Sahih

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

حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْيَمَانِ، قَالَ أَخْبَرَنَا شُعَيْبٌ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ هُرْمُزَ، مَوْلَى بَنِي عَبْدِ الْمُطَّلِبِ ـ وَقَالَ مَرَّةً مَوْلَى رَبِيعَةَ بْنِ الْحَارِثِ ـ أَنَّ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ ابْنَ بُحَيْنَةَ ـ وَهْوَ مِنْ أَزْدِ شَنُوءَةَ وَهْوَ حَلِيفٌ لِبَنِي عَبْدِ مَنَافٍ، وَكَانَ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم‏.‏ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم صَلَّى بِهِمُ الظُّهْرَ فَقَامَ فِي الرَّكْعَتَيْنِ الأُولَيَيْنِ لَمْ يَجْلِسْ، فَقَامَ النَّاسُ مَعَهُ حَتَّى إِذَا قَضَى الصَّلاَةَ، وَانْتَظَرَ النَّاسُ تَسْلِيمَهُ، كَبَّرَ وَهْوَ جَالِسٌ، فَسَجَدَ سَجْدَتَيْنِ قَبْلَ أَنْ يُسَلِّمَ ثُمَّ سَلَّمَ‏.‏
(he was from the tribe of Uzd Shanu'a and was the ally of the tribe of `Abdul-Manaf and was one of the companions of the Prophet): Once the Prophet (ﷺ) led us in the Zuhr prayer and stood up after the second rak`a and did not sit down. The people stood up with him. When the prayer was about to end and the people were waiting for him to say the Taslim, he said Takbir while sitting and prostrated twice before saying the Taslim and then he said the Taslim."
Narrated by Narrated `Abdullah bin Buhaina:

Context

In this hadith, the Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) led the Zuhr prayer and unexpectedly stood up after the second rak`a without sitting down. The congregation followed his lead, remaining standing until he completed the prayer. Afterward, he performed two prostrations before concluding the prayer with Taslim. This incident highlights the flexibility and adaptability in prayer practices.

Modern Application

In daily salah, it's important to remain attentive and adaptable to the flow of the prayer. If a mistake occurs, as demonstrated by the Prophet (ﷺ), one can correct it with humility and sincerity, ensuring the prayer remains a meaningful connection with Allah.

Topics

This hadith is tagged with Prayer and Prophetic Conduct because it illustrates the Prophet's (ﷺ) approach to handling unexpected situations during prayer.
