English translation
1239. It was narrated that Abu Hurairah said: "The Messenger of Allâh ﷺ said: The Imâm is appointed to be followed. When he says Allâhu Akbar, then say Allâhu Akbar; when he bows, then bow; when he says Samî Allâhu liman hamidah, then say Rabbanâ wa lakal-hamd; when he prostrates then prostrate; if he prays standing then pray standing, and if he prays sitting down then pray sitting down." (Sahih)
