( أَخْبَرَنَا ) أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ الْحَارِثِ، أَنْبَأَ أَبُو مُحَمَّدِ بْنُ حَيَّانَ، ثَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ الْحَسَنِ، ثَنَا أَبُو عَامِرٍ، ثَنَا الْوَلِيدُ، أَخْبَرَنِي ابْنُ لَهِيعَةَ، عَنْ بُكَيْرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ الْأَشَجِّ، عَنِ الْحَارِثِ بْنِ مُخَلَّدٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ: أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ عُمَرَ بْنَ الْخَطَّابِ يَقُولُ:
إِذَا رَفَعَ أَحَدُكُمْ رَأْسَهُ فَظَنَّ أَنَّ الْإِمَامَ قَدْ رَفَعَ فَلْيُعِدْ رَأْسَهُ، فَإِذَا رَفَعَ الْإِمَامُ رَأْسَهُ فَلْيَمْكُثْ قَدْرَ مَا تَرَكَ
