“The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) set out to bring about reconciliation among Banu ‘Amr bin ‘Awf. The time for prayer came, and the Mu’adhdhin went to Abu Bakr to tell him to gather the people and lead them in prayer. Then the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) came and passed though the rows until he stood in the first row. The people started clapping to let Abu Bakr know that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) had come. Abu Bakr never used to turn around when he prayed, but when they clapped consistently he realized something must have happened while they were praying. So he turned around and saw the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ). The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) gestured to him to stay where he was. Abu Bakr raised his hands and praised and thanked Allah (SWT) for what the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) had said. Then, he moved backwards, and the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) went forward and prayed. When he finished, he said to Abu Bakr: ‘What stopped you from continuing to pray when I gestured to you?’ Abu Bakr, may Allah (SWT) be pleased with him, said: ‘It was not appropriate for the son of Abu Quhafah to lead the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) in prayer.’ Then he said to the people: ‘Why did you clap?’ Clapping is for women.’ Then he said: ‘If you notice something when you are praying, say “SubhanAllah.'”

## Hadith #1220

**Book:** The Book of Forgetfulness (In Prayer) | **Narrator(s):** al-Zubair bin Ady al-Hmdany الزبير بن عدي الهمداني اليامي, ibn Mas'ud, Muhammad bin 'Abdullah bin 'Ammar محمد بن عبد الله بن عمار, Sufyan bin 'Uyaynah سفيان بن عيينة

“I said: ‘O Messenger of Allah (ﷺ), we were recently in a state of ignorance, then Allah (SWT) brought Islam. Some men among us follow omens.’ He said: ‘That is something that they find in their own hearts; it should not deter them from going ahead.’ I said: ‘And some men among us go to fortune tellers.’ He said: ‘Do not go to them.’ He said: ‘Some men among us draw lines.’ He said: ‘One of the Prophets used to draw lines. So whoever is in accord with his drawing of lines, then so it is.'” He said: “While I was praying with the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ), a man sneezed and I said: ‘Yarhamuk-Allah (May Allah have mercy on you).’ The people glared at me and I said: ‘May my mother be bereft of me, why are you looking at me?’ The people struck their hands against their thighs, and when I saw that they were telling me to be quiet, I fell silent. When the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) finished, he called me. May my father and mother be ransomed for him, he neither did hit me nor rebuke me nor revile me. I have never seen a better teacher than him, before or after. He said: ‘This prayer of ours is not the place for ordinary human speech, rather it is glorification and magnification of Allah (SWT), and reciting Qur’an.’ Then I went out to a flock of sheep of mine that was tended by a slave woman of mine beside Uhud and Al-Jawwaniyyah, and I found that the wolf had taken one of the sheep. I am a man from the sons of Adam and I get upset as they get upset. So I slapped her. Then I came to the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) and told him what happened. He regarded that as a serious action on my part. I said: ‘O Messenger of Allah (ﷺ), should I set her free?’ He said: ‘Call her.’ The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said to her: ‘Where is Allah (SWT), the Mighty and Sublime?’ She said: ‘Above the heavens.’ He said: ‘And who am I?’ She said: ‘The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ).’ He said: ‘She is a believer, set her free.'”

“Abdullah bin Az-Zubair used to recite the tahlil following every prayer, saying: ‘La Ilaha Illallah wahdahu la sharika lah, lahul-mulk wa lahul-hamd wa huwa ‘ala kulli shay’in qadir, la hawla wala quwwata illa billahil-‘azim; la ilaha ill-Allahu wa la nabbed illa iyyah, ahlan-ni’mati wal-fadli wath-thana’il-has an; la ilaha ill-Allah, mukhlisina lahud-dina wa law karihal-kafirun (There is none worthy of worship except Allah (SWT) alone, with no partner or associate. His is the Dominion, to Him be all praise, and He is able to do all things; there is no power and no strength except with Allah (SWT) the Almighty. There is none worthy of worship except Allah (SWT), and we worship none but Him, the source of blessing and kindness and the One Who is deserving of all good praise. There is none worthy of worship except Allah (SWT), and we are sincere in faith and devotion to Him even though the disbelievers detest it. ) Then Ibn Az-Zubair said: ‘The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) used to recite the tahlil in this manner following every prayer.'”
