُ عَلَيْهِ مِنَ الْإِدَاوَةِ فَغَسَلَ وَجْهَهُ ثُمَّ ذَهَبَ يَحْسِرُ عَنْ ذِرَاعَيْهِ فَضَاقَ كُمُّ جُبَّةِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَهِيَ صُوفٌ رُومِيَّةٌ فَأَدْخَلَ يَدَهُ فِي فُرُوجٍ كَانَ فِي خَصْرِهَا فَغَسَلَهُمَا إِلَى الْمِرْفَقَيْنِ وَمَسَحَ بِرَأْسِهِ وَمَسَحَ عَلَى خُفَّيْهِ ثُمَّ أَقْبَلَ وَأَنَا مَعَهُ فَوَجَدَ النَّاسَ فِي الصَّلَاةِ فَقَامَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ فِي الصَّفِّ وَعَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ عَوْفٍ يَؤُمُّهُمْ فَأَدْرَكْنَاهُ وَقَدْ صَلَّى رَكْعَةً فَصَلَّيْنَا مَعَ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ الثَّانِيَةَ فَلَمَّا سَلَّمَ قَامَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَأَتَمَّ صَلَاتَهُ فَفَزِعَ النَّاسُ لِذَلِكَ فَلَمَّا قَضَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ صَلَاتَهُ قَالَ «قَدْ أَصَبْتُمْ وَأَحْسَنْتُمْ إِذَا احْتَبَسَ إِمَامُكُمْ وَحَضَرَتِ الصَّلَاةُ فَقَدِّمُوا رَجُلًا يَؤُمُّكُمْ»
ذِكْرُ مَا يَجِبُ عَلَى الْمَأْمُومِ وَهُوَ قَائِمٌ انْتِظَارُ سُجُودِ إِمَامِهِ ثُمَّ يَتْبَعُهُ بِالسُّجُودِ بَعْدَهُ
[Machine] We were informed by Al-Bara' and he was truthful, that they used to "stand up" (i.e., remain standing) when they prayed with the Prophet ﷺ until they saw that he had prostrated, then they would prostrate themselves.
حَدَّثَنَا الْبَرَاءُ وَكَانَ غَيْرَ كَذُوبٍ أَنَّهُمْ كَانُوا «إِذَا صَلُّوا مَعَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَامُوا قِيَامًا حَتَّى يَرَوْهُ قَدْ سَجَدَ ثُمَّ يَسْجُدُونَ»
ذِكْرُ خَبَرٍ ثَانٍ يُصَرِّحُ بِصِحَّةِ مَا ذَكَرْنَاهُ
[Machine] "We, when we used to pray behind the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , would not sit down until we saw him prostrated, then we would prostrate."
«كُنَّا إِذَا صَلَّيْنَا خَلْفَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ لَمْ نَزَلْ قِيَامًا حَتَّى نَرَاهُ قَدْ سَجَدَ ثُمَّ نَسْجُدُ»
ذِكْرُ الْإِخْبَارِ عَمَّا يَجِبُ عَلَى الْمَرْءِ مِنَ الِاقْتِدَاءِ بِصَلَاةِ إِمَامِهِ وَإِنْ كَانَ مُقَصِّرًا فِي بَعْضِ حَقَائِقِهَا
[Machine] "On the authority of the Prophet ﷺ, he said: 'There will come a time when there will be people who will perform the prayer, so if they complete it, it is for you and for them. But if they fall short, it is their own responsibility and also yours.'"
عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ «سَيَأْتِي أَقْوَامٌ أَوْ يَكُونُ أَقْوَامٌ يُصَلُّونَ الصَّلَاةَ فَإِنْ أَتَمُّوا فَلَكُمْ وَلَهُمْ وَإِنْ نَقَصُوا فَعَلَيْهِمْ وَلَكُمْ»
ذِكْرُ الزَّجْرِ عَنْ أَنْ يُبَادَرَ الْمَأْمُومُ الْإِمَامَ فِي الرُّكُوعِ وَالسُّجُودَ
“The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: ‘Do not bow or prostrate before me. No matter how far ahead of you I bow, you will catch up with me when I stand up, and no matter how far ahead of you I prostrate, you will catch up with me when I raise my head. I have become bulky.’” (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 963)
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «لَا تُبَادِرُونِي بِالرُّكُوعِ وَالسُّجُودِ؛ فَإِنِّي مَهْمَا أَسْبِقْكُمْ بِهِ إِذَا رَكَعْتُ تُدْرِكُونِي بِهِ إِذَا سَجَدْتُ وَمَهْمَا أَسْبِقْكُمْ بِهِ إِذَا سَجَدْتُ تُدْرِكُونِي بِهِ إِذَا رَفَعْتُ إِنِّي قَدْ بَدَّنْتُ»
ذِكْرُ الزَّجْرِ عَنْ مُبَادَرَةِ الْمَأْمُومِ بِالرُّكُوعِ وَالسُّجُودِ
[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Do not precede me in the bowing and prostration, for I have begun them. And no matter how much I precede you in it when I bow, you will catch up with me when I rise, and no matter how much I precede you in it when I prostrate, you will catch up with me when I rise."
