“The Messenger of

“I was with Ibn ‘Umar and
I lagged behind and prayed Witr. He said: ‘What kept you?’ I
said: ‘I
was praying Witr.’ He said: ‘Do you not have the best
of examples in
the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ)?’ I said: ‘Of
course.’ He said: ‘The
Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) used to pray Witr
while riding his camel.’”

Allah
(ﷺ) said to Abu Bakr: ‘When do you pray Witr?’ He said: ‘At
the beginning of the night, after ‘Isha’.’ He said: ‘And you,
O
‘Umar?’ He said: ‘At the end of the night.’ The Prophet
(ﷺ) said:
‘As for you, O Abu Bakr, you have seized the
trustworthy handhold
(i.e., you want to be on the safe side), and as
for you, O ‘Umar, you
have seized strength (i.e., you are confident
that you have the
resolve to get up and pray Witr).’”

narrated that ‘Abdullah said:
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عَامِرِ بْنِ زُرَارَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُسْهِرٍ، عَنِ الأَعْمَشِ، عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، عَنْ عَلْقَمَةَ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، قَالَ صَلَّى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ فَزَادَ أَوْ نَقَصَ - قَالَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ وَالْوَهْمُ مِنِّي - فَقِيلَ لَهُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَزِيدَ فِي الصَّلاَةِ شَىْءٌ قَالَ
" إِنَّمَا أَنَا بَشَرٌ. أَنْسَى كَمَا تَنْسَوْنَ. فَإِذَا نَسِيَ أَحَدُكُمْ فَلْيَسْجُدْ سَجْدَتَيْنِ وَهُوَ جَالِسٌ " . ثُمَّ تَحَوَّلَ النَّبِيُّ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ فَسَجَدَ سَجْدَتَيْنِ .
“The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ)
prayed, and he added or omitted something.” (One of the narrators)
Ibrahim said: “The confusion stems from me (i.e., he was not sure
which it was).” “It was said to him: ‘O Messenger of Allah! Has
something been added to the prayer?’ He said: ‘I am only human, I
forget just as you forget. If anyone forgets, let him perform two
prostrations when he is sitting (at the end).’ Then the Prophet
(ﷺ)
turned and prostrated twice.”
Chapter 129: Forgetfulness during Prayer - كتاب إقامة الصلاة والسنة فيها
‘Iyad
narrated that he asked Abu Sa’eed Al-Khudri:
حَدَّثَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ رَافِعٍ، حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ ابْنُ عُلَيَّةَ، عَنْ هِشَامٍ، حَدَّثَنِي يَحْيَى، حَدَّثَنِي عِيَاضٌ، أَنَّهُ سَأَلَ أَبَا سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيَّ فَقَالَ أَحَدُنَا يُصَلِّي فَلاَ يَدْرِي كَمْ صَلَّى . فَقَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ
" إِذَا صَلَّى أَحَدُكُمْ فَلَمْ يَدْرِ كَمْ صَلَّى، فَلْيَسْجُدْ سَجْدَتَيْنِ وَهُوَ جَالِسٌ " .
“One of us prays
and
he does not know how many (Rak’ah) he has prayed.” He said: “The
Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: ‘When anyone of you prays and does
not
know how many he has prayed, let him perform two prostrations
while he
is sitting.’”

حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَشَّارٍ، وَأَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ خَلاَّدٍ قَالاَ حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، عَنْ شُعْبَةَ، حَدَّثَنِي الْحَكَمُ، عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، عَنْ عَلْقَمَةَ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، قَالَ: صَلَّى النَّبِيُّ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ الظُّهْرَ خَمْسًا. فَقِيلَ لَهُ: أَزِيدَ فِي الصَّلاَةِ؟ قَالَ
" وَمَا ذَاكَ؟ " . فَقِيلَ لَهُ . فَثَنَى رِجْلَهُ، فَسَجَدَ سَجْدَتَيْنِ .
“(Once) the Prophet (ﷺ) prayed
Zuhr with five Rak’ah, and it was said to him: ‘Has something
been
added to the prayer?’ He said: ‘What is that?’ They told
him, and he
turned back towards the Qiblah and performed two
prostrations.”
