Musnad Abi Ya'la 4496 — during the illness of the Messenger of Allah
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الرَّبِيعِ الزَّهْرَانِيُّ ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ ، حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامٌ ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ ، قَالَتْ : دَخَلَ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - أَصْحَابُهُ فِي مَرَضِهِ وَهُوَ يُصَلِّي قَاعِدًا ، فَقَامُوا يُصَلُّونَ خَلْفَهُ ، فَأَوْمَأَ إِلَيْهِمْ بِيَدِهِ أَنِ اجْلِسُوا ، فَجَلَسُوا ، فَلَمَّا قَضَى النَّبِيُّ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - قَالَ : إِنَّمَا الْإِمَامُ لِيُؤْتَمَّ بِهِ ، فَإِذَا رَكَعَ فَارْكَعُوا ، وَإِذَا سَجَدَ فَاسْجُدُوا ، وَإِنْ صَلَّى قَائِمًا فَصَلُّوا قِيَامًا ، وَإِنْ صَلَّى قَاعِدًا فَصَلُّوا قُعُودًا .
It is narrated from Sayyidah Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her) that during the illness of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), his Companions (may Allah be pleased with them) came to him while he (peace and blessings be upon him) was offering the prayer sitting, and they began to pray behind him standing. He (peace and blessings be upon him) gestured to them with his hand: "Sit down," so they sat. Then when the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) finished the prayer, he said: "The imam is appointed only to be followed. So when he bows, you bow too; and when he prostrates, you prostrate too; if he prays standing, you also pray standing, and if he prays sitting, then all of you pray sitting."
