830. It was narrated that Abū Iṣḥāq said: "I heard 'Abdullāh bin Yazīd delivering a Khutbah. He said: 'Al-Barā', who was no liar, told us that when they prayed with the Messenger of Allāh, ﷺ, he would raise his head from bowing and they would remain standing until they saw him prostrate, then they would prostrate.'" (Ṣaḥīḥ)
829 - أَخْبَرَنَا يَعْقُوبُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ عُلَيَّةَ قَالَ: أَنْبَأَنَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ يَزِيدَ يَخْطُبُ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا الْبَرَاءُ وَكَانَ غَيْرَ كَذُوبٍ: «أَنَّهُمْ كَانُوا إِذَا صَلَّوْا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَرَفَعَ رَأْسَهُ مِنَ الرُّكُوعِ قَامُوا قِيَامًا حَتَّى يَرَوْهُ سَاجِدًا، ثُمَّ سَجَدُوا»

It is essential that the worshippers bend their backs to sink down to perform the act of prostration when the prayer-leader places his forehead on the ground. Likewise, while rising to perform the upcoming unit of prayer (Rak'ah), one should wait until the prayer-leader stands upright. Thereupon, the followers should begin rising so that no possibility of going ahead of the Imâm remains.
