- " إذا وجدتم الإمام ساجدا فاسجدوا أو راكعا فاركعوا أو قائما فقوموا ولا تعدوا بالسجود إذا لم تدركوا الركعة ".
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Mughaffal Muzani (may Allah be pleased with him), he states that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "When you find the Imam in the state of prostration, then perform prostration with him; if you find him in the state of bowing, then bow with him; and if you find him standing, then begin standing with him. But do not count the prostrations unless you have caught the bowing."
