Ways of The Prophet (S.A.W)

GUIDANCE FOR THE MUQTADIS (FOLLOWERS)

Hadrat Abu Hurairah (Radi Allaahu Ta’ala Anhu) narrated ALLAAH’s messenger as saying, “When you come to the Salaah and we are prostrating ourselves (in sajdah), you must prostrate yourselves without reckoning it as part of your Salaah; and if anyone is present at your Ruku he has been present at your Salaah.” [Abu Dawud]

Hadrat Abu Hurairah (Radi Allaahu Ta’ala Anhu) narrated ALLAAH’s messenger as saying, “The Imam is appointed only to be followed, so when he says ‘ALLAAH is most great’ say  (ALLAAH is most great) and when he recites from QURAAN loudly, listen to it quietly” [Abu Dawud etc.]

Hadrat Abu Hurairah (Radi Allaahu Ta’ala Anhu) narrated ALLAAH’s messenger as saying,” Do not try to go ahead of the Imam. When he says  (ALLAAH is most great) when he says  (Nor of those who err) say  (Aameen); when he bows, bow; and when he says  (ALLAAH listen to him who praises him) and say,  (O ALLAAH our lord, to Thee be the praise)” [Bukhari; Muslim]
