Sunan Abi Dawud 541 (Book 2, Hadith 151) #20832
Seating Before Prayer

SUMMARY: People should be seated before the prayer leader arrives for prayer.

Abu Hurairah reported: when the Iqamah was pronounced for prayer during the time of the Messenger of Allah , the people would take their seats before the prophet came to his seat.
حَدَّثَنَا مَحْمُودُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا الْوَلِيدُ، قَالَ قَالَ أَبُو عَمْرٍو ح وَحَدَّثَنَا دَاوُدُ بْنُ رُشَيْدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا الْوَلِيدُ، - وَهَذَا لَفْظُهُ - عَنِ الأَوْزَاعِيِّ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، أَنَّ الصَّلاَةَ، كَانَتْ تُقَامُ لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ فَيَأْخُذُ النَّاسُ مَقَامَهُمْ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَأْخُذَ النَّبِيُّ

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about the importance of being seated before the prayer leader arrives for prayer. It was narrated by Abu Hurairah, a companion of Prophet Muhammad ﷺ. The Prophet ﷺ taught that people should take their seats before he arrived to his seat so that they could all start praying together when he arrived. This teaches us to be punctual and organized in our prayers, and to respect our leaders by being ready when they arrive. We should also strive to pray together as a community, as this is an important part of Islamic worship.

By following these teachings, we can ensure that our prayers are done with sincerity and devotion, which will bring us closer to Allah SWT and help us gain His blessings in this life and the hereafter.
