Bayhaqi 2582 — Catching the imam in bowing

قَالَ: وَحَدَّثَنَا مَالِكٌ، أَنَّهُ بَلَغَهُ أَنَّ عَبْدَ اللهِ بْنَ عُمَرَ، وَزَيْدَ بْنَ ثَابِتٍ كَانَا يَقُولَانِ: " مَنْ أَدْرَكَ الرَّكْعَةَ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَرْفَعَ الْإِمَامُ رَأْسَهُ فَقَدْ أَدْرَكَ السَّجْدَةَ ".
Imam Malik (may Allah have mercy on him) related that it had reached him that Abdullah bin Umar and Zayd bin Thabit (may Allah be pleased with them both) both used to say that whoever catches the bowing before the imam raises his head has caught the rak'ah.
