Characteristics of Prayer

134 hadith found in ' Characteristics of Prayer ' of Sahih Bukhari.
699
Narrated Anas bin Malik Al-Ansari: Allah's Apostle rode a horse and
fell down and the right side of his body was injured. On that day he
prayed one of the prayers sitting and we also prayed behind him
sitting. When the Prophet finished the prayer with Taslim, he said,
"The Imam is to be followed and if he prays standing then pray
standing, and bow when he bows, and raise your heads when he raises
his head; prostrate when he prostrates; and if he says"Sami'a-l-lahu
Liman hamida", you should say,"Rabbana wa-laka-l hamd.:
700
Narrated Anas bin Malik: Allah's Apostle fell from a horse and got
injured so he led the prayer sitting and we also prayed sitting.
Whenhe completed the prayer he said, "The Imam is to be followed; if
he says Takbir then say Takbir, bow if he bows; raise your heads when
he raises his head, when he says, 'Sami' a-l-lahu Liman hamida say,
'Rabbana laka-l-hamd', and prostrate when he prostrates."
701
Narrated Abu Huraira: The Prophet said, "The Imam is to be followed.
Say the Takbir when he says it; bow if he bows; if he says 'Sami
a-l-lahu Liman hamida', say, ' Rabbana wa-laka-l-hamd', prostrate if
he prostrates and pray sitting altogether if he prays sitting."
702
Narrated Salim bin 'Abdullah: My father said,"Allah's Apostle used to
raise both his hands up to the level of his shoulders when opening the
prayer; and on sayingthe Takbir for bowing. And on raising his head
from bowing he used to do the same and then say"Sami a-l-lahu Liman
hamida, Rabbana walaka-l-hamd." And he did not do that (i.e. raising
his hands) in prostrations.
703
Narrated 'Abdullah bin 'Umar: I saw that whenever Allah's Apostle
stood for the prayer, he used to raise both his hands up to the
shoulders, and used to do the same on saying the Takbir for bowing and
on raising his head from it and used to say,"Sami a-l-lahu Liman
hamida". But he did not do that (i.e. raising his hands) in
prostrations.

Narrated 'Abdullah bin 'Umar: I saw Allah's Apostle opening the prayer
with the Takbir and raising his hands to the level of his shoulders at
the time of saying the Takbir, and on saying theTakbir for bowing he
didthe same; and when he said, "Sami a-l-lahu Liman hamida ", he did
the same and then said,"Rabbana wa laka-l-hamd." But he did not dothe
same on prostrating and on lifting the head from it."
