[1] (Ch.1) The call to Salât (prayer) pronounced loudly to indicate that the time of praying is due. And it is as follows:Allâhu Akbar, Allâhu Akbar, Allâhu Akbar Allâhu Akbar, Ash-hadu an lâ ilâha ill-Allâh, Ash-hadu an lâ ilâha ill-Allâh, Ash-hadu anna Muhammadan Rasûl-Ullâh, Ash-hadu anna Muhammadan Rasûl-Ullâh, Haiya 'alas-Salâ(h), Haiya 'alas-Salâ(h), Haiya 'alal-Falâh, Haiya 'alal-Falâh, Allâhu Akbar, Allâhu Akbar, Lâ ilâha ill-Allâh. (See Sahîh Al-Bukhârî , Vol. 1, Page 334).
حديث ابْنِ عُمَرَ كَانَ يَقُولُ: كَانَ الْمُسْلِمُونَ حِينَ قَدِمُوا الْمَدِينَةَ يَجْتَمِعُونَ فَيَتَحيَّنُونَ الصَّلَاةَ، لَيْسَ يُنَادَى لَهَا؛ فَتَكَلَّمُوا يَوْمًا فِي ذَلِكَ، فَقَالَ بَعْضُهُمْ اتَّخِذُوا نَاقُوسًا مِثْلَ نَاقُوسِ النَّصَارَى، وَقَالَ بَعْضُهُمْ: بَلْ بُوقًا مِثْلَ بُوقِ الْيَهُودِ؛ فَقَالَ عُمَرُ رضي الله عنها: أَوَلًا تَبْعَثُونَ رَجُلًا يُنَادِي بِالصَّلَاةِ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ: يَا بِلَالُ قُمْ فَنَادِ بِالصَّلَاةِ.
When the Muslims arrived at Al-Madîna, they used to assemble for As-Salât (the prayers), and used to guess the time for it. During those days, the practice of Adhân for the Salât (prayer) had not been introduced yet. Once they discussed this problem regarding the call for Salât .Some people suggested the use of a bell like the Christians, others proposed trumpet, like the horn used by the Jews, but 'Umar was the first to suggest that a man should call (the people) for As-Salât ; so Allâh's Messenger صلى الله عليه وسلم ordered Bilâl to get up and pronounce the Adhân for As-Salât . ( Sahîh Al-Bukhârî, Hadîth No. 578, Vol. 1 )
4/2. Chapter:
حديث أَنَسٍ، قَالَ: ذَكَرُوا النَّارَ وَالنَّاقُوسَ، فَذَكَرُوا الْيَهُودَ وَالنَّصَارَى، فَأُمِرَ بِلَالٌ أَنْ يَشْفَعَ الأَذَانَ وَأَنْ يُوتِرَ الإِقَامَةَ.
The people mentioned the fire and the bell [they suggested those as signals to indicate the starting of Salât (prayer)], and by that they mentioned the Jews and the Christians. Then Bilal was ordered to pronounce Adhân for the Salât by saying its wordings twice (in doubles) and for the Iqâma (the call for the actual standing for the Salât in rows) by saying its wordings once (in singles). ( Iqâma is pronounced when the people are ready for Salât). ( Sahîh Al-Bukhârî, Hadîth No. 577, Vol. 1)
4/7. Chapter:
حديث أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخدْرِيِّ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ، قَالَ: إِذَا سَمِعْتُمُ النِّدَاءَ فَقُولُوا مِثْلَ مَا يَقُولُ الْمُؤَذِّنُ.
Allâh's Messenger said, "Whenever you hear the Adhân, say just as the Mu'adhdhin is saying." ( Sahîh Al-Bukhârî, Hadîth No. 585, Vol. 1)
4/8. Chapter:
حديث أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ، قَالَ: إِذَا نُودِيَ لِلصَّلَاةِ أَدْبَرَ الشَّيْطَان وَلَهُ ضُرَاطٌ حَتَّى لَا يَسْمَعَ التَّأْذِينَ، فَإِذَا قُضِيَ النِّدَاءُ أَقْبَلَ، حَتَّى إِذَا ثُوِّبَ بِالصَّلَاةِ أَدْبَرَ، حَتَّى إِذَا قُضِيَ التَّثْوِيبُ أَقْبَلَ، حَتَّى يَخْطُرَ بَيْنَ الْمَرْءِ وَنَفْسِهِ، يَقُولُ اذْكُرْ كَذَا، اذْكُرْ كَذَا، لِمَا لَمْ يَكُنْ يَذْكُرُ؛ حَتَّى يَظَلَّ الرَّجُلُ لَا يَدْرِي كَمْ صَلَّى.
