Arabic hadith text
أَخْبَرَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، قَالَ أَنْبَأَنَا عَبْدَةُ، عَنْ سَعِيدٍ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ، عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ " أَتِمُّوا الرُّكُوعَ وَالسُّجُودَ فَوَاللَّهِ إِنِّي لأَرَاكُمْ مِنْ خَلْفِ ظَهْرِي فِي رُكُوعِكُمْ وَسُجُودِكُمْ " .
Translation
Ishaq ibn Ibrahim reported to us; he said: ‘Abdah informed us, from Sa‘id, from Qatadah, from Anas, from the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ), who said: ‘Complete your bowing and prostration. By Allah, I can indeed see you from behind my back while you are bowing and prostrating.’
Translation notes
The Arabic says “complete the bowing and prostration” (أَتِمُّوا الرُّكُوعَ وَالسُّجُودَ); the instruction applies to both acts.