Chapter 131: What was narrated concerning one who stands up after two Rak’ah by mistake - كتاب إقامة الصلاة والسنة فيها
It was
narrated from Ibn Buhainah:
حَدَّثَنَا عُثْمَانُ، وَأَبُو بَكْرٍ ابْنَا أَبِي شَيْبَةَ وَهِشَامُ بْنُ عَمَّارٍ قَالُوا حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ بْنُ عُيَيْنَةَ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، عَنِ الأَعْرَجِ، عَنِ ابْنِ بُحَيْنَةَ، أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ صَلَّى صَلاَةً أَظُنُّ أَنَّهَا الظُّهْرُ (العَصْرُ) فَلَمَّا كَانَ فِي الثَّانِيَةِ قَامَ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَجْلِسَ فَلَمَّا كَانَ قَبْلَ أَنْ يُسَلِّمَ سَجَدَ سَجْدَتَيْنِ .
“The Prophet (ﷺ) offered prayer,
I
think it was the ‘Asr, and in the second Rak’ah he stood up
before
he sat. Before he said the Salam, he prostrated twice.”
It was
narrated from ‘Abdur-Rahman Al-A’raj that Ibn Buhainah told
him
that the Prophet (ﷺ) stood up in the second Rak’ah of Zuhr and
forgot to sit. When he had finished his prayer, and before he said
the
Salam, he performed the two prostrations for forgetfulness (Sahw)
and
said the Salam.
Chapter 131: What was narrated concerning one who stands up after two Rak’ah by mistake - كتاب إقامة الصلاة والسنة فيها
It was
narrated that Mughirah bin Shu’bah said:
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى، حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يُوسُفَ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنْ جَابِرٍ، عَنِ الْمُغِيرَةِ بْنِ شُبَيْلٍ، عَنْ قَيْسِ بْنِ أَبِي حَازِمٍ، عَنِ الْمُغِيرَةِ بْنِ شُعْبَةَ، قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ
" إِذَا قَامَ أَحَدُكُمْ مِنَ الرَّكْعَتَيْنِ فَلَمْ يَسْتَتِمَّ قَائِمًا فَلْيَجْلِسْ فَإِذَا اسْتَتَمَّ قَائِمًا فَلاَ يَجْلِسْ وَيَسْجُدْ سَجْدَتَىِ السَّهْوِ " .
“The Messenger of
Allah
(ﷺ) said: ‘If anyone of you stands after two Rak’ah, if he has
not yet stood up fully, let him sit down again, but if he has stood
up
fully, then let him not sit down, and let him perform two
prostrations
for forgetfulness (Sahw).’”
“I heard the
Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) say: ‘If anyone of you is uncertain as to
whether he has prayed one or two Rak’ah, let him assume it is one.
If
he is uncertain as to whether he has prayed two or three, let him
assume it is two. If he is uncertain as to whether he has prayed
three
or four, let him assume it is three. Then let him complete what
is
left of his prayer, so that the doubt will be about what is more.
Then
let him prostrate twice while he is sitting, before the Taslim
(saying
the Salam).’”
“The Messenger of
Allah
(ﷺ) said: ‘If anyone of you is uncertain about his prayer, let
him put aside uncertainty and act upon that which is certain. When he
has made sure his prayer is complete, then let him prostrate twice.
Then if his prayer was complete, that (extra) Rak’ah will be
counted
as voluntary, and if his prayer was lacking, that Rak’ah
will complete
his prayer, and the two prostrations will rub the
Satan’s nose in the
dust.’”
Chapter 133: What was narrated concerning one who is uncertain about his Prayer, so he should try to do what is correct - كتاب إقامة الصلاة والسنة فيها
“The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ)
offered prayer, and I am not sure whether he did something extra or
omitted something. He asked, and we told him, so he turned to face the
Qiblah and prostrated twice, then he said the Salam. Then he turned
to face us and said: ‘If any new command has been revealed
concerning the prayer, I would certainly have told you. But I am only
human and I forget and you forget. If I forget, then remind me. And
if anyone of you is uncertain about the prayer, let him do what is
closest to what is correct, then complete the prayer, say the Salam
and prostrate twice.”
