عَنْ مُعَاوِيَةَ بْنِ أَبِي سُفْيَانَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: ((لَا تُبَادِرُونِي بِرُكُوعٍ وَلَا بِسُجُودٍ فَإِنَّهُ مَهْمَا أَسْبِقُكُمْ بِهِ إِذَا رَكَعْتُ تُدْرِكُونِي إِذَا رَفَعْتُ، وَمَهْمَا أَسْبِقُكُمْ بِهِ إِذَا سَجَدْتُّ تُدْرِكُونِي إِذَا رَفَعْتُ، إِنِّي قَدْ بَدَّنْتُ))
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Muawiyah bin Abi Sufyan (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Do not precede me in bowing (ruku‘) and prostration (sujud). If I precede you in bowing, you will catch up with me when I rise; similarly, if I precede you in prostration, you will catch up with me when I rise. Indeed, now I have become old.
