5658. Narrated 'Aishah: رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهَا: During the ailment of the Prophet ﷺ some people came to visit him. He led them in Salāt (prayer) while sitting, but they offered Salāt (prayer) standing, so he waved to them to sit down. When he had finished the Salāt (prayer), he said, "An Imām is to be (1) (Chap 11) Al-Mushrikūn: polytheists, pagans, idolaters, and disbelievers in the Oneness of Allāh and in His Messenger Muhammad (ﷺ). followed, so when he bows, you should bow, and when he raises his head, you should raise yours, and if he offers Ṣalāt (prayer) sitting, you should pray sitting." Abū 'Abdullāh said: Al-Ḥumaidī said, "(The order of) this narration has been abrogated by the last action of the Prophet ﷺ, as he led the Ṣalāt (prayer) sitting, while the people offered Ṣalāt (prayer) standing behind him."

5658 - حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ المُثَنَّى، حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى، حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامٌ، قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنِي أَبِي، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهَا: أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ دَخَلَ عَلَيْهِ نَاسٌ يَعُودُونَهُ فِي مَرَضِهِ، فَصَلَّى بِهِمْ جَالِسًا، فَجَعَلُوا يُصَلُّونَ قِيَامًا، فَأَشَارَ إِلَيْهِمْ: «اجْلِسُوا» فَلَمَّا فَرَغَ قَالَ: «إِنَّ الإِمَامَ لَيُؤْتَمُّ بِهِ، فَإِذَا رَكَعَ فَارْكَعُوا، وَإِذَا رَفَعَ فَارْفَعُوا، وَإِنْ صَلَّى جَالِسًا فَصَلُّوا جُلُوسًا» قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ: قَالَ الحُمَيْدِيُّ: «هَذَا الحَدِيثُ مَنْسُوخٌ، لِأَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ آخِرَ مَا صَلَّى صَلَّى قَاعِدًا وَالنَّاسُ خَلْفَهُ قِيَامٌ»
