Chapter: About The Imam Praying While Sitting Down.
Hadith 606
حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ ، وَيَزِيدُ بْنُ خَالِدِ بْنِ مَوْهَبٍ الْمَعْنَى ، أَنَّ اللَّيْثَ حَدَّثَهُمْ ،عَنْ أَبِي الزُّبَيْرِ ، عَنْ جَابِر ، قَالَ : اشْتَكَى النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَصَلَّيْنَا وَرَاءَهُ وَهُوَ قَاعِدٌ وَأَبُو بَكْرٍ يُكَبِّرُ لِيُسْمِعَ النَّاسَ تَكْبِيرَهُ ، ثُمَّ سَاقَ الْحَدِيثَ .
Jabir said: when the prophet ﷺ became seriously ill, we prayed behind him while he was sitting and Abu Bakr was calling “Allah is most great “ to cause the people to hear the TAKBIR. Then he (the narrators) narrated the rest of the tradition.
