Some examples include the Quran containing scientific truths revealed 1400 years ago, the Prophet's ascension to heaven accompanied by Angel Gabriel, splitting the moon in two, prophesying a Roman victory, increasing food to feed 70-80 people, remaining unseen when approached by an enemy, and water flowing from his fingers to quench the thirst of 1500 companions. The miracles are said to demonstrate the Prophet's divine status and the veracity of his message according to Islamic texts and traditions.
The document provides information about important sites in Madinah, Saudi Arabia related to Islam. It discusses the merits of Madinah as declared by the Prophet Muhammad and highlights important mosques and sites to visit including Masjid Quba, Al-Masjid An-Nabawi, and the Prophet's grave. Etiquette for visiting these sites respectfully is outlined.
Visiting graves is recommended in Islam to remind Muslims of death and the afterlife. During the early days of Islam, visiting graves was prohibited but later permitted with the warning not to say anything false. It is permissible for women to visit graves. Prayers can be offered for all buried in the graveyard but not for non-Muslims who died in disbelief. Certain practices like reciting Quran, facing graves during prayer, or traveling long distances specifically to visit graves are forbidden in Islam.
The document provides guidance from Islam on proper burial practices and visiting gravesites based on hadiths from the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him). Key points include: graves should not have permanent structures or be elevated; the maximum allowed height is one span above the surrounding area; when visiting gravesites, Muslims should recite a dua for the deceased but not perform other acts of worship like praying or reading Quran; and building mosques over or putting graves in mosques is forbidden. The Prophet also prohibited plastering or sitting on graves as well as other innovations at gravesites that have become common today.
1) The document discusses rules for people performing Hajj or Umrah, including what clothing can be worn while in a state of Ihram (having assumed the intention to perform pilgrimage rites). It is narrated that the Prophet said not to wear shirts, trousers, turbans or perfumed items while in Ihram.
2) It also discusses exceptions like being allowed to wear khuffs (leather socks) or trousers if other footwear is unavailable. The Prophet fixed locations like Dhul-Hulaifa as places from which to assume the state of Ihram depending on where people were coming from.
3) Hunting was forbidden while in Ih
The document discusses traditions and practices related to Eid prayers according to Islamic hadith sources. It states that the Prophet Muhammad would eat dates before performing Eid al-Fitr prayers. It also notes that he would deliver a sermon or khutba after completing the Eid prayers, which consisted of two rakats or units of prayer only, with no other prayers before or after. The hadiths also mention that women, including virgins and menstruating women, would be present or participating in the Eid prayers in some capacity.
Lucid Dreaming: Understanding the Risks and Benefits
The ability to control one's dreams or for the dreamer to be aware that he or she is dreaming. This process, called lucid dreaming, has some potential risks as well as many fascinating benefits. However, many people are hesitant to try it initially for fear of the potential dangers. This article aims to clarify these concerns by exploring both the risks and benefits of lucid dreaming.
The Benefits of Lucid Dreaming
Lucid dreaming allows a person to take control of their dream world, helping them overcome their fears and eliminate nightmares. This technique is particularly useful for mental health. By taking control of their dreams, individuals can face challenging scenarios in a controlled environment, which can help reduce anxiety and increase self-confidence.
Addressing Common Concerns
Physical Harm in Dreams Lucid dreaming is fundamentally safe. In a lucid dream, everything is a creation of your mind. Therefore, nothing in the dream can physically harm you. Despite the vividness and realness of the dream experience, it remains entirely within your mental landscape, posing no physical danger.
Mental Health Risks Concerns about developing PTSD or other mental illnesses from lucid dreaming are unfounded. As soon as you wake up, it's clear that the events experienced in the dream were not real. On the contrary, lucid dreaming is often seen as a therapeutic tool for conditions like PTSD, as it allows individuals to reframe and manage their thoughts.
Potential Risks of Lucid Dreaming
While generally safe, lucid dreaming does come with a few risks as well:
Mixing Dream Memories with Reality Long-term lucid dreamers might occasionally confuse dream memories with real ones, creating false memories. This issue is rare and preventable by maintaining a dream journal and avoiding lucid dreaming about real-life people or places too frequently.
Escapism Using lucid dreaming to escape reality can be problematic if it interferes with your daily life. While it is sometimes beneficial to escape and relieve the stress of reality, relying on lucid dreaming for happiness can hinder personal growth and productivity.
Feeling Tired After Lucid Dreaming Some people report feeling tired after lucid dreaming. This tiredness is not due to the dreams themselves but often results from not getting enough sleep or using techniques that disrupt sleep patterns. Taking breaks and ensuring adequate sleep can prevent this.
Mental Exhaustion Lucid dreaming can be mentally taxing if practiced excessively without breaks. It’s important to balance lucid dreaming with regular sleep to avoid mental fatigue.
Lucid dreaming is safe and beneficial if done with caution. It has many benefits, such as overcoming fear and improving mental health, and minimal risks. There are many resources and tutorials available for those interested in trying it.

