باب: المسبوق ببعض الصلاة يتم باقي صلاته ولا يسجد سجدتي السهو إذا لم يسه هو ولا الإمام
One who has missed part of the prayer completes the rest of his prayer and does not perform the two prostrations of forgetfulness if neither he nor the imam forgot

لِقَوْلِهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " مَا أَدْرَكْتُمْ فَصَلُّوا وَمَا فَاتَكُمْ فَأَتِمُّوا ".
This is because of the saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him): "Whatever (part of the prayer) you catch, pray it, and whatever you miss, complete it."
أَخْبَرَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ عَبْدَانَ، أنبأ سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ اللَّخْمِيُّ، ثنا عَمْرُو بْنُ ثَوْرٍ الْجُذَامِيُّ، وَابْنُ أَبِي مَرْيَمَ، قَالَا: ثنا الْفِرْيَابِيُّ، ثنا سُفْيَانُ، عَنْ يُونُسَ بْنِ عُبَيْدٍ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ سِيرِينَ، عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ وَهْبٍ، عَنِ الْمُغِيرَةِ بْنِ شُعْبَةَ قَالَ: " انْتَهَيْتُ أَنَا وَرَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِلَى عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ عَوْفٍ وَقَدْ صَلَّى بِالنَّاسِ رَكْعَةً فَذَهَبَ يَسْتَأْخِرُ، فَأَشَارَ إِلَيْهِ أَنِ اثْبُتْ فَصَلَّيْنَا مَا أَدْرَكْنَا وَقَضَيْنَا مَا سُبِقْنَا بِهِ ".
Al-Mughirah bin Shu'bah (may Allah be pleased with him) says: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) and I arrived when Abd al-Rahman bin Awf (may Allah be pleased with him) had already led the people in one rak'ah. He (may Allah be pleased with him) began to step back, but the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) gestured to him to remain in his place. We prayed the part of the prayer (in congregation) that we caught, and afterwards completed what we had missed.
وَأَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَلِيٍّ الرُّوذْبَارِيُّ، أنبأ أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ دَاسَةَ، ثنا أَبُو دَاوُدَ، ثنا هُدْبَةُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ، ثنا هَمَّامٌ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ، عَنِ الْحَسَنِ، وَعَنْ زُرَارَةَ بْنِ أَوَفَى، أَنَّ الْمُغِيرَةَ بْنَ شُعْبَةَ قَالَ: تَخَلَّفَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَذَكَرَ قِصَّةً قَالَ: فَأَتَيْنَا النَّاسَ وَعَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ عَوْفٍ يُصَلِّي بِهُمُ الصُّبْحَ، فَلَمَّا رَأَى النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَرَادَ أَنْ يَتَأَخَّرَ فَأَوْمَأَ إِلَيْهِ أَنْ يَمْضِيَ قَالَ: فَصَلَّيْتُ أَنَا وَالنَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ خَلْفَهُ رَكْعَةً، فَلَمَّا سَلَّمَ قَامَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَصَلَّى الرَّكْعَةَ الَّتِي سُبِقَ بِهَا وَلَمْ يَزِدْ عَلَيْهَا شَيْئًا " قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُدَ: أَبُو سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيُّ وَابْنُ عُمَرَ وَابْنُ الزُّبَيْرِ يَقُولُونَ: " مَنْ أَدْرَكَ الْفَرْضَ مِنَ الصَّلَاةِ عَلَيْهِ سَجْدَتَا السَّهْوِ " قَالَ الشَّيْخُ: وَحَدِيثُ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَوْلَى أَنْ يُتَّبَعَ.
(a) Sayyiduna al-Mughirah bin Shu'bah (may Allah be pleased with him) says that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) was delayed for the prayer. Then he mentioned the whole story. He says: We (the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and I) came to the people while Sayyiduna Abd al-Rahman bin Awf (may Allah be pleased with him) was leading them in the morning prayer. When he saw the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), he wanted to step back, but he (peace and blessings be upon him) gestured to him: "Continue your prayer." Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and I prayed one rak'ah behind Sayyiduna Abd al-Rahman bin Awf (may Allah be pleased with him). When he gave the salam, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) stood up and prayed the rak'ah that he had missed, and did not add anything more to it (such as the prostration of forgetfulness).
(b) Imam Abu Dawud (may Allah have mercy on him) says: Sayyiduna Abu Sa'id al-Khudri, Sayyiduna Ibn Umar and Sayyiduna Ibn al-Zubayr (may Allah be pleased with them) say that whoever catches one rak'ah of the prayer must perform the prostration of forgetfulness.
(c) Imam al-Bayhaqi (may Allah have mercy on him) says that the hadith of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) is more worthy of being followed.
