أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو طَاهِرٍ الْفَقِيهُ، أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو حَامِدِ بْنُ بِلَالٍ، ثنا أَبُو الْأَزْهَرِ قَالَ: ثنا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ نُمَيْرٍ، ثنا هِشَامُ بْنُ عُرْوَةَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهَا أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ صَلَّى فِي مَرَضِهِ وَهُوَ جَالِسٌ وَخَلْفَهُ قِيَامٌ، فَأَشَارَ إِلَيْهِمْ أَنِ اجْلِسُوا، فَلَمَّا قَضَى صَلَاتَهُ قَالَ: " إِنَّمَا جُعِلَ الْإِمَامُ لِيُؤْتَمَّ بِهِ، فَإِذَا رَكَعَ فَارْكَعُوا، وَإِذَا رَفَعَ فَارْفَعُوا، وَإِذَا صَلَّى جَالِسًا فَصَلُّوا جُلُوسًا " رَوَاهُ مُسْلِمٌ فِي الصَّحِيحِ.
The Mother of the Believers Sayyidah Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her) narrates that during the days of his illness the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) prayed sitting, and the Companions prayed behind him standing, so he gestured to them to sit. When he had finished the prayer, he said: "The imam is appointed only to be followed. When he bows, you bow; when he raises his head from bowing, you raise your heads; and when he leads the prayer sitting, you pray sitting."