Astronism, Cosmism and Cosmodeism: the space religions espousing the doctrine...Cometan
This lecture created by Brandon Taylorian (aka Cometan) specially for the CESNUR Conference held Bordeaux in June 2024 provides a brief introduction to the legacy of religious and philosophical thought that Astronism emerges from, namely the discourse on transcension started assuredly by the Cosmists in Russia in the mid-to-late nineteenth century and then carried on and developed by Mordecai Nessyahu in Cosmodeism in the twentieth century. Cometan also then provides some detail on his story in founding Astronism in the early twenty-first century from 2013 along with details on the central Astronist doctrine of transcension. Finally, the lecture concludes with some contributions made by space religions and space philosophy and their influences on various cultural facets in art, literature and film.

Introduction
Mantra Yoga is an exact science. "Mananat trayate iti mantrah- by the Manana (constant thinking or recollection) of which one is protected or is released from the round of births and deaths, is Mantra." That is called Mantra by the meditation (Manana) on which the Jiva or the individual soul attains freedom from sin, enjoyment in heaven and final liberation, and by the aid of which it attains in full the fourfold fruit (Chaturvarga), i.e., Dharma, Artha, Kama and Moksha. A Mantra is so called because it is achieved by the mental process.
The Book of Revelation, filled with symbolic and apocalyptic imagery, presents one of its most striking visions in Revelation 9:3-12—the locust army. Understanding the significance of this locust army provides insight into the broader themes of divine judgment, protection, and the ultimate triumph of God’s will as depicted in Revelation.
Lição 12: João 15 a 17 – O Espírito Santo e a Oração Sacerdotal | 2° Trimestr...OmarBarrezueta1
Esta lição é uma oportunidade para discutirmos um assunto multo mal interpretado no contexto cristão, que é o fato de algumas pessoas pensarem que o conhecer Jesus é ter a nossa vida mudada em todas as áreas, como se Deus tivesse o dever de transportar-nos deste mundo para um outro mundo onde muitas coisas maravilhosas que desejamos seriam reais. No entanto, a nossa fé não nos tira do mundo após nos convertermos; ao invés disso, permanecemos vivendo sob as mesmas circunstâncias. O propósito de Deus não é nos tirar do mundo, mas nos livrar das ações do maligno (Jo 17.15), Sendo assim, a vida eterna não significa estar fora da realidade deste mundo, mas conhecer o único Deus verdadeiro (Jo 17.3).

