854. Al-Barā' bin 'Azib said: “I carefully watched Muḥammad ﷺ” — Abū Kāmil (one of the narrators) said: “The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ” — “pray, and saw that his standing was similar (in length) to his Rukū' and prostration. And (the time that he) stood up after Rukū' was the same as his prostration, and (the time that he) sat between the two prostrations, and (the length of) his prostrations, and the (time that he sat) after the Taslīm before leaving (i.e., Taslīm).” (Ṣaḥīḥ) Abū Dāwūd said: Musad-dad said: “His Rukū', and his standing up between the two Rak'ahs, and his (first) prostration, and his sitting between the two prostrations, and his (second) prostration, and his sitting between the Taslīm and before leaving, were all the same.”

Arabic text

854 - حَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ، وَأَبُو كَامِلٍ، دَخَلَ حَدِيثُ أَحَدِهِمَا فِي الْآخَرِ، قَالَا: حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَوَانَةَ، عَنْ هِلَالِ بْنِ أَبِي حُمَيْدٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ أَبِي لَيْلَى، عَنِ الْبَرَاءِ بْنِ عَازِبٍ، قَالَ: " رَمَقْتُ مُحَمَّدًا صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - وَقَالَ أَبُو كَامِلٍ: رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - فِي الصَّلَاةِ، فَوَجَدْتُ قِيَامَهُ كَرَكْعَتِهِ، وَسَجْدَتِهِ وَاعْتِدَالَهُ فِي الرَّكْعَةِ كَسَجْدَتِهِ، وَجِلْسَتَهُ بَيْنَ السَّجْدَتَيْنِ، وَسَجْدَتَهُ مَا بَيْنَ التَّسْلِيمِ وَالِانْصِرَافِ، قَرِيبًا مِنَ السَّوَاءِ "، قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُدَ: قَالَ مُسَدَّدٌ: فَرَكْعَتُهُ وَاعْتِدَالُهُ بَيْنَ الرَّكْعَتَيْنِ فَسَجْدَتُهُ، فَجِلْسَتُهُ بَيْنَ السَّجْدَتَيْنِ فَسَجْدَتُهُ، فَجِلْسَتَهُ بَيْنَ التَّسْلِيمِ وَالِانْصِرَافِ، قَرِيبًا مِنَ السَّوَاءِ

Commentary

It is recommended that the bowing, standing, prostrating, sitting between prostrations and sitting after the Taslīm — all be performed calmly, peacefully, without hurry, and be prolonged reasonably proportionate to the length of recitation.
