[AI] The Prophet ﷺ was thrown off a horse onto the trunk of a palm tree and his foot was dislocated. We went to him to console him and found him praying, so we prayed with his prayer while standing. When he finished praying, he said, "Indeed, the imam is appointed to be followed, so if he prays standing, then you also pray standing. And if he prays sitting, then you also pray sitting. Do not stand while he is sitting, as the people of Persia do with their kings."

صُرِعَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ مِنْ فَرَسٍ عَلَى جِذْعِ نَخْلَةٍ فَانْفَكَّتْ قَدَمُهُ فَدَخَلْنَا عَلَيْهِ نَعُودُهُ فَوَجَدْنَاهُ يُصَلِّي فَصَلَّيْنَا بِصَلَاتِهِ وَنَحْنُ قِيَامٌ فَلَمَّا صَلَّى قَالَ إِنَّمَا جُعِلَ الْإِمَامُ لِيُؤْتَمَّ بِهِ فَإِنْ صَلَّى قَائِمًا فَصَلُّوا وَإِنْ صَلَّى جَالِسًا فَصَلُّوا جُلُوسًا وَلَا تَقُومُوا وَهُوَ جَالِسٌ كَمَا يَفْعَلُ أَهْلُ فَارِسٍ بِعُظَمَائِهَا

[AI] The Prophet ﷺ was thrown off his horse and fell on the trunk of a palm tree, causing his foot to dislocate. We entered upon him while he was praying in a drinking vessel belonging to Aisha, sitting down. We followed his prayer and we were standing. Then, we entered upon him again while he was praying, sitting down. We followed his prayer and we were standing. He gestured to us to sit down. When he finished praying, he said, "Indeed, the Imam is appointed to be followed. So, if he prays standing, then pray standing, and if he prays sitting, then pray sitting and do not stand while he is sitting, as the Persians do with their leaders."

صُرِعَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ عَنْ فَرَسٍ لَهُ فَوَقَعَ عَلَى جِذْعِ نَخْلَةٍ فَانْفَكَّتْ قَدَمُهُ فَدَخَلْنَا عَلَيْهِ نَعُودُهُ وَهُوَ يُصَلِّي فِي مَشْرُبَةٍ لِعَائِشَةَ جَالِسًا فَصَلَّيْنَا بِصَلَاتِهِ وَنَحْنُ قِيَامٌ ثُمَّ دَخَلْنَا عَلَيْهِ مَرَّةً أُخْرَى وَهُوَ يُصَلِّي جَالِسًا فَصَلَّيْنَا بِصَلَاتِهِ وَنَحْنُ قِيَامٌ فَأَوْمَأَ إِلَيْنَا أَنِ اجْلِسُوا فَلَمَّا صَلَّى قَالَ «إِنَّمَا جُعِلَ الْإِمَامُ لِيُؤْتَمَّ بِهِ فَإِذَا صَلَّى قَائِمًا فَصَلُّوا قِيَامًا وَإِنْ صَلَّى جَالِسًا فَصَلُّوا جُلُوسًا وَلَا تَقُومُوا وَهُوَ جَالِسٌ كَمَا يَصْنَعُ أَهْلُ فَارِسٍ بِعُظَمَائِهَا»

[AI] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ had a horse that stumbled on the trunk of a palm tree, so he got off and entered the house of Aisha. We then brought his horse back, and found him praying voluntary prayers while sitting. So we prayed while standing, then we approached him again and found him praying the obligatory prayers while sitting. He then told us to stand up, and gestured for us to sit, so we sat. Then he said, "When the Imam prays while sitting, then pray sitting. And when the Imam prays while standing, then pray standing. Do not do as the Persians do to their noble ones."

رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ عَنْ فَرَسٍ لَهُ عَلَى جِذْعِ نَخْلَةٍ فَانْفَكَّتْ قَدَمُهُ فَقَعَدَ فِي بَيْتِ عَائِشَةَ ؓ فَأَتَيْنَاهُ نَعُودُهُ فَوَجَدْنَاهُ يُصَلِّي تَطَوُّعًا فَصَلَّى قَاعِدًا وَنَحْنُ قِيَامٌ ثُمَّ أَتَيْنَاهُ فَوَجَدْنَاهُ يُصَلِّي صَلَاةً مَكْتُوبَةً قَاعِدًا قَالَ فَقُمْنَا فَأَوْمَأَ إِلَيْنَا فَجَلَسْنَا ثُمَّ قَالَ ائْتَمُّوا بِالْإِمَامِ إِنْ صَلَّى قَاعِدًا فَصَلُّوا قُعُودًا وَإِنْ صَلَّى قَائِمًا فَصَلُّوا قِيَامًا وَلَا تَفْعَلُوا كَمَا تَفْعَلُ فَارِسَ لِعُظَمَائِهَا

"إِنَّمَا الإِمام جُنَّةٌ، فإِن صلَّى قائمًا فصلوا قيامًا، وإِنَّ صلَّى جالسًا فصلَّوا جلوسًا".

" صُرعَ رَسُولُ الله ﷺ عَنْ فَرَسٍ لَهُ فَوَقَعَ عَلَى جِذعٍ فَانْفَكَّت قَدَمُهُ، فَدَخَلْنَا عَلَيْهِ نَعُودُهُ وَهُوَ يُصَلِّى فِى مَشْرَبَةٍ لِعَائِشَةَ جَالِسًا، فَصَلَّيْنَا بِصَلاَتِهِ وَنَحْنُ قِيَامٌ، ثُمَّ دَخَلْنَا عَلَيْهِ مَرَّة أُخْرَى وَهُوَ يُصَلِّى جَالِسًا، فَصَلَّيْنَا بِصَلاَتِهِ، وَنَحْنُ قِيامٌ، فَأوْمأَ إِلَيْنَا أَنِ اجْلِسُوا، فَلَمَّا صَلَّى قَالَ: إِنَّمَا جُعِلَ الإِمَامُ لِيُؤْتَمَّ بِهِ، فَإِذَا صَلَّى قَائِمًا فَصَلُّوا قِيَامًا، وَإِذَا صَلَّى جَالِسًا فَصَلُّوا جُلُوسًا (*)، وَلاَ تَقَومُوا وَهُو جَالِسٌ كَمَا يَفْعَلُ أهْل فَارِسَ بِعُظَمَائِهَا ".
