حَدَّثَنَا مُسْلِمٌ، وَمُعَاذُ بْنُ فَضَالَةَ، قَالَا: أَخْبَرَنَا هِشَامٌ، عَنْ يَحْيَى، عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ

قَالَ رَأَيْتُ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ رضى الله عنه قَرَأَ «إِذَا السَّمَاءُ انْشَقَّتْ» فَسَجَدَ بِهَا فَقُلْتُ: يَا أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ، أَلَمْ أَرَكَ تَسْجُدُ قَالَ لَوْ لَمْ أَرَ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَسْجُدُ لَمْ أَسْجُدْ

I saw Abu Hurayrah reciting Idha-Sama un-Shaqqat and he prostrated during its recitation. I asked Abu Hurayrah, “Didn’t I see you prostrating?” Abu Hurayrah said, “Had I not seen the Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) prostrating, I would not have prostrated.”

আবূ সালামাহ হতে বর্ণিত। তিনি বলেন, একবার আবূ হুরাইরাহ্ (রাযি.)-কে দেখলাম, তিনি إِذَا السَّمَاءُ انْشَقَّتْ সূরাহ্ তিলাওয়াত করলেন এবং সিজদা্ করলেন। আমি জিজ্ঞেস করলাম, হে আবূ হুরাইরাহ্! আমি কি আপনাকে সিজদা্ করতে দেখিনি? তিনি বললেন, আমি নবী সাল্লাল্লাহু আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম -কে সিজদা্ করতে না দেখলে সিজদা্ করতাম না। (৭৬৬)

ہم سے مسلم بن ابراہیم اور معاذ بن فضالہ نے بیان کیا، انہوں نے کہا کہ ہم سے ہشام بن ابی عبداللہ دستوائی نے بیان کیا، ان سے یحییٰ بن ابی کثیر نے، ان سے ابوسلمہ نے کہا کہ میں نے ابوہریرہ رضی اللہ عنہ کو سورۃ «إذا السماء انشقت‏» پڑھتے دیکھا۔

آپ نے اس میں سجدہ کیا میں نے کہا کہ اے ابوہریرہ! کیا میں نے آپ کو سجدہ کرتے ہوئے نہیں دیکھا ہے۔ آپ نے کہا کہ اگر میں نبی کریم صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم کو سجدہ کرتے نہ دیکھتا تو میں بھی نہ کرتا۔

Telah menceritakan kepada kami [Muslim bin Ibrahim] dan [Mu'adz bin Fadhalah] keduanya berkata, telah mengabarkan kepada kami [Hisyam] dari [Yahya] dari [Abu Salamah] berkata; "Aku melihat [Abu Hurairah radliallahu 'anhu] membaca idzas samaa-unsyaqqat (QS Al Insyiqaq) lalu dia sujud tilawah. Kemudian aku bertanya kepadanya: "Wahai Abu Hurairah mengapa anda melakukan sujud?" Maka dia menjawab: "Seandainya aku tidak melihat Nabi shallallahu 'alaihi wasallam sujud, tentu aku tidak akan sujud

Ebu Seleme (r.a.)'in şöyle dediği nakledilmiştir: Ebu Hureyre (r.a.)'in İnşikak suresini okuyup secde ettiğini gördüm. Kendisine, şaşkınlıkla niçin secde ettiğini sorunca bana şu cevabı verdi: "Resul-i Ekrem Sallallahu Aleyhi ve Sellem'in secde ettiğini görmeseydim ben de secde etmezdim." باب: منن سجد لسجود القارىء. 8. Secde ayetini Okuyan Secde Ettiğinde, Onu Dinleyenin De Secde Etmesi -وقال ابن مسعود لتميم بن حذلم، وهو غلام، فقرأ عليه سجدة، فقال: اسجد، فإنك إمامنا فيها.

İbn Mes'ud, o sıralarda daha küçük olan Temîm İbn Hazlem'e Kur'an okumasını emretti. Temîm de bir secde ayeti okuyunca İbn Mes'ud ona: "Haydi secde et, bu secdede sen bizim imamımızsın" dedi

Sahih al-Bukhari 1074, Book 17, Prostration During Recital of Qur'an, Hadith 8. 1 min read

What it means

Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) mentioned that he recited Sūrat al-Inshiqāq and then prostrated when he reached the verse that says: {And when the Qur’an is recited to them, they do not prostrate [to Allah ]?} [Sūrat al-Inshiqāq: 21] Abu Rāfi‘ then questioned him regarding this prostration after recitation of that verse.

In another narration, Abu Rāfi‘ asked why he prostrated. He asked him because it was narrated that the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) had not prostrated while reciting the small Sūrahs since he emigrated to Madīnah. Abu Hurayrah then said: "If I had not seen the Messenger (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) prostrate, I would not have prostrated."

In other words, he only prostrated because he had seen the Messenger (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) prostrate.
