The Book on Salat (Prayer)
Sahih

The Arabic includes the chain of narration (sanad) and the collector's commentary; the English translation shows the Prophet's words only.

حَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ مُوسَى الأَنْصَارِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا مَعْنٌ، حَدَّثَنَا مَالِكٌ، عَنْ سُمَىٍّ، عَنْ أَبِي صَالِحٍ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ ‏ "‏ إِذَا قَالَ الإِمَامُ سَمِعَ اللَّهُ لِمَنْ حَمِدَهُ ‏.‏ فَقُولُوا رَبَّنَا وَلَكَ الْحَمْدُ فَإِنَّهُ مَنْ وَافَقَ قَوْلُهُ قَوْلَ الْمَلاَئِكَةِ غُفِرَ لَهُ مَا تَقَدَّمَ مِنْ ذَنْبِهِ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ ‏.‏ وَالْعَمَلُ عَلَيْهِ عِنْدَ بَعْضِ أَهْلِ الْعِلْمِ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم وَمَنْ بَعْدَهُمْ أَنْ يَقُولَ الإِمَامُ سَمِعَ اللَّهُ لِمَنْ حَمِدَهُ رَبَّنَا وَلَكَ الْحَمْدُ ‏.‏ وَيَقُولُ مَنْ خَلْفَ الإِمَامِ رَبَّنَا وَلَكَ الْحَمْدُ ‏.‏ وَبِهِ يَقُولُ أَحْمَدُ ‏.‏ وَقَالَ ابْنُ سِيرِينَ وَغَيْرُهُ يَقُولُ مَنْ خَلْفَ الإِمَامِ سَمِعَ اللَّهُ لِمَنْ حَمِدَهُ رَبَّنَا وَلَكَ الْحَمْدُ ‏.‏ مِثْلَ مَا يَقُولُ الإِمَامُ ‏.‏ وَبِهِ يَقُولُ الشَّافِعِيُّ وَإِسْحَاقُ ‏.‏
Allah's Messenger said: "When the Imam says: (Sami Allahu liman hamidah) 'Allah listens to those who praise Him. Then (all of you) say: (Rabbana wa lakal-hamd) 'O our Lord! And to You is the praise for whoever's saying concurs with the saying of the angels, then his past sins will be forgiven."
Narrated by Abu Hurairah narrated that :

Context

In this hadith, Abu Hurairah narrates that the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ instructed the congregation to respond with 'Rabbana wa lakal-hamd' after the Imam says 'Sami Allahu liman hamidah.' This practice emphasizes the importance of unity in prayer and the significance of praising Allah. The hadith highlights that those who align their response with the angels will have their past sins forgiven, reinforcing the spiritual benefits of communal worship.

Modern Application

During daily salah, when the Imam leads the prayer and says 'Sami Allahu liman hamidah,' it is essential for the followers to respond with 'Rabbana wa lakal-hamd.' This practice not only fosters a sense of community but also serves as a reminder of the importance of humility and gratitude towards Allah.

Topics

This hadith is tagged with Prayer and Supplication because it emphasizes the communal aspect of prayer and the importance of supplication in seeking forgiveness.
