حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو النَّضْرِ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ يَعْنِي شَيْبَانَ، وَلَيْثٌ، عَنْ شَهْرِ بْنِ حَوْشَبٍ، عَنْ أَبِي مَالِكٍ الْأَشْعَرِيِّ، عَنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " أَنَّهُ كَانَ يُسَوِّي بَيْنَ الْأَرْبَعِ رَكَعَاتٍ فِي الْقِرَاءَةِ وَالْقِيَامِ، وَيَجْعَلُ الرَّكْعَةَ الْأُولَى هِيَ أَطْوَلُهُنَّ لِكَيْ يَثُوبَ النَّاسُ، وَيَجْعَلُ الرِّجَالَ قُدَّامَ الْغِلْمَانِ، وَالْغِلْمَانَ خَلْفَهُمْ، وَالنِّسَاءَ خَلْفَ الْغِلْمَانِ، وَيُكَبِّرُ كُلَّمَا سَجَدَ، وَكُلَّمَا رَفَعَ وَيُكَبِّرُ كُلَّمَا نَهَضَ بَيْنَ الرَّكْعَتَيْنِ إِذَا كَانَ جَالِسًا " (١)،

Translation

English translation

It is narrated from Abu Malik Ash'ari (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (ﷺ) used to keep the recitation and standing equal in all four rak'ahs, and he would make the first rak'ah relatively longer so that people could join in it. In arranging the rows, the Noble Prophet (ﷺ) would place men in front of boys, boys behind them, and women behind the boys. And when he would go into prostration or raise his head from it, he would say takbeer, and when standing between the two rak'ahs, he would also say takbeer.