Book 22: Actions while Praying
Volume 2, Book 22, Number 289:
Narrated Kuraib Maula Ibn Abbas:
'Abdullah bin Abbas said that he had passed a night in the house of Maimuna the mother of the
faithful believers , who was his aunt. He said, "I slept across the bed, and Allah's Apostle along with
his wife slept lengthwise. Allah's Apostle slept till mid-night or slightly before or after it. Then Allah's
Apostle woke up, sat, and removed the traces of sleep by rubbing his hands over his face. Then he re-
cited the last ten verses of Surat-Al Imran (2). Then he went towards a hanging leather water-con-
tainer and performed a perfect ablution and then stood up for prayer." 'Abdullah bin Abbas added, "I
got up and did the same as Allah's Apostle had done and then went and stood by his side. Allah's
Apostle then put his right hand over my head and caught my right ear and twisted it. He offered two
Rakat, then two Rakat, then two Rakat, then two Rakat, then two Rakat, then two Rakat and then
offered one Raka Witr. Then he lay down till the Muadh-dhin came and then he prayed two light
Rakat and went out and offered the early morning (Fajr) prayer."
Volume 2, Book 22, Number 290:
Narrated 'Abdullah:
We used to greet the Prophet while he was praying and he used to answer our greetings. When
we returned from AnNajashi (the ruler of Ethiopia), we greeted him, but he did not answer us (dur-
ing the prayer) and (after finishing the prayer) he said, "In the prayer one is occupied (with a more
serious matter)."
Volume 2, Book 22, Number 291:
Narrated 'Abdullah
the same as No. 290. from the Prophet
Volume 2, Book 22, Number 292:
Narrated Zaid bin Arqam:
In the life-time of the Prophet we used to speak while praying, and one of us would tell his needs
to his companions, till the verse, 'Guard strictly your prayers (2.238) was revealed. After that we
were ordered to remain silent while praying.

