وَبِإِسْنَادِهِ قَالَ
خَرَجَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ إِلَى بَنِي عَمْرِو بْنِ عَوْفٍ فَحَضَرَتِ الصَّلَاةُ فَجَاءَ بِلَالٌ إِلَى أَبِي بَكْرٍ فَقَالَ يَا أَبَا بَكْرٍ إِنَّ الصَّلَاةَ قَدْ حَانَتْ وَحُبِسَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فَتَؤُمُّ النَّاسَ؟ قَالَ إِنْ شِئْتَ فَأَقَامَ بِلَالٌ الصَّلَاةَ فَتَقَدَّمَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ فَجَاءَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فَأَخَذَ النَّاسُ فِي التَّصْفِيحِ وَكَانَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ ؓ لَا يَلْتَفِتُ فِي صَلَاتِهِ فَلَمَّا أَكْثَرَ النَّاسُ الْتَفَتَ فَإِذَا بِرَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فِي الصَّفِّ فَأَشَارَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ فَرَفَعَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ يَدَهُ فَحَمِدَ اللهَ ثُمَّ رَجَعَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ الْقَهْقَرَى وَرَاءَهُ حَتَّى رَجَعَ فِي الصَّفِّ فَتَقَدَّمَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فَصَلَّى بِالنَّاسِ فَلَمَّا فَرَغَ أَقْبَلَ عَلَى النَّاسِ فَقَالَ أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ مَا لَكُمْ حِينَ نَابَكُمْ شَيْءٌ فِي الصَّلَاةِ أَخَذْتُمْ بِالتَّصْفِيحِ إِنَّمَا التَّصْفِيحُ لِلنِّسَاءِ فَمَنْ نَابَهُ شَيْءٌ فِي صَلَاتِهِ فَلْيَقُلْ سُبْحَانَ اللهِ فَإِنَّهُ لَا يَسْمَعُهُ أَحَدٌ إِلَّا الْتَفَتَ إِلَيْهِ يَا أَبَا بَكْرٍ مَا مَنَعَكَ أَنْ تُصَلِّيَ حِينَ أَشَرْتُ إِلَيْكَ؟ قَالَ مَا كَانَ يَنْبَغِي لِابْنِ أَبِي قُحَافَةَ أَنْ يُصَلِّيَ بَيْنَ يَدَيْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ

✧ The Messenger of Allah ﷺ went out to Banu 'Amr b. 'Awf. The prayer became due, so Bilal came to Abu Bakr and said: “O Abu Bakr, the prayer time has come and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ is delayed. Will you lead the people?” He said: “If you wish.” Bilal called the iqamah, and Abu Bakr stepped forward. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ came, and the people began clapping. Abu Bakr ؓ would not turn around during his prayer. When the people did it repeatedly, he turned and saw the Messenger of Allah ﷺ in the row. The Prophet ﷺ gestured, so Abu Bakr raised his hand and praised Allah, then retreated backward until he returned to the row. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ stepped forward and led the people in prayer. When he finished, he faced the people and said: “O people, why is it that when something occurred to you in prayer you resorted to clapping? Clapping is only for women. Whoever has something occur to him in prayer should say ‘Glory be to Allah,’ for no one hears it except that he turns to him. O Abu Bakr, what prevented you from praying when I gestured to you?” He said: “It was not fitting for the son of Abu Quhafah to pray in front of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ.”
