Hadith 873

نَا الرَّبِيعُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ الْمُرَادِيُّ ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعَيْبٌ ، نَا اللَّيْثُ ، عَنْ أَبِي الزُّبَيْرِ ، عَنْ جَابِرٍ ، قَالَ : " اشْتَكَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَصَلَّيْنَا وَرَاءَهُ ، وَهُوَ قَاعِدٌ ، فَالْتَفَتَ إِلَيْنَا فَرَآنَا قِيَامًا فَأَشَارَ إِلَيْنَا ، فَقَعَدْنَا "
Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) became ill, and we performed prayer behind him while he was leading the prayer sitting. When he turned towards us, he saw us standing, so he gestured to us (to sit), and thus we sat down.