2. SAHIH BUKHARI VOLUME 2 > BOOK 22: ACTIONS WHILE PRAYING
Volume 2, Book 22, Number 293:
Narrated Sahl bin Sad:
The Prophet went out to affect a reconciliation between the tribes of Bani 'Amr bin 'Auf and the
time of the prayer became due; Bilal went to Abu Bakr and said, "The Prophet is detained. Will you
lead the people in the prayer?" Abu Bakr replied, "Yes, if you wish." So Bilal pronounced the Iqama
and Abu Bakr led the prayer. In the meantime the Prophet came crossing the rows (of the praying
people) till he stood in the first row and the people started clapping. Abu Bakr never looked hither
and thither during the prayer but when the people clapped too much, he looked back and saw the
Prophet in the (first) row. The Prophet waved him to remain at his place, but Abu Bakr raised both
his hands and sent praises to Allah and then retreated and the Prophet went forward and led the
prayer. (See Hadith No. 295 & 296)
Volume 2, Book 22, Number 294:
Narrated 'Abdullah bin Masud:
We used to say the greeting, name and greet each other in the prayer. Allah's Apostle heard it and
said:--"Say, 'At-tahiyyatu lil-lahi was-salawatu wat-taiyibatu . Assalamu 'Alaika aiyuha-n-Nabiyu
wa-rahmatu-l-lahi wa-barakatuhu. _ Assalamu alaina wa-'ala 'ibadi-l-lahi as-salihin.. Ashhadu an
la ilaha illa-l-lah wa ashhadu anna Muhammadan 'abdu hu wa Rasuluh. (All the compliments are
for Allah and all the prayers and all the good things (are for Allah). Peace be on you, O Prophet, and
Allah's mercy and blessings (are on you). And peace be on us and on the good (pious) worshipers of
Allah. I testify that none has the right to be worshipped but Allah and that Muhammad is His slave
and Apostle.) So, when you have said this, then you have surely sent the greetings to every good (pi-
ous) worship per of Allah, whether he be in the Heaven or on the Earth . "
Volume 2, Book 22, Number 295:
Narrated Abu Huraira:
The Prophet said, "The saying 'Sub Han Allah' is for men and clapping is for women." (If something
happens in the prayer, the men can invite the attention of the Imam by saying "Sub Han Allah". And
women, by clapping their hands).
Volume 2, Book 22, Number 296:
Narrated Sahl bin Sad,
The Prophet said, "The saying 'Sub Han Allah' is for men and clapping is for women.
Volume 2 - 276 / 1700
3. SAHIH BUKHARI VOLUME 2 > BOOK 22: ACTIONS WHILE PRAYING
Volume 2, Book 22, Number 297:
Narrated Anas bin Malik:
While Abu Bakr was leading the people in the morning prayer on a Monday, the Prophet came to-
wards them suddenly having lifted the curtain of 'Aisha's house, and looked at them as they were
standing in rows and smiled. Abu Bakr tried to come back thinking that Allah's Apostle wanted to
come out for the prayer. The attention of the Muslims was diverted from the prayer because they
were delighted to see the Prophet. The Prophet waved his hand to them to complete their prayer,
then he went back into the room and let down the curtain. The Prophet expired on that very day.
Volume 2, Book 22, Number 297m:
Narrated Abu Huraira:
Allah's Apostle said, "A woman called her son while he was in his hermitage and said, 'O Juraij' He
said, 'O Allah, my mother (is calling me) and (I am offering) my prayer (what shall I do)?' She again
said, 'O Juraij!' He said again, 'O Allah ! My mother (is calling me) and (I am offering) my prayer
(what shall I do)?' She again said, 'O Juraij' He again said, 'O Allah! My mother (is calling me) and (I
am offering) my prayer. (What shall I do?)' She said, 'O Allah! Do not let Juraij die till he sees the
faces of prostitutes.' A shepherdess used to come by his hermitage for grazing her sheep and she gave
birth to a child. She was asked whose child that was, and she replied that it was from Juraij and that
he had come out from his hermitage. Juraij said, 'Where is that woman who claims that her child is
from me?' (When she was brought to him along with the child), Juraij asked the child, 'O Babus, who
is your father?' The child replied, 'The shepherd.' " (See Hadith No 662. Vol 3).
Volume 2, Book 22, Number 298:
Narrated Mu'aiqib:
The Prophet talked about a man leveling the earth on prostrating, and said, "If you have to do so,
then do it once."
Volume 2, Book 22, Number 299:
Narrated Anas bin Malik:
We used to pray with the Prophet in scorching heat, and if someone of us could not put his face on
the earth (because of the heat) then he would spread his clothes and prostrate over them.
Volume 2, Book 22, Number 300:
Narrated Aisha:
Volume 2 - 277 / 1700
4. SAHIH BUKHARI VOLUME 2 > BOOK 22: ACTIONS WHILE PRAYING
I used to stretch my legs towards the Qibla of the Prophet while he was praying; whenever he
prostrated he touched me, and I would withdraw my legs, and whenever he stood up, I would re-
stretch my legs.
Volume 2, Book 22, Number 301:
Narrated Abu Huraira:
The Prophet once offered the prayer and said, "Satan came in front of me and tried to interrupt my
prayer, but Allah gave me an upper hand on him and I choked him. No doubt, I thought of tying him
to one of the pillars of the mosque till you get up in the morning and see him. Then I remembered
the statement of Prophet Solomon, 'My Lord ! Bestow on me a kingdom such as shall not belong to
any other after me.' Then Allah made him (Satan) return with his head down (humiliated)."
Volume 2, Book 22, Number 302:
