Sunan an-Nasai 1553 (Book 18, Hadith 25) #16164
The Procedure of Fear Prayer

SUMMARY: This hadith explains the procedure of how to perform the fear prayer, which is a two-rak'ah prayer with one rak'ah being performed by the Imam and another rak'ah being performed by those praying behind him.

It was narrated that Sahl bin Abi Hathmah said concerning the fear prayer: "The imam should stand up facing the Qiblah and some of them should stand with him while the others stand facing the enemy. Then he should pray one rak'ah with them and they should pray another rak'ah by themselves, and prostrate twice where they are. Then they should go to where the others are and the others should come and he should lead them in bowing once and prostrating twice, so it will be two rak'ahs for him and one for them. Then they should bow once and prostrate twice (by themselves, to make up the other rak'ah)".
أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو حَفْصٍ، عَمْرُو بْنُ عَلِيٍّ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ سَعِيدٍ، عَنِ الْقَاسِمِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ، عَنْ صَالِحِ بْنِ خَوَّاتٍ، عَنْ سَهْلِ بْنِ أَبِي حَثْمَةَ، فِي صَلاَةِ الْخَوْفِ قَالَ يَقُومُ الإِمَامُ مُسْتَقْبِلَ الْقِبْلَةِ وَتَقُومُ طَائِفَةٌ مِنْهُمْ مَعَهُ وَطَائِفَةٌ قِبَلَ الْعَدُوِّ وَوُجُوهُهُمْ إِلَى الْعَدُوِّ فَيَرْكَعُ بِهِمْ رَكْعَةً وَيَرْكَعُونَ لأَنْفُسِهِمْ وَيَسْجُدُونَ سَجْدَتَيْنِ فِي مَكَانِهِمْ وَيَذْهَبُونَ إِلَى مَقَامِ أُولَئِكَ وَيَجِيءُ أُولَئِكَ فَيَرْكَعُ بِهِمْ وَيَسْجُدُ بِهِمْ سَجْدَتَيْنِ فَهِيَ لَهُ ثِنْتَانِ وَلَهُمْ وَاحِدَةٌ ثُمَّ يَرْكَعُونَ رَكْعَةً رَكْعَةً وَيَسْجُدُونَ سَجْدَتَيْنِ

EXPLANATIONS:
The fear prayer is a two-rak'ah prayer that is usually done in times of danger or war. It involves one rak'ah being led by an Imam and another rak'ah being done individually. During this prayer, the Imam stands facing the Qiblah while some people stand with him and others face towards the enemy. He then leads them in bowing once and prostrating twice, making it two rak’ahs for him and one for them. After this, they should bow once more and prostrate twice to make up their second rak’ahs individually. This hadith teaches us that we should be prepared to pray even in difficult situations such as war or danger, as it can help us stay connected to Allah even when we are facing adversity. It also teaches us about following instructions from our leaders during such times so that we can all benefit from collective worship together.
