Al-Bara' b. 'Azib reported: I noticed the prayer of Muhammad ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) and saw his Qiyam (standing), his bowing, and then going back to the standing posture after bowing, his prostration, his sitting between the two prostrations, and his prostration and sitting between salutation and going away, all these were nearly equal to one another.
وحَدَّثَنَا حَامِدُ بْنُ عُمَرَ الْبَكْرَاوِيُّ، وَأَبُو كَامِلٍ فُضَيْلُ بْنُ حُسَيْنٍ الْجَحْدَرِيُّ، كِلَاهُمَا عَنْ أَبِي عَوَانَةَ، قَالَ حَامِدٌ: حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَوَانَةَ، عَنْ هِلَالِ بْنِ أَبِي حُمَيْدٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ أَبِي لَيْلَى، عَنِ الْبَرَاءِ بْنِ عَازِبٍ، قَالَ: «رَمَقْتُ الصَّلَاةَ مَعَ مُحَمَّدٍ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَوَجَدْتُ قِيَامَهُ فَرَكْعَتَهُ، فَاعْتِدَالَهُ بَعْدَ رُكُوعِهِ، فَسَجْدَتَهُ، فَجَلْسَتَهُ بَيْنَ السَّجْدَتَيْنِ، فَسَجْدَتَهُ، فَجَلْسَتَهُ مَا بَيْنَ التَّسْلِيمِ وَالِانْصِرَافِ، قَرِيبًا مِنَ السَّوَاءِ
  ہلال بن ابی حمید نے عبد الرحمن بن ابی لیلیٰ سے اور انہوں نے حضرت براء بن عازب ‌رضی ‌اللہ ‌عنہ ‌ ‌ سے روایت کی کہ میں نے محمدﷺ کی معیت میں ( پڑھی جانے والی ) نماز کو غور سے دیکھا تو میں نے آپ کے قیام ، رکوع ، رکوع کے بعد اعتدال اور آپ کے سجدے ، دونوں سجدوں کے درمیان جلسے ( بیٹھنا ) اور آپ کے دوسرے سجدے اور اس کے بعد سلام اور رخ پھیرنے کے درمیان وقفے کو تقریبا برابر پایا ۔

sahih-muslim-1058

Hakam reported: There dominated in Kufa a man whose name was men- tioned as Zaman b. al-Ash'ath, who ordered Abu 'Ubaidah b. 'Abdullah to lead people in prayer and he accordingly used to lead them. Whenever he raised his head after bowing, he stood up equal to the time that I can recite (this supplication): O Allah! our Lord! unto Thee be the praise which would fill the heavens and the earth, and that which will please Thee besides them I Worthy art Thou of all praise and glory. None can prevent that which Thou bestowest, and none can bestow that whichthou preventest. And the greatness of the great will not avail him against Thee. Hakam (the narrator) said: I made a mention of that to Abd al-Rahman ibn Abi Laila who reported: I heard al-Bara' b. 'Azib say that the prayer of the Messenger of Allah ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) and his bowing, and when he lifted his head from bowing, and his prostration, and between the two prostrations (all these acts) were nearly proportionate. I made a mention of that to 'Ar b. Murrah and he said: I saw Ibn Abi Laili (saying the prayer), but his prayer was not like this.

Thabit reported it on the authority of Anas: While leading you in prayer I do not shorten anything in the prayer. I pray as I saw the Messenger of Allah ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) leading us. He (Thabit) said: Anas used to do that which I do not see you doing; when he lifted his head from bowing he stood up (so long) that one would say: He has forgotten (to baw down in prostration). And when he lifted his head from prostration, he stayed in that position, till someone would say: He has forgotten (to bow down in prostration for the second sajda).

Thabit reported it on the authority of Anas: I have never said such a light and perfect prayer as I said behind the Messenger of Allah ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ). The prayer of the Messenger. of Allah ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) was well balanced. And so too was the prayer of Abu Bakr well balanced. When it was the time of 'Umar b. al-Khattab he prolonged the morning prayer. When the Messenger of Allah ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) said: Allah listened to him who praised Him, he stood erect till we said: He has forgotten. He then prostrated and sat between two prostration till we said: He has forgotten.

Al-Bara' (b. 'Azib), and he was no liar (but a truthful Companion of the Holy Prophet), reported: They used to say prayer behind the Messenger of Allah ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ). I never saw anyone bending his back at the time when he (the Holy Prophet) raised his head, till the Messenger of Allah ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) placed his forehead on the ground. They then fell in prostration after him.