Narrated Al-Azraq bin Qais:
We were at Al-Ahwaz fighting the AlHaruriya (tribe). While I was at the bank of a river a man
was praying and the reins of his animal were in his hands and the animal was struggling and he was
following the animal. (Shu'ba, a sub-narrator, said that man was Abu Barza al-Aslaml). A man from
the Khawarij said, "O Allah! Be harsh to this sheik." And when the sheik (Abu Barza) finished his
prayer, he said, "I heard your remark. No doubt, I participated with Allah's Apostle in six or seven or
eight holy battles and saw his leniency, and no doubt, I would rather retain my animal than let it re-
turn to its stable, as it would cause me much trouble. "
Volume 2, Book 22, Number 303:
Narrated 'Aisha:
Once the sun eclipsed and Allah's Apostle stood up for the prayer and recited a very long Sura and
when bowed for a long while and then raised his head and started reciting another Sura. Then he
bowed, and after finishing, he prostrated and did the same in the second Raka and then said, "These
(lunar and solar eclipses) are two of the signs of Allah and if you see them, pray till the eclipse is
over. No doubt, while standing at this place I saw everything promised to me by Allah and I saw
(Paradise) and I wanted to pluck a bunch (of grapes) therefrom, at the time when you saw me step-
ping forward. No doubt, I saw Hell with its different parts destroying each other when you saw me
retreating and in it I saw 'Amr bin Luhai who started the tradition of freeing animals (set them free)
in the name of idols."
Volume 2 - 278 / 1700
5. SAHIH BUKHARI VOLUME 2 > BOOK 22: ACTIONS WHILE PRAYING
Volume 2, Book 22, Number 304:
Narrated Ibn'Umar:
The Prophet saw some sputum on the wall facing the Qibla of the mosque and became furious
with the people of the mosque and said, "During the prayer, Allah is in front of everyone of you and
so he should not spit (or said, 'He should not expectorate')." Then he got down and scratched the spu-
tum with his hand. Ibn 'Umar said (after narrating), "If anyone of you has to spit during the prayer,
he should spit to his left."
Volume 2, Book 22, Number 305:
Narrated Anas:
The Prophet said, "Whenever anyone of you is in prayer, he is speaking in private to his Lord and
so he should neither spit in front of him nor on his right side but to his left side under his left foot."
Volume 2, Book 22, Number 306:
Narrated Sahl bin Sad:
The people used to offer the prayer with the Prophet with their waist-sheets tied round their necks
because of the shortness of the sheets and the women were ordered not to lift their heads till the men
had sat straight.
Volume 2, Book 22, Number 307:
Narrated'Abdullah:
I used to greet the Prophet while he was in prayer and he would return my greeting, but when we
returned (from Ethiopia) I greeted the Prophet (while he was praying) but he did not return the
greeting, and (after finishing the prayer) he said, "In the prayer one is occupied (with a more serious
matter)."
Volume 2, Book 22, Number 308:
Narrated Jabir bin 'Abdullah:
Allah's Apostle sent me for some job and when I had finished it I returned and came to the Prophet
and greeted him but he did not return my greeting. So I felt so sorry that only Allah knows it and I
said to myself,, 'Perhaps Allah's Apostle is angry because I did not come quickly, then again I greeted
him but he did not reply. I felt even more sorry than I did the first time. Again I greeted him and he
returned the greeting and said, "The thing which prevented me from returning the greeting was that
I was praying." And at that time he was on his Rahila and his face was not towards the Qibla.
Volume 2 - 279 / 1700
6. SAHIH BUKHARI VOLUME 2 > BOOK 22: ACTIONS WHILE PRAYING
Volume 2, Book 22, Number 309:
Narrated Sahl bin Sad:
The news about the differences amongst the people of Bani 'Amr bin 'Auf at Quba reached Allah's
Apostle and so he went to them along with some of his companions to affect a reconciliation. Allah's
Apostle was delayed there and the time for the prayer became due. Bilal came to Abu Bakr! and said,
"O Abu Bakr! Allah's Apostle is detained (there) and the time for the prayer is due. Will you lead the
people in prayer?" Abu Bakr replied, "Yes, if you wish." So Bilal pronounced the Iqama and Abu Bakr
went forward and the people said Takbir. In the meantime, Allah's Apostle came piercing through
the rows till he stood in the (first) row and the people started clapping. Abu Bakr, would never look
hither and thither during the prayer but when the people clapped much he looked back and saw Al-
lah's Apostle. The Prophet beckoned him to carry on. Abu Bakr raised both his hands, praised Allah
and retreated till he stood in the row and Allah's Apostle went forward and led the people in the
prayer. When he had finished the prayer, he addressed the people and said, "O people! Why did you
start clapping when something happened to you in the prayer? Clapping is for women. Whenever
one is confronted with something unusual in the prayer one should say, 'Sub Han Allah'." Then the
Prophet looked towards Abu Bakr and asked, "What prevented you from leading the prayer when I
beckoned you to carry on?" Abu Bakr replied, "It does not befit the son of Al Quhafa to lead the pray-
er in the presence of Allah's Apostle
Volume 2, Book 22, Number 310:

