The time for prayer became due, and the Mu 'adhdhin came to Abü Bakr and said: "Will you lead the people in prayer, and I will say the Iqâmah?" He said: "Yes." So Abü Bakr led the people in prayer, then the Messenger of Allah Ot came while the people were still praying. He came and stood in the row, and the people started clapping. Abil Bakr would not pay attention to anything while he was praying, but when the people's clapping increased, he turned around and saw the Messenger of Allah . The Messenger of Allah ji gestured to him to stay where he was. Abü Bakr raised his hands, praising Allah, the Mighty and Sublime, for the command of the Messenger of Allah ;. Then Abü Bakr moved backwards until he was level with the row, and the Prophet came forward and (continued the) prayers. Then when he had finished he said: "0 Abü Bakr, what prevented you from staying put when I told you to?" Abfl Bakr said: "It is not for the son of Abü Quhâfah to pray in front of the Messenger of Allah " The Messenger of Allah jW said: "Why did I see you clapping so much? If something happens to a man when he is in prayers, let him say: 'Subzân- Allah,' for if he says 'Subzân- Allah' it will be noted. Clapping is only for women."
