[Machine] "The Messenger of Allah ﷺ performed the prayer of fear with the same sections. A group of people stood behind him and another group stood in the face of the enemy. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said Allahu Akbar (Allah is the Greatest) and the group behind him also said Allahu Akbar. They then performed the ruku (bowing) and sujud (prostration) and raised their heads along with him. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ remained seated and the group behind him prostrated for themselves for the second time. Then they stood up and walked backward until they were behind the Messenger of Allah ﷺ . Another group then stood behind the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and they said Allahu Akbar. They performed ruku and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ performed the second sujud and they also prostrated with him. Then the Messenger of Allah ﷺ stood up from his rakah (unit of prayer) and they also prostrated for themselves for the second time. Then both groups stood together behind the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and he performed a rakah with them, and they all performed ruku and sujud together. They raised their heads along with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ as he did everything very quickly. Then the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said the salaam (salutation) and they also saluted. Then the Messenger of Allah ﷺ stood up, with people joining him in all of his prayers."

This tradition has been transmitted by 'Aishah through a different chain of narrators. She said: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ uttered the takbir and the section that was in the same row with him also uttered the takbir. He then bowed and they also bowed, and he prostrated and they also prostrated. Then he raised his head and they also raised (their heads). The Messenger of Allah ﷺ then remained seated. They prostrated alone and stood up and retraced their footsteps and stood behind them. Then the other section came; they stood up and uttered the takbir and bowed by themselves. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ prostrated himself and they also prostrated with him. Then the Messenger of Allah ﷺ stood up and they performed the second prostration by themselves. Then both the sections stood up and prayed with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. He bowed and they also bowed, and then he prostrated himself and they also prostrated themselves. Then he returned and performed the second prostration and they also prostrated with him as quickly as possible, showing no slackness in quick prostration. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ then uttered the salutation. After that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ stood up. Thus everyone participated in the entire prayer.

[Machine] Al-Zubair reported from Aisha, the wife of the Prophet ﷺ , that she said, "The Messenger of Allah ﷺ led the people in the prayer of fear during the Battle of al-Riqaa' from the palm grove. She said, "Then the Messenger of Allah ﷺ split the people into two groups. One group stood behind him, while the other group stood to face the enemy." She said, "The Messenger of Allah ﷺ made the takbeer and the group behind him also made the takbeer. Then he bowed and the group behind him also bowed. Then he prostrated and the group behind him also prostrated. Then the Messenger of Allah ﷺ raised his head and those behind him also raised their heads. Then the Messenger of Allah ﷺ sat while they performed the second prostration for themselves. Then they got up and prostrated on their feet, walking towards al-Qa'qara until they were away from their previous position. She said, "Then the other group came forward and they stood behind the Messenger of Allah ﷺ . They made the takbeer and then they bowed for themselves and then the Messenger of Allah ﷺ made the second prostration and they also prostrated with him. Then the Messenger of Allah ﷺ stood up for his second rakah and they also prostrated for themselves in their second prostration. Then both groups stood and they all performed the bowing with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ . They all prostrated and then they all raised their heads together. All of this happened very quickly with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ not delaying or reducing anything that he was able to do. Then the Messenger of Allah ﷺ made the salam and they also made the salam. Then the Messenger of Allah ﷺ stood up and the people joined him in the rest of their prayer."

[Machine] "The Messenger of Allah ﷺ performed the prayer of fear. He divided the people into two groups: one group stood behind him, and another group stood in front of him. When the enemy approached, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ raised his voice in takbir (saying Allahu Akbar), and the group that stood behind him also raised their voices in takbir. Then he bowed and they all bowed, prostrated and they all prostrated. Then he raised his head and they all raised their heads, and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ sat down while the others prostrated for themselves a second prostration. Then they stood up and proceeded towards the back until they were no longer behind him, and another group emerged and stood behind the Messenger of Allah ﷺ . They raised their voices in takbir, then bowed and prostrated for themselves. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ performed his second prostration, and they prostrated with him. Then the Messenger of Allah ﷺ stood up in his prayer and they prostrated for themselves a second prostration. Finally, both groups stood together behind the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , and he performed a rak'ah (unit of prayer) with them, and they all bowed and prostrated. All of these actions were performed by the Messenger of Allah ﷺ very swiftly, without any delay, to the best of his ability. Then the Messenger of Allah ﷺ gave the salam (Islamic greeting) and they also gave the salam. Then the Messenger of Allah ﷺ stood up again, and the people followed him in all his prayers."

Did you pray in time of danger with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ? AbuHurayrah replied: Yes. Marwan then asked: When? AbuHurayrah said: On the occasion of the Battle of Najd. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ stood up to offer the afternoon prayer. One section stood with him (to pray) and the other was standing before the enemy, and their backs were towards the qiblah. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ uttered the takbir and all of them too uttered the takbir, i.e. those who were with him and those who were facing the enemy. Then the Messenger of Allah ﷺ offered one rak'ah and the section that was with him also prayed one rak'ah. He then prostrated himself and those who were with him also prostrated, while the other section was standing before the enemy. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ then stood up and the section with him also stood up. They went and faced the enemy and the section that was previously facing the enemy stepped forward. They bowed and prostrated while the Messenger of Allah ﷺ was standing in the same position. Then they stood up and the Messenger of Allah (may peace be upon) prayed another rak'ah and all of them bowed and prostrated along with him. After that the section that was standing before the enemy came forward and they bowed and prostrated, while the Messenger of Allah ﷺ remained seated and also those who were with him. The salutation then followed. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ uttered the salutation and all of them uttered it together. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ prayed two rak'ahs and each of the two sections prayed one rak'ah with him (and the other by themselves). (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 1240)

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , led the people in the prayer of fear on the battlefield of Raqa. The Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , split the people into two groups. One group stayed behind him, while the other group stood facing the enemy. The group that stayed behind the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , said the takbeer (saying Allahu Akbar) and the group that prayed behind them said the takbeer after them. Then the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , performed a rukoo (bowing) and they followed him in that, then he performed a sujood (prostration) and they followed him in that. Then the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , raised his head from sujood and they raised their heads with him. Then the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , sat down, and they prostrated to themselves the second prostration. Then they stood up and walked backwards, until they were behind him. Then the other group came forward and stood behind the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ . They said the takbeer and performed the rukoo, then the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , performed a sujood and they followed him in that. Then the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , stood up for the second rakah and they prostrated to themselves the second prostration. Then both groups stood up and lined up behind the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ . The Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , performed a rukoo and they all performed a rukoo. Then he performed a sujood and they all performed a sujood. Then he raised his head from sujood and they raised their heads with him.