Allâh's Messenger said, "When the Adhân is pronounced, Satan takes to his heels and passes wind with noise during his flight, in order not to hear the Adhân. When the Adhân is completed he comes back and again takes to his heels when the Iqâma is pronounced, and after its completion, he returns again till he whispers into the heart of the person [to divert his attention from his Salât (prayer)], and makes him remember things which he does not recall to his mind before the Salât; and that causes him to forget how much he has prayed." ( Sahîh Al-Bukhârî, Hadîth No. 582, Vol. 1)
4/9. Chapter:
حديث عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ، قَالَ: رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ إِذَا قَامَ فِي الصَّلَاةِ رَفَعَ يدَيْهِ حَتَّى تَكُونَا حَذْوَ مَنْكِبَيْهِ، وَكَانَ يَفْعَلُ ذَلِكَ حِينَ يُكبِّرُ لِلرُّكُوعِ، وَيَفْعَلُ ذَلِكَ إِذَا رَفَعَ رَأْسَهُ مِنَ الرُّكُوعِ، وَيَقُولُ: سَمِعَ اللهُ لِمَنْ حَمِدَهُ، وَلَا يَفْعَلُ ذَلِكَ فِي السُّجُودِ.
I saw that whenever Allâh's Messenger صلى الله عليه وسلم stood for As-Salât (the prayer), he used to raise both his hands up to the shoulders, and used to do the same on saying the Takbîr for bowing and on raising his head from it and used to say, " Sami' Allâhu liman hamidah. " But he did not do that (i.e. raising his hands) in prostrations. ( Sahîh Al-Bukhârî, Hadîth No. 703, Vol. 1)
حديث مَالِكِ بْنِ الْحُوَيْرِثِ عَنْ أَبِي قِلَابَةَ، أَنَّهُ رَأَىَ مَالِكَ بْنَ الْحُوَيْرِثِ إِذَا صَلَّى كَبَّرَ وَرَفَعَ يَدَيْهِ، وَإِذَا أَرَادَ أَنْ يَرْكَعَ رَفَعَ يَدَيْهِ، وَإِذَا رَفَعَ رَأْسَهُ مِنَ الرُّكُوعِ رَفَعَ يَدَيْهِ، وَحَدَّثَ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ صَنَعَ هكَذَا.
I saw Mâlik bin Hûwairith رضي الله عنه saying Takbîr and raising both his hands [on starting As-Salât (the prayer)] and raising his hands on bowing and also on raising his head after bowing. Mâlik bin Huwairith said, "Allâh's Messenger صلى الله عليه وسلم did the same." ( Sahîh Al-Bukhârî, Hadîth No. 704, Vol. 1)
4/10. Chapter:
[1] (Ch.10) Takbîr : Saying, Allâhu Akbar (Allâh is the Most Great).
حديث أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، أَنَّهُ كَانَ يُصَلِّي بِهِمْ فَيُكَبِّرُ كلَّمَا خَفَضَ وَرَفَعَ، فَإِذَا انْصَرَفَ قَالَ: إِنِّي لأَشْبَهُكُمْ صَلَاةً بِرَسُولِ الله ﷺ.
