Narrated: Hattan bin Abdullah al-Raqiishi
I observed prayer
with Abu Musu al-’Ash'ari and when he was in the qa'dah, one
among the people said: The prayer has been made obligatory
along with piety and Zakat. He (the narrator) said: When Abu
Musa had finished the prayer after salutation he tuined
(towards the people) and said: Who amongst you said such and
such a thing? A hush fell on the people. He again said.. Who
amongst you has said such and such a thing? A hush fell on the
people. He (Abu Musa) said: Hattan, It is perhaps you that
have uttered it. He (Hattan) said No. I have not uttered it. I
was afraid that you might be annoyed with me on account of
this. A person amongst the people said: It was I who said it,
and In this I intended nothing but good. Abu Musa said: Don't
you know what you have to recite in your prayers? Verily the
Messenger of Allah (may peace be upon him) addressed us and
explained to us all Its aspects and taught us how to observe
prayer (properly). He (the Holy Prophet) said: When you pray
make your rows straight and let anyone amongst you act as your
Imim. Recite the takbir when he recites it and when be
recites: Not of those with whom Thou art angry. nor of those
who go astray, say: Amin. Allah would respond you. And when he
(the Imim) recites the takbir, you may also recite the takbir,
for the Imam bows before you and raises himself before you.
Then the Messenger of Allah (may peace be upon him) said: The
one is equivalent to the other. And when he says: Allah
listens to him who praises Him, you should say: 0 Allah, our.
Lord, to Thee be the praise, for Allah, the Exalted and
Glorious, has vouchsafed (us) through the tongue of His
Apostle (may peace be upon him) that Allah listens to him who
praises Him. And when he (the Imim) recites the takbir and
prostrates, you should also recite the takbir and prostrate,
for the Imim prostrates before you and raises himself before
you. The Messenger' of Allah (may peace be upon him) said: The
one is equi-’ valent to the other. And when he (the Imim) sits
for Qa'da (for tashahhud) the first words of every one amongst
you should be: All services rendered by words, acts of worship
and all good things are due to Allah. Peace be upon you,0
Apostle, and Allah's mercy and blessings. Peace be upon us and
upon the upright servants of Allah. I testify that there is no
god but Allah, and I testify that Mubammad is His servant and
His Messenger.
