Narrated Anas:
The Prophet did not come out for three days. The people stood for the prayer and Abu Bakr went
ahead to lead the prayer. (In the meantime) the Prophet caught hold of the curtain and lifted it.
When the face of the Prophet appeared we had never seen a scene more pleasing than the face of the
Prophet as it appeared then. The Prophet beckoned to Abu Bakr to lead the people in the prayer and
then let the curtain fall. We did not see him (again) till he died.

SAHIH BUKHARI VOLUME 1 > BOOK 11: CALL TO PRAYERS (ADHAAN)
Once the Iqama was pronounced and the Prophet was talking to a man (in a low voice) in a
corner of the mosque and he did not lead the prayer till (some of) the people had slept (dozed in a
sitting posture) .

Volume 1, Book 11, Number 577:
Narrated Anas:
The people mentioned the fire and the bell (they suggested those as signals to indicate the starting
of prayers), and by that they mentioned the Jews and the Christians. Then Bilal was ordered to pro –
nounce Adhan for the prayer by saying its wordings twice, and for the Iqama (the call for the actual
standing for the prayers in rows) by saying its wordings once. (Iqama is pronounced when the
people are ready for the prayer).

Volume 1, Book 11, Number 579:
Narrated Anas:
Bilal was ordered to repeat the wording of the Adhan for prayers twice, and to pronounce the
wording of the Iqamas once except “Qad-qamat-is-Salat”.

Volume 1, Book 10, Number 571:
Narrated Anas:
The Prophet said, “If anyone forgets a prayer he should pray that prayer when he remembers it.
There is no expiation except to pray the same.” Then he recited: “Establish prayer for My (i.e. Allah’s)
remembrance.” (20.14).

Volume 1, Book 10, Number 549:
Narrated Anas:
Zaid bin Thabit said, “We took the “Suhur” (the meal taken before dawn while fasting is observed)
with the Prophet and then stood up for the (morning) prayer.” I asked him how long the interval
between the two (Suhur and prayer) was. He replied, ‘The interval between the two was just suffi –
cient to recite fifty to Sixth ‘Ayat.”

Volume 1, Book 10, Number 546:
Narrated Anas:
The Prophet delayed the’lsha’ prayer till midnight and then he offered the prayer and said, “The
people prayed and slept but you have been in prayer as long as you have been waiting for it (the
prayer).” Anas added: As if I am looking now at the glitter of the ring of the Prophet on that night.

Volume 1, Book 10, Number 508:
Narrated Anas:
The Prophet said, “Whenever anyone of you offers his prayer he is speaking in private to his Lord.
So he should not spit to his right but under his left foot.” Qatada said, “He should not spit in front of
him but to his left or under his feet.” And Shu’ba said, “He should not spit in front of him, nor to his
right but to his left or under his foot.” Anas said: The Prophet said, “He should neither spit in the dir –
ection of his Qibla nor to his right but to his left or under his foot.”