When Abû Huraira رضي الله عنه led us in Salât (prayer) he used to say Takbîr on each bowing and rising. On the completion of the Salât he used to say, "My Salât is more similar to the Salât of Allâh's Messenger ﷺ than that of anyone of you." ( Sahîh Al-Bukhârî, Hadîth No. 752, Vol. 1 )
حديث أَبي هُرَيْرَةَ، قَالَ: كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ إِذَا قَامَ إِلَى الصَّلَاةِ يُكَبِّرُ حِينَ يَقُومُ، ثُمَّ يُكَبِّرُ حِينَ يَرْكَعُ، ثُمَّ يَقُولُ: سَمِعَ الله لِمَنْ حَمِدَهُ حِينَ يَرْفَعُ صُلْبَهُ مِنَ الرُّكُوعِ، ثُمَّ يَقُولُ وَهُوَ قَائِمٌ: رَبَّنَا وَلَكَ الْحَمْدُ، ثُمَّ يُكَبِّرُ حِينَ يَهْوِي، ثُمَّ يُكَبِّرُ حِينَ يَرْفَعُ رَأْسَهُ، ثُمَّ يُكَبِّرُ حِينَ يَسْجُدُ، ثُمَّ يُكَبِّرُ حِينَ يَرْفَعُ رَأْسَهُ؛ ثُمَّ يَفْعَلُ ذَلِكَ فِي الصَّلَاةِ كُلِّهَا حَتَّى يَقْضِيَهَا؛ وَيُكَبِّرُ حِينَ يَقُومُ مِنَ الثِّنْتَيْنِ بَعْدَ الْجُلُوسِ.
Whenever Allâh's Messenger ﷺ stood for As-Salât (the prayer), he said Takbîr on starting the Salât (prayer) and then on bowing. On rising from bowing he said, " Sami' Allâhu liman hamidah," and then while standing straight he used to say, " Rabbânâ Walakal-hamd ". Al-Laith said, "(The Prophet ﷺ said), ' Wa-lakal-hamd '".He used to say Takbîr on prostrating and on raising his head from prostration; again he would say Takbîr on prostrating and raising his head. He would then do the same in the whole of As-Salât till it was completed. And on rising from the second Rak'a after sitting (for At-Tahiyyât), he used to say Takbîr. ( Sahîh Al-Bukhârî, Hadîth No. 755, Vol. 1 )
حديث عِمْرَانَ بْنِ حُصَيْنِ عَنْ مُطَرِّفِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ، قَالَ: صَلَّيْتُ خَلْفَ عَلِيِّ بْنِ أَبِي طَالِبٍ، أَنَا وَعِمْرَانُ بْنُ حُصَيْنٍ، فَكَانَ إِذَا سَجَدَ كَبَّرَ، وَإِذَا رَفَعَ رَأْسَهُ كَبَّرَ، وَإِذَا نَهَضَ مِنَ الرَكْعَتَيْنِ كَبَّرَ؛ فَلَمَّا قَضَى الصَّلَاةَ أَخَذَ بِيَدِي عِمْرَانُ بْنُ حُصَيْنٍ فَقَالَ: لَقَدْ ذَكَّرَنِي هذَا صَلَاةَ مُحَمَّدٍ ﷺ، أَوْ قَالَ: لَقَدْ صَلَّى بِنَا صَلَاةَ مُحَمَّدٍ ﷺ.
'Imrân bin Husain and I offered Salât (prayer) behind 'Alî bin Abî Tâlib رضى الله عنه. When 'Alî prostrated, he said the Takbîr, when he raised his head, he said the Takbîr and when he got up for the third Rak'a he said the Takbîr.On completion of As-Salât, 'Imrân took my hand and said, "This (i.e. 'Alî) made me remember As-Salât of Muhammad ﷺ." Or he said, "He led us in a Salât like that of Muhammad ﷺ." ( Sahîh Al-Bukhârî, Hadîth No. 753, Vol. 1 ) obligatory. And if one does not know as to how to recite Al-Fâtiha and if it is not possible for him to learn it, then he can recite of other (portion of the Qur'ân) than it, as much as may be easy for him.
4/11. Chapter:
حديث عُبَادَةَ بْنِ الصَّامِتِ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ: لَا صَلَاة لِمَنْ لَمْ يَقْرَأْ بِفَاتِحَةِ الْكِتَابِ⦗٨١⦘ أخرجه البخاري في: كتاب الأذان: ٩٥ باب وجوب القراءة للإمام والمأموم في الصلوات كلها.
Allâh's Messenger صلى الله عليه وسلم said, "Whoever does not recite Surât Al-Fâtiha (the first Sûrah of the Qur'ân) in his Salât (prayer), his Salât is invalid." ( Sahîh Al-Bukhâri, Hadîth No. 723, Vol. 1)
