Chapter: Prayer in Congregation

وَحَدَّثَنِي عَنْ مَالِكٍ، عَنْ هِشَامِ بْنِ عُرْوَةَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ، زَوْجِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم أَنَّهَا قَالَتْ صَلَّى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم وَهُوَ شَاكٍ فَصَلَّى جَالِسًا وَصَلَّى وَرَاءَهُ قَوْمٌ قِيَامًا فَأَشَارَ إِلَيْهِمْ أَنِ اجْلِسُوا فَلَمَّا انْصَرَفَ قَالَ ‏ "‏ إِنَّمَا جُعِلَ الإِمَامُ لِيُؤْتَمَّ بِهِ فَإِذَا رَكَعَ فَارْكَعُوا وَإِذَا رَفَعَ فَارْفَعُوا وَإِذَا صَلَّى جَالِسًا فَصَلُّوا جُلُوسًا ‏"‏ ‏.‏

Urdu and English translation

حضرت ام المومنیں عائشہ رضی اللہ تعالیٰ عنہا سے روایت ہے کہ نماز پڑھی رسول اللہ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم نے بیماری سے بیٹھ کر اور لوگوں نے کھڑے ہو کر پڑھنا شروع کیا تب اشارہ کیا آپ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم نے ان سے کہ بیٹھ جاؤ پھر جب فارغ ہوئے نماز سے اور فرمایا امام اس لئے مقرر ہوا ہے کہ اس کی پیروی کی جائے جب امام رکوع کرے تم بھی رکوع کرو اور جب سر اٹھائے تم بھی سر اٹھاؤ اور جب امام بیٹھ کر نماز پڑھے تم بھی بیٹھ کر نماز پڑھو ۔

Yahya related to me from Malik from Hisham ibn Urwa from his father that A'isha, the wife of the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, "The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, prayed while he was ill. He prayed sitting, and some people prayed behind him standing, and he indicated to them to sit down. When he left, he said, 'The imam is only appointed to be followed. When he goes into ruku, go into ruku and when he rises, rise and if he prays sitting, pray sitting

Names are exactly as printed. A narrator is identified only where that is certain; tapping any other name searches for the possible men. Grades are the rijāl works’ — reliable narrators alone do not make a hadith ṣaḥīḥ (irregularity and hidden defects are weighed too).