I offered the 'Asr prayer with the Prophet and after finishing the prayer with Taslim he got up
quickly and went to some of his wives and then came out. He noticed the signs of astonishment on
the faces of the people caused by his speed. He then said, "I remembered while I was in my prayer
that a piece of gold was Lying in my house and I disliked that it should remain with us throughout
the night, and so I have ordered it to be distributed."

Narrated Abu Huraira,
Allah's Apostle said, "When the Adhan for the prayer is pronounced, then Satan takes to his heels
passing wind so that he may not hear the Adhan and when the Muadh-dhin finishes, he comes back;
and when the Iqama is pronounced he again takes to his heels and when it is finished, he again
comes back and continues reminding the praying person of things that he used not to remember
when not in prayer till he forgets how much he has prayed." Abu Salama bin 'Abdur-Rahman said, "If
anyone of you has such a thing (forgetting the number of Rakat he has prayed) he should perform
two prostrations of Sahu (i.e. forgetfulness) while sitting." Abu Salama narrates this from Abu
Huraira.
Volume 2, Book 22, Number 314:
Narrated Abu Huraira:
People say that I narrate too many narrations of the Prophet; once I met a man (during the life-
time of the Prophet) and asked him, "Which Sura did Allah's Apostle s recite yesterday in the 'Isha'
prayer?" He said, "I do not know." I said, "Did you not attend the prayer?" He said, "Yes, (I did)." I said,
"I know. He recited such and such Sura."

and performed two prostrations while sitting and then finished the prayer with Taslim.

Once Allah's Apostle offered five Rakat in the Zuhr prayer, and somebody asked him whether

Narrated Abu Huraira:
The Prophet led us in the 'Asr or the Zuhr prayer and finished it with Taslim. Dhul-Yadain said to
him, "O Allah's Apostle! Has the prayer been reduced?" The Prophet asked his companions in the af-
firmative. So Allah's Apostle I offered two more Rakat and then performed two prostrations (of Sahu).
Sad said, "I saw that 'Ursa bin Az-Zubair had offered two Rakat in the Maghrib prayer and finished it
with Taslim. He then talked (and when he was informed about it) he completed the rest of his prayer
and performed two prostrations, and said, 'The Prophet prayed like this.' "

truth?" The people replied in the affirmative. Then Allah's Apostle stood up and offered the remain-
ing two Rakat and performed Taslim, and then said Takbir and performed two prostrations like his
usual prostrations, or a bit longer, and then got up.

Narrated Abu Huraira:
The Prophet offered one of the evening prayers (the sub-narrator Muhammad said, "I think that it
was most probably the 'Asr prayer") and he finished it after offering two Rakat only. He then stood
near a price of wood in front of the Mosque and put his hand over it. Abu Bakr and 'Umar were
amongst those who were present, but they dared not talk to him about that (because of excessive re-
spect for him), and those who were in a hurry went out. They said, "Has the prayer been reduced?" A
man who was called DhulYadain by the Prophet said (to the Prophet), "Has the prayer been reduced
or have you forgotten?" He said, "Neither have I forgotten, nor has the prayer been reduced." He said,

when he finished the prayer he performed two prostrations and said Takbir on each prostration
while sitting, before ending (the prayer) with Taslim; and the people too performed the two prostra-
tions with him instead of the sitting he forgot.

