732. Narrated Anas bin Mālik Al-Anṣārī: رضي الله عنه: Allāh's Messenger ﷺ rode a horse and fell down and the right side of his body was injured. On that day he offered one of the Ṣalāt (prayers) sitting and we also offered Ṣalāt behind him sitting. When the Prophet ﷺ finished the Ṣalāt with Taslīm, he said, "The Imām is to be followed(1) and if he offers Ṣalāt standing then pray standing, and bow when he bows, and raise your heads when he raises his head; prostrate when he prostrates; and if he says 'Sami' Allāhu liman ḥamida, you should say 'Rabbanā wa lakal ḥamd.'"

Arabic text

732 - حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو اليَمَانِ، قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنَا شُعَيْبٌ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنِي أَنَسُ بْنُ مَالِكٍ الأَنْصَارِيُّ: أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ رَكِبَ فَرَسًا فَجُحِشَ شِقُّهُ الأَيْمَنُ - قَالَ أَنَسٌ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ - فَصَلَّى لَنَا يَوْمَئِذٍ صَلاَةً مِنَ الصَّلَوَاتِ وَهُوَ قَاعِدٌ، فَصَلَّيْنَا وَرَاءَهُ قُعُودًا، ثُمَّ قَالَ لَمَّا سَلَّمَ: " إِنَّمَا جُعِلَ الإِمَامُ لِيُؤْتَمَّ بِهِ، فَإِذَا صَلَّى قَائِمًا فَصَلُّوا قِيَامًا، وَإِذَا رَكَعَ فَارْكَعُوا، وَإِذَا رَفَعَ فَارْفَعُوا، وَإِذَا سَجَدَ فَاسْجُدُوا، وَإِذَا قَالَ: سَمِعَ اللَّهُ لِمَنْ حَمِدَهُ، فَقُولُوا: رَبَّنَا وَلَكَ الحَمْدُ "
