حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى، عَنْ سُفْيَانَ، حَدَّثَنِي عَبْدُ الْعَزِيزِ بْنُ رُفَيْعٍ، عَنْ شَيْخٍ مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ، قَالَ:

إِنَّ رَجُلًا دَخَلَ الْمَسْجِدَ، فَسَمِعَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ خَفْقَ نَعْلَيْهِ، فَلَمَّا سَلَّمَ قَالَ: كَيْفَ أَدْرَكْتَنَا ؟ قَالَ: سُجُودًا فَسَجَدْتُ، قَالَ: كَذَلِكَ فَافْعَلْ، وَلَا تَعْتَدُّوا بِالسَّجْدَةِ: مَا لَمْ تُدْرِكُوا الرَّكْعَةَ، فَإِذَا رَأَيْتُمُ الْإِمَامَ قَائِمًا فَقُومُوا، وَرَاكِعًا: فَارْكَعُوا، وَسَاجِدًا: فَاسْجُدُوا، وَجَالِسًا: فَاجْلِسُوا

✧ A man entered the mosque, and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ heard the sound of his sandals. When he said the salutation, he said: 'How did you catch us?' He said: 'In prostration, so I prostrated.' He said: 'Do that, but do not count the prostration unless you catch the rak'ah. If you see the imam standing, then stand; if bowing, then bow; if prostrating, then prostrate; if sitting, then sit.'