Chapter 133: What was narrated concerning one who is uncertain about his Prayer, so he should try to do what is correct - كتاب إقامة الصلاة والسنة فيها
It was
narrated that ‘Abdullah said:
حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ، عَنْ مِسْعَرٍ، عَنْ مَنْصُورٍ، عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، عَنْ عَلْقَمَةَ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ
" إِذَا شَكَّ أَحَدُكُمْ فِي الصَّلاَةِ فَلْيَتَحَرَّ الصَّوَابَ ثُمَّ يَسْجُدْ سَجْدَتَيْنِ " .
قَالَ الطَّنَافِسِيُّ هَذَا الأَصْلُ وَلاَ يَقْدِرُ أَحَدٌ يَرُدُّهُ .
“The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ)
said:
‘If anyone of you is uncertain about his prayer, let him try to
do
what is correct then let him prostrate twice.’”
Tanafisi said: "This is the basic rule, and no one is able to reject it."
Chapter 134: One who says the Salam after two or three Rak’ah by mistake - كتاب إقامة الصلاة والسنة فيها
It was
narrated from Ibn ‘Umar that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ)
forgot
and said the Taslim after two Rak’ah. A man who was called
Dhul-Yadain said to him:
‘O Messenger of Allah, has the prayer been
shortened or did you forget?’ He said: ‘It has not been shortened
and
I did not forget.’ He said: ‘But you prayed two Rak’ah.’ He
said: ‘Is what
Dhul-Yadain says true?’ They said: ‘Yes.’ So
he went forward and
performed two Rak’ah and said the Salam, then
he prostrated twice for
prostrations of forgetfulness.
“The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ)
led
us in one of the afternoon prayers, and he prayed two Rak’ah, then
he said the Salam. Then he stood up and went to a piece of wood in
the
mosque, and leaned against it. Those who were in a hurry left the
mosque, saying that the prayer had been shortened. Among the people
were Abu Bakr and ‘Umar, but they dared not say anything. Among the
people there was also a man with long hands who was called
Dhul-
Yadain. He said: ‘O Messenger of Allah, has the prayer been
shortened
or did you forget?’ He said: ‘It has not been shortened
and I did not
forget.’ He said: ‘But you prayed two Rak’ah.’ He
said: ‘Is what Dhul-
Yadain says true?’ They said: ‘Yes.’ So
he went forward and performed
two Rak’ah and said the Salam, then
he prostrated twice, and then he
said the Salam again.”
“The Messenger of Allah
(ﷺ) said the Salam after three Rak’ah for ‘Asr, then he stood
up and
went into the apartment. Khirbaq, a man with big hands, stood
up and
called out: ‘O Messenger of Allah! Has the prayer been
shortened?’ He
came out angrily, dragging his lower garment, and
asked about it, and
was told (what had happened). So he performed the
Rak’ah that he had
omitted, then he said the Salam, then he
prostrated twice and said the
Salam again.”
Chapter 135: Concerning the two prostration of forgetfulness before the Salam - كتاب إقامة الصلاة والسنة فيها
It was
narrated from Abu Hurairah that the Prophet (ﷺ) said:
حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ بْنُ وَكِيعٍ، حَدَّثَنَا يُونُسُ بْنُ بُكَيْرٍ، حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ إِسْحَاقَ، حَدَّثَنِي الزُّهْرِيُّ، عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ قَالَ
" إِنَّ الشَّيْطَانَ يَأْتِي أَحَدَكُمْ فِي صَلاَتِهِ، فَيَدْخُلُ بَيْنَهُ وَبَيْنَ نَفْسِهِ حَتَّى لاَ يَدْرِي زَادَ أَوْ نَقَصَ. فَإِذَا كَانَ ذَلِكَ، فَلْيَسْجُدْ سَجْدَتَيْنِ قَبْلَ أَنْ يُسَلِّمَ. ثُمَّ يُسَلِّمْ " .
“The
Satan
comes to any one of you while he is praying and comes between
him and
his soul, until he does not know whether he as added something
or
omitted something. If that happens, then he should prostrate twice
before the Salam, then he should say the Salam.”
