Sunan an-Nasai 1535 (Book 18, Hadith 7) #16146
Prayer of Fear

SUMMARY: The hadith is about the prayer of fear, which was two prostrations done in a group one after another.

It was narrated that Ibn 'Abbas said: "The fear prayer was no more than two prostrations like the prayer of these guards of yours today behind the Imams of yours, except that it was one group after another. One group stood, although they were all behind the Messenger of Allah , and one group prostrated with him, then the Messenger of Allah stood up and they all stood with him. Then he bowed and they all bowed with him, then he prostrated and those who had been standing the first time prostrated with him. When the Messenger of Allah and those who had prostrated with him at the end of their prayer sat, those who had been standing prostrated by themselves, then they sat and the Messenger of Allah said the taslim with all of them.
أَخْبَرَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ سَعْدِ بْنِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَمِّي، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي، عَنِ ابْنِ إِسْحَاقَ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي دَاوُدُ بْنُ الْحُصَيْنِ، عَنْ عِكْرِمَةَ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، قَالَ مَا كَانَتْ صَلاَةُ الْخَوْفِ إِلاَّ سَجْدَتَيْنِ كَصَلاَةِ أَحْرَاسِكُمْ هَؤُلاَءِ الْيَوْمَ خَلْفَ أَئِمَّتِكُمْ هَؤُلاَءِ إِلاَّ أَنَّهَا كَانَتْ عُقَبًا قَامَتْ طَائِفَةٌ مِنْهُمْ وَهُمْ جَمِيعًا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ وَسَجَدَتْ مَعَهُ طَائِفَةٌ مِنْهُمْ ثُمَّ قَامَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ وَقَامُوا مَعَهُ جَمِيعًا ثُمَّ رَكَعَ وَرَكَعُوا مَعَهُ جَمِيعًا ثُمَّ سَجَدَ فَسَجَدَ مَعَهُ الَّذِينَ كَانُوا قِيَامًا أَوَّلَ مَرَّةٍ فَلَمَّا جَلَسَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ وَالَّذِينَ سَجَدُوا مَعَهُ فِي آخِرِ صَلاَتِهِمْ سَجَدَ الَّذِينَ كَانُوا قِيَامًا لأَنْفُسِهِمْ ثُمَّ جَلَسُوا فَجَمَعَهُمْ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ بِالتَّسْلِيمِ

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about the prayer of fear, which was two prostrations done in a group one after another. It was narrated by Ibn 'Abbas that this prayer was no more than two prostrations like the prayers of guards today behind their Imams. One group stood while the other group prostrated with Prophet Muhammad and then they all stood up and bowed together before they all prostrated again. After they finished their prayer, those who were standing at first also did prostration by themselves before sitting down with Prophet Muhammad to say taslim together. This hadith teaches us that we should be united as a community when it comes to praying and worshipping Allah as it brings us closer to Him and strengthens our faith in Him. We should also be mindful of our actions when we are praying so that we can get maximum benefit from it spiritually and emotionally.
