877. It was narrated from Abu Sa'eed Al-Khudri that he heard the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ say: "When the Imām says: 'Sami' Allāhu liman hamidah (Allāh hears those who praise Him),' say: 'Allāhumma, Rabbanā wa lakal-hamd (O Allāh! O our Lord! To You is the praise).'" (Hasan)

Arabic text

877 - حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ أَبِي بُكَيْرٍ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا زُهَيْرُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَقِيلٍ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ الْمُسَيِّبِ، عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيِّ، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ: " إِذَا قَالَ الْإِمَامُ: سَمِعَ اللَّهُ لِمَنْ حَمِدَهُ، فَقُولُوا: اللَّهُمَّ رَبَّنَا وَلَكَ الْحَمْدُ "

Commentary

The follower shall only say the second part of the Arabic invocation, meaning: "O our Lord, to You is the praise"; he will not say the first one meaning: 'Allāh hears those who praise Him'. The Imām shall, however, say both, since it is proved from the Sunnah of the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ.
