"إِنَّمَا جُعِلَ الإِمامُ جُنَّةً، فإِذا صلَّى قاعدًا فصلوُّا قعُودًا، وإِذا قال سمع اللَّه لمن حمده فقولوا: اللهمَّ ربنَّا لك الحمدُ، فإِذا وافق قول أَهِل الأَرضِ قولَ أَهلِ السماءِ غُفر له ما تقدمَ من ذَنبه".

Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "When the Imam says, "Samiʿa l-lahu liman hamidah," you should say, "Allahumma Rabbana laka l-hamd." And if the saying of any one of you coincides with that of the angels, all his past sins will be forgiven."

The Imam is appointed to be followed. So recite takbir when he recites it, and bow down when he bows down and when he utters:" Allah listens to him who praises Him," say" O Allah, our Lord, for Thee be the praise." And when he prays, standing, you should pray standing. And when he prays sitting, all of you should pray sitting.

[Machine] Abu Hurairah narrated that the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ said: "Whoever obeys me has indeed obeyed Allah, and whoever disobeys me has indeed disobeyed Allah. Whoever obeys the leader has indeed obeyed me, for the leader is like a fortress. If someone prays while sitting, then everyone should pray sitting or kneeling. When he says 'Sami Allahu liman hamidah' (Allah hears whoever praises Him), then say 'Rabbana lakal hamd' (Our Lord, praise is for You). For when the saying of the people of the earth coincides with the saying of the people of the heavens, his previous sins will be forgiven."