Allah's Apostle said, "When the call for prayer is made, Satan takes to his heels passing wind so
that he may not hear the Adhan and when the call is finished he comes back, and when the Iqama is
pronounced, Satan again takes to his heels, and when the Iqama is finished he comes back again and
tries to interfere with the person and his thoughts and say, "Remember this and that (which he has
not thought of before the prayer)", till the praying person forgets how much he has prayed. If anyone
of you does not remember whether he has offered three or four Rakat then he should perform two
prostrations of Sahu while sitting.

I was sent to Aisha by Ibn Abbas, Al-Miswar bin Makhrama and 'Abdur-Rahman bin Azhar . They
told me to greet her on their behalf and to ask her about the offering of the two Rakat after the 'Asr
prayer and to say to her, "We were informed that you offer those two Rakat and we were told that
the Prophet had forbidden offering them." Ibn Abbas said, "I along with 'Umar bin Al-Khattab used to

10. SAHIH BUKHARI VOLUME 2 > BOOK 22: ACTIONS WHILE PRAYING
beat the people whenever they offered them." I went to Aisha and told her that message. 'Aisha said,
"Go and ask Um Salama about them." So I returned and informed them about her statement. They
then told me to go to Um Salama with the same question with which t sent me to 'Aisha. Um Salama
replied, "I heard the Prophet forbidding them. Later I saw him offering them immediately after he
prayed the 'Asr prayer. He then entered my house at a time when some of the Ansari women from
the tribe of Bani Haram were sitting with me, so I sent my slave girl to him having said to her, 'Stand
beside him and tell him that Um Salama says to you, "O Allah's Apostle! I have heard you forbidding
the offering of these (two Rakat after the 'Asr prayer) but I have seen you offering them." If he waves
his hand then wait for him.' The slave girl did that. The Prophet beckoned her with his hand and she
waited for him. When he had finished the prayer he said, "O daughter of Bani Umaiya! You have
asked me about the two Rakat after the 'Asr prayer. The people of the tribe of 'Abdul-Qais came to
me and made me busy and I could not offer the two Rakat after the Zuhr prayer. These (two Rakat
that I have just prayed) are for those (missed) ones.

Narrated Sahl bin Sad As-Sa'idi:
The news about the differences amongst the people of Bani'Amr bin 'Auf reached Allah's Apostle
and so he went to them along with some of his companions to affect a reconciliation between them.
Allah's Apostle was delayed there, and the time of the prayer was due. Bilal went to Abu Bakr and
said to him, "Allah's Apostle has been delayed (there) and the time of prayer is due. So will you lead
the people in prayer?" Abu Bakr said, "Yes, if you wish." Bilal pronounced the Iqama and Abu Bakr,
went forward and said Takbir for the people. In the mean-time Allah's Apostle came crossing the
rows (of the praying people) and stood in the (first) row and the people started clapping. Abu Bakr,
would never glance side-ways in his prayer but when the people clapped much he looked back and
(saw) Allah's Apostle . Allah's Apostle beckoned him to carry on the prayer. Abu Bakr raised his
hands and thanked Allah, and retreated till he reached the (first) row. Allah's Apostle went forward
and led the people in the prayer. When he completed the prayer he faced the people and said, "O
people! Why did you start clapping when something unusual happened to you in the prayer? Clap-
ping is only for women. So whoever amongst you comes across something in the prayer should say,
'Subhan-Allah' for there is none who will not turn round on hearing him saying Subhan-Allah. O
Ab-u Bakr! What prevented you from leading the people in the prayer when I beckoned you to do
so?" Abu Bakr replied, "How dare the son of Abu Quhafa lead the prayer in the presence of Allah's
Apostle ?"

said, "What is the matter with the people?" She beckoned with her head towards the sky.
I said, "(Is there) a sign?" She nodded intending to say, "Yes."
Volume 2, Book 22, Number 328:

Imam is to be followed. So, bow when he bows, and raise your head when he raises his head." (See
Hadith No. 657 Vol 1 for taking the verdict).
