English translation

1036. It was reported from Qais bin Abī Hāzim, from Al-Mughīrah bin Shu'bah who said: "The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: 'If the Imām stands up after two Rak'ahs, then if he remembers (that he should have sat down) before he stands up completely, let him sit down, and if he has stood up completely, then let him not sit down, and instead prostrate the two prostrations of forgetfulness.” (Da'if Jiddan) Abū Dāwūd said: I have not narrated in this book of mine any ḥadīth from Jābir Al-Ju'fī (one of the narrators) except this one.

Arabic text

1036 - حَدَّثَنَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ عَمْرٍو، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ الْوَلِيدِ، عَنْ سُفْيَانَ، عَنْ جَابِرٍ يَعْنِي الْجُعْفِيَّ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا الْمُغِيرَةُ بْنُ شُبَيْلٍ الْأَحْمَسِيُّ، عَنْ قَيْسِ بْنِ أَبِي حَازِمٍ، عَنِ الْمُغِيرَةِ بْنِ شُعْبَةَ، قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «إِذَا قَامَ الْإِمَامُ فِي الرَّكْعَتَيْنِ، فَإِنْ ذَكَرَ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَسْتَوِيَ قَائِمًا فَلْيَجْلِسْ، فَإِنِ اسْتَوَى قَائِمًا فَلَا يَجْلِسْ، وَيَسْجُدْ سَجْدَتَيِ السَّهْوِ»، قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُدَ: «وَلَيْسَ فِي كِتَابِي عَنْ جَابِرٍ الْجُعْفِيِّ إِلَّا هَذَا الْحَدِيثُ»

Commentary

If one has already stood up erect, before he could remember that he has missed the Tashah-hud, he should continue standing and continue with his prayer until he completes it, and then, at the end, perform two prostrations before the Taslīm.
