Sahih al-Bukhari 803 (Book 10, Hadith 198) #778
The Prayer of Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ)

SUMMARY: This hadith is about the prayer of Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) and how Abu Huraira used to follow it.

Narrated Abu Bakr bin 'Abdur Rahman Ibn Harith bin Hisham and Abu Salama bin 'Abdur Rahman: Abu Huraira used to say Takbir in all the prayers, compulsory and optional -- in the month of Ramadan or other months. He used to say Takbir on standing for prayer and on bowing; then he would say, "Sami'a l-lahu liman hamidah," and before prostrating he would say "Rabbana wa laka lhamd". Then he would say Takbir on prostrating and on raising his head from the prostration, then another Takbir on prostrating (for the second time), and on raising his head from the prostration. He also would say the Takbir on standing from the second rak'a. He used to do the same in every rak'a till he completed the prayer. On completion of the prayer, he would say, "By Him in Whose Hands my soul is! No doubt my prayer is closer to that of Allah's Messenger than yours, and this was His prayer till he left this world".
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْيَمَانِ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا شُعَيْبٌ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ الْحَارِثِ بْنِ هِشَامٍ، وَأَبُو سَلَمَةَ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ أَنَّ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ، كَانَ يُكَبِّرُ فِي كُلِّ صَلاَةٍ مِنَ الْمَكْتُوبَةِ وَغَيْرِهَا فِي رَمَضَانَ وَغَيْرِهِ، فَيُكَبِّرُ حِينَ يَقُومُ، ثُمَّ يُكَبِّرُ حِينَ يَرْكَعُ، ثُمَّ يَقُولُ سَمِعَ اللَّهُ لِمَنْ حَمِدَهُ‏.‏ ثُمَّ يَقُولُ رَبَّنَا وَلَكَ الْحَمْدُ‏.‏ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَسْجُدَ، ثُمَّ يَقُولُ اللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ‏.‏ حِينَ يَهْوِي سَاجِدًا، ثُمَّ يُكَبِّرُ حِينَ يَرْفَعُ رَأْسَهُ مِنَ السُّجُودِ، ثُمَّ يُكَبِّرُ حِينَ يَسْجُدُ، ثُمَّ يُكَبِّرُ حِينَ يَرْفَعُ رَأْسَهُ مِنَ السُّجُودِ، ثُمَّ يُكَبِّرُ حِينَ يَقُومُ مِنَ الْجُلُوسِ فِي الاِثْنَتَيْنِ، وَيَفْعَلُ ذَلِكَ فِي كُلِّ رَكْعَةٍ حَتَّى يَفْرُغَ مِنَ الصَّلاَةِ، ثُمَّ يَقُولُ حِينَ يَنْصَرِفُ وَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ إِنِّي لأَقْرَبُكُمْ شَبَهًا بِصَلاَةِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ إِنْ كَانَتْ هَذِهِ لَصَلاَتَهُ حَتَّى فَارَقَ الدُّنْيَا‏.‏

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about the prayer of Prophet Muhammad ﷺ and how his companion, Abu Huraira used to follow it. It was narrated by two companions of the prophet; Abū Bakr ibn ‘Abdu r-Raḥmān ibn Ḥārith ibn Hishām and Abū Salama ibn ‘Abdu r-Raḥmān. In this hadith we learn that when praying in Ramadan or any other month, one should say takbīr on standing for prayer and on bowing; then they should say "Sami'Allahu liman hamida" which means "Allah hears those who praise Him". Before prostrating they should say "Rabbana wa Laka al-Hamd" which means "Our Lord! All praise be to You". They should also say takbīr on prostrating twice as well as when standing from the second rak’ah until completing their prayer. After completing their prayer they can make a dua saying “By Him in Whose Hands my soul is! No doubt my prayer is closer to that of Allah's Messenger than yours”. This Hadith teaches us that we must strive to pray like our beloved prophet ﷺ did so that our prayers are accepted by Allah SWT.
