Hadith 853
اُردوEn
حَدَّثَنَا مُوسَى بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ ، أَخْبَرَنَا ثَابِتٌ ، وَحُمَيْدٌ ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ ، قَالَ : " مَا صَلَّيْتُ خَلْفَ رَجُلٍ أَوْجَزَ صَلَاةً مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي تَمَامٍ ، وَكَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، إِذَا قَالَ : سَمِعَ اللَّهُ لِمَنْ حَمِدَهُ ، قَامَ حَتَّى نَقُولَ : قَدْ أَوْهَمَ ، ثُمَّ يُكَبِّرُ وَيَسْجُدُ ، وَكَانَ يَقْعُدُ بَيْنَ السَّجْدَتَيْنِ حَتَّى نَقُولَ : قَدْ أَوْهَمَ " .
Anas bin Malik said: I did not offer prayer behind anyone more brief than the one offered by the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and that was perfect. When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: “Allah listens to him who praises Him, ” he stood long we thought that he had omitted something; then he say takbir (Allah is most great) and prostrate, and would sit between the two prostrations so long that we thought that he had omitted something.

Hafiz Muhammad Ameen
825. Commentary: From this hadith, it is clearly understood that the prayer of the Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) was light in terms of recitation, but in terms of the performance of bowing (ruku‘), prostration (sujud), and other pillars, it was tranquil, complete, and of the highest standard.

By “the lightest prayer,” it is meant that he would not recite long passages (qira’ah),
similarly, he would also avoid lengthy supplications (du‘a).
And by “the most complete prayer,” it means that he would perform all the pillars (arkan), sunnahs, and recommended acts (mustahabbat) of the prayer with excellence and composure.

888. Commentary:
Shaykh Shawkani rahimahullah states that the maximum number (of repetitions) in bowing (ruku) and prostration (sujud) is not established by any authentic hadith. According to the length of the prayer, one may recite the tasbihat as many times as desired, without any specific limit or assistance.
