SAHIH BUKHARI VOLUME 1 > BOOK 12: CHARACTERISTICS OF PRAYER
Allah’s Apostle fell from a horse and the right side of his body was injured. We went to enquire
about his health meanwhile it was time for the prayer and he led the prayer sitting and we also
prayed while sitting. On completion of the prayer he said, “The Imam is to be followed; say Takbir
when he says it; bow when he bows; rise when he rises and when he says “Sami’a-l-lahu Liman
hamida,” say, “Rabbana walaka-lhamd”, and prostrate if he prostrates.” Sufyan narrated the same
from Ma’mar. Ibn Juraij said that his (the Prophet’s) right leg had been injured.
