Arabic hadith text

أَخْبَرَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ عَلِيٍّ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ، عَنْ سُفْيَانَ، عَنْ أَبِي الزُّبَيْرِ، عَنْ جَابِرٍ، قَالَ كُنَّا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم بِنَخْلٍ وَالْعَدُوُّ بَيْنَنَا وَبَيْنَ الْقِبْلَةِ فَكَبَّرَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم فَكَبَّرُوا جَمِيعًا ثُمَّ رَكَعَ فَرَكَعُوا جَمِيعًا ثُمَّ سَجَدَ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم وَالصَّفُّ الَّذِي يَلِيهِ وَالآخَرُونَ قِيَامٌ يَحْرُسُونَهُمْ فَلَمَّا قَامُوا سَجَدَ الآخَرُونَ مَكَانَهُمُ الَّذِينَ كَانُوا فِيهِ ثُمَّ تَقَدَّمَ هَؤُلاَءِ إِلَى مَصَافِّ هَؤُلاَءِ فَرَكَعَ فَرَكَعُوا جَمِيعًا ثُمَّ رَفَعَ فَرَفَعُوا جَمِيعًا ثُمَّ سَجَدَ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم وَالصَّفُّ الَّذِينَ يَلُونَهُ وَالآخَرُونَ قِيَامٌ يَحْرُسُونَهُمْ فَلَمَّا سَجَدُوا وَجَلَسُوا سَجَدَ الآخَرُونَ مَكَانَهُمْ ثُمَّ سَلَّمَ ‏.‏ قَالَ جَابِرٌ كَمَا يَفْعَلُ أُمَرَاؤُكُمْ ‏.‏

Translation

‘Amr ibn ‘Ali narrated to us; he said: ‘Abd al-Rahman narrated to us, from Sufyan, from Abu al-Zubayr, from Jabir, who said: We were with the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) at Nakhla, with the enemy between us and the qiblah. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) proclaimed Allah’s greatness, and we all did too. Then he bowed, and we all bowed. Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and the row nearest him prostrated, while the others stood guarding them. When they stood, the others prostrated where they had been. Then the first group moved forward to the positions of the others. He bowed, and they all bowed; then he raised his head, and they all raised theirs. Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and the row nearest him prostrated, while the others stood guarding them. When they had prostrated and sat, the others prostrated where they were. Then he said the taslim. Jabir said: As your leaders do.
