It is narrated from Hazrat Bara’ (may Allah be pleased with him) that I had the honor of offering prayer with the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). I found his standing (qiyam), the pause after bowing (ruku’), prostration (sajdah), the sitting between the two prostrations, the final sitting (qa’dah akheerah), and the interval between turning for salam and returning to be almost equal in duration.
