Q
What is the significance of following the Imam during prayer in Islam?
A
Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) during his illness prayed in his house sitting, whereas some people followed him
standing, but the Prophet (ﷺ) beckoned them to sit down. On completion of the prayer he said, “The Imam
is to be followed. So, bow when he bows, and raise your head when he raises his head.” (See Hadith
No. 657 Vol 1 for taking the verdict).
