Prayer

Sahih (authentic)« Sahih Lighairihi » by Salim al-Hilali

وَحَدَّثَنِي عَنْ مَالِكٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ عَوْفٍ، أَنَّ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ، كَانَ يُصَلِّي لَهُمْ فَيُكَبِّرُ كُلَّمَا خَفَضَ وَرَفَعَ فَإِذَا انْصَرَفَ قَالَ وَاللَّهِ إِنِّي لأَشْبَهُكُمْ بِصَلاَةِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏.‏

Yahya related to me from Malik from Ibn Shihab from Abu Salama ibn Abdar-Rahman ibn Awf that Abu Hurayra used to lead them in prayer and would say "Allah is greater" whenever he lowered himself and raised himself. When he had finished he would say, "By Allah, I am the person whose prayer most resembles the prayer of the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace
EN
Abou Salama Ibn Abdel-Rahman Ibn Awf, a rapporté que Abou Houraira leur présidant la prière, prononçait le takbir à chaque fois qu'il s'abaissait (pour s'incliner et pour se prosterner) et puis qu'il relevait la tête (de la prosternation). Sa prière terminée, il dit: «Par Allah! Cette prière est pareille à celle que faisait l'Envoyé d'Allah (salallahou alayhi wa salam)»
