Chapter: Making the standing and recitation lighter
Hadith 982
أَخْبَرَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ ، قال : حَدَّثَنَا الْعَطَّافُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ ، عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ أَسْلَمَ ، قال : دَخَلْنَا عَلَى أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ ، فَقَالَ : " صَلَّيْتُمْ " قُلْنَا : " نَعَمْ " قَالَ : " يَا جَارِيَةُ هَلُمِّي لِي وَضُوءًا مَا صَلَّيْتُ وَرَاءَ إِمَامٍ أَشْبَهَ صَلَاةً بِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مِنْ إِمَامِكُمْ هَذَا " قَالَ زَيْدٌ : وَكَانَ عُمَرُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ يُتِمُّ الرُّكُوعَ وَالسُّجُودَ وَيُخَفِّفُ الْقِيَامَ وَالْقُعُودَ .
´It was narrated that Zaid bin Aslam said:` "We entered upon Anas bin Malik and he said: 'Have you prayed?' We said: 'Yes.' He asid: 'O slave girl, bring me water for Wudhu! I have never prayed behind any Imam whose prayer more closely resembles the prayer of the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) than this Imam of yours.'" Zaid said: "Umar bin Abdul Aziz used to complete the bowing and prostration (without rushing) and lighten the standing and sitting."