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «لَا تَسْبِقُونِي بِالرُّكُوعِ وَلَا بِالسُّجُودِ فَإِنِّي قَدْ بَدَّنْتُ وَإِنِّي مَهْمَا أَسْبِقْكُمْ بِهِ حِينَ أَرْكَعُ تُدْرِكُونِي بِهِ حِينَ أَرْفَعُ وَمَا سَبَقْتُكُمْ بِهِ حِينَ أَسْجُدُ تُدْرِكُونِي بِهِ حِينَ أَرْفَعُ»
ذِكْرُ الْخَبَرِ الْمُدْحِضِ قَوْلَ مَنْ زَعَمَ أَنَّ هَذَا الْخَبَرَ تَفَرَّدَ بِهِ ابْنُ مُحَيْرِيزٍ، عَنْ مُعَاوِيَةَ
[Machine] I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saying: "O people, I have already started the prayer, so do not rush ahead of me in bowing and prostration, but I will precede you in them as you will catch up with what you missed."
سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ «أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ إِنِّي قَدْ بَدَّنْتُ أَوْ بَدَّنْتُ فَلَا تَسْبِقُونِي بِالرُّكُوعِ وَالسُّجُودِ وَلَكِنِّي أَسْبِقُكُمْ إِنَّكُمْ تُدْرِكُونَ مَا فَاتَكُمْ»
ذِكْرُ إِبَاحَةِ تَكْبِيرِ الْمَأْمُومِينَ عِنْدَ فَرَاغِ الْإِمَامِ مِنَ الصَّلَاةِ
I used to recognize the completion of the prayer of the Prophet ﷺ by hearing Takbir. (Using translation from Bukhārī 842)
«كُنْتُ أَعْرِفُ انْقِضَاءَ صَلَاةِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ بِالتَّكْبِيرِ»
ذِكْرُ مَا يُسْتَحَبُّ لِلْإِمَامِ إِذَا فَرَغَ مِنَ الصَّلَاةِ وَخَلْفَهُ الرِّجَالُ وَالنِّسَاءُ أَنْ يَلْبَثَ فِي مَقَامِهِ لِيَنْصَرِفَ النِّسَاءُ قَبْلَ الرِّجَالِ إِلَى بُيُوتِهِنَّ
(the wife of the Prophet) In the lifetime of Messenger of Allah ﷺ the women used to get up when they finished their compulsory prayers with Taslim. The Prophet ﷺ and the men would stay on at their places as long as Allah will. When the Prophet ﷺ got up, the men would then get up. (Using translation from Bukhārī 866)
أَنَّ أُمَّ سَلَمَةَ زَوْجَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ أَخْبَرَتْهَا «أَنَّ النِّسَاءَ فِي عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ كُنَّ إِذَا سَلَّمْنَ مِنَ الصَّلَاةِ قُمْنَ وَثَبَتَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَمَنْ صَلَّى مَعَهُ مِنَ الرِّجَالِ مَا شَاءَ اللَّهُ فَإِذَا قَامَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَامَ الرِّجَالُ»
ذِكْرُ مَا يَجِبُ عَلَى الرِّجَالِ إِذَا سَلَّمَ إِمَامُهُمُ التَّرَبُّصُ لِانْصِرَافِ النِّسَاءِ ثُمَّ يَقُومُونَ لِحَوَائِجِهِمْ
Umm Salamah told her that during the time of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, when the women said the taslim at the end of the prayer, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and the men who had prayed with him would stay put for as long as Allah ﷺ willed. Then, when the Messenger of Allah ﷺ got up, the men did too. (Using translation from Nasāʾī 1333)
كُنَّ النِّسَاءُ فِي عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ «إِذَا سَلَّمَ مِنَ الْمَكْتُوبَةِ قُمْنَ وَثَبَتَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَمَنْ صَلَّى خَلْفَهُ مِنَ الرِّجَالِ فَإِذَا قَامَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَامَ الرِّجَالُ»
