1113. Narrated ‘Āishah رضي الله عنها: Allāh’s Messenger ﷺ offered Ṣalāt (prayer) in his house while sitting during his illness and the people offered Ṣalāt behind him standing and he pointed to them to sit down. When he had finished the Ṣalāt, he said, “The Imām is to be followed and so when he bows you should bow; and when he lifts his head you should also do the same.”(1) [The provision of this Hadīth was abrogated by the last action of the Prophet ﷺ. See H. No.687].
1113 - حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، عَنْ مَالِكٍ، عَنْ هِشَامِ بْنِ عُرْوَةَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهَا، أَنَّهَا قَالَتْ: صَلَّى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي بَيْتِهِ وَهُوَ شَاكٍ، فَصَلَّى جَالِسًا وَصَلَّى وَرَاءَهُ قَوْمٌ قِيَامًا، فَأَشَارَ إِلَيْهِمْ أَنِ اجْلِسُوا، فَلَمَّا انْصَرَفَ قَالَ: «إِنَّمَا جُعِلَ الإِمَامُ لِيُؤْتَمَّ بِهِ، فَإِذَا رَكَعَ فَارْكَعُوا، وَإِذَا رَفَعَ فَارْفَعُوا»
