Mishkat al-Masabih #638
Prayer
The Arabic includes the chain of narration (sanad) and the collector's commentary; the English translation shows the Prophet's words only.
وَعَنْ أَبِي قَتَادَةَ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ:
إِذَا أُقِيمَتِ الصَّلَاةُ فَلَا تَقُومُوا حَتَّى تَرَوْنِي قَدْ خرجت "
Abu Qatada reported God’s Messenger as saying, "When the iqama is pronounced, do not get up till you see I have come out.”
(Bukhari and Muslim.)
