Sunan an-Nasai 1545 (Book 18, Hadith 17) #16156
Moving Forward in Prayer

SUMMARY: The Prophet ﷺ led the people in prayer, and they moved forward to take the place of their companions. He bowed once and prostrated twice, and they followed suit.

It was narrated from Jabir bin 'Abdullah that: The Messenger of Allah led them in offering the fear prayer. One row stood in front of him and another row stood behind him. He led those who were behind in prayer, bowing once and prostrating twice, then they moved forward until they took the place of their companions, and the others came and took their place, and the Messenger of Allah led them in prayer, bowing once and prostrating twice, then he said the taslim, so the Prophet had prayed two rak'ahs and they had prayed one.
أَخْبَرَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ الْحَسَنِ، عَنْ حَجَّاجِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ، عَنْ شُعْبَةَ، عَنِ الْحَكَمِ، عَنْ يَزِيدَ الْفَقِيرِ، عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى بِهِمْ صَلاَةَ الْخَوْفِ فَقَامَ صَفٌّ بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ وَصَفٌّ خَلْفَهُ صَلَّى بِالَّذِينَ خَلْفَهُ رَكْعَةً وَسَجْدَتَيْنِ ثُمَّ تَقَدَّمَ هَؤُلاَءِ حَتَّى قَامُوا فِي مَقَامِ أَصْحَابِهِمْ وَجَاءَ أُولَئِكَ فَقَامُوا مَقَامَ هَؤُلاَءِ وَصَلَّى بِهِمْ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ رَكْعَةً وَسَجْدَتَيْنِ ثُمَّ سَلَّمَ فَكَانَتْ لِلنَّبِيِّ رَكْعَتَانِ وَلَهُمْ رَكْعَةٌ

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about how the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ led his followers in prayer. He would bow once and prostrate twice, then those behind him would move forward to take the place of those who were in front of them. This process was repeated until everyone had prayed two rak'ahs together with him. The lesson here is that we should be mindful of our actions when we are praying, following along with what our leader does so that we can all pray together as one community. We should also be respectful towards each other by taking turns leading prayers so that everyone has a chance to participate fully in worshiping Allah ï·».
