بَابُ جَوَازِ جَهْرِ الْإِمَامِ بِتَكْبِيرِ الصَّلَاةِ لِيَسْمَعَهُ الْمَأْمُومُونَ وَحُكْمِ التَّسْمِيعِ مِنْ غَيْرِ الْإِمَامِ
Chapter on the permissibility of the Imam raising his voice with the opening Takbir so the followers hear, and the ruling of saying "Sami' Allahu liman hamidah" by others
Hadith 2590
عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ الْحَارِثِ قَالَ: اسْتَكْأَى أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ أَوْ غَابَ فَصَلَّى بِنَا أَبُو سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيُّ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ فَجَهَرَ بِالتَّكْبِيرِ حِينَ افْتَتَحَ الصَّلَاةَ وَحِينَ رَكَعَ وَحِينَ قَالَ سَمِعَ اللَّهُ لِمَنْ حَمِدَهُ وَحِينَ رَفَعَ رَأْسَهُ مِنَ السُّجُودِ وَحِينَ سَجَدَ وَحِينَ قَامَ بَيْنَ الرَّكْعَتَيْنِ حَتَّى قَضَى صَلَاتَهُ عَلَى ذَلِكَ، فَلَمَّا صَلَّى قِيلَ لَهُ: قَدِ اخْتَلَفَ النَّاسُ عَلَى صَلَاتِكَ، فَخَرَجَ فَقَامَ عِنْدَ الْمِنْبَرِ فَقَالَ: أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ! وَاللَّهِ! مَا أُبَالِي اخْتَلَفَتْ صَلَاتُكُمْ أَوْ لَمْ تَخْتَلِفْ، هَكَذَا رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ
Saeed bin Al-Harith says: Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) became ill or was otherwise absent, so Sayyiduna Abu Saeed Khudri (may Allah be pleased with him) led us in prayer. When he began the prayer, at the time of bowing (ruku‘), after saying "Sami‘a Allahu liman hamidah," when raising his head from prostration (sajdah), when going into prostration, and when standing up after two rak‘ahs, he said "Allahu Akbar." When he completed the prayer in this manner, someone said: "People are differing with your way of prayer." (Hearing this) he came and stood by the pulpit and said: "O people! By Allah, I do not care whether your prayer is different from this or not; I saw the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) praying in this very manner."
Hadith 2591
عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ: اسْتَكْأَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَصَلَّيْنَا وَرَاءَهُ وَهُوَ قَاعِدٌ وَأَبُو بَكْرٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ يُكَبِّرُ يُسْمِعُ النَّاسَ تَكْبِيرَهُ … الحَدِيث
Sayyiduna Jabir bin Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) says: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) became ill, so we prayed behind him while he (peace and blessings be upon him) was sitting, and Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) would say the takbeer and make the people hear his takbeer.
