سنن نسائی · Hadith 110
Al-Mughira bin Shu’bah said: “There are two things which I never asked anyone about after I saw the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم. He was with us on a journey and he went away to relieve himself, then he came and performed Wudu and he wiped over his forehead and two sides of his ‘Imamah, and he wiped over his Khuffs.” He said: “And (the other issue) the Imam’s Salah behind one of his followers. I saw the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم. when he was on a journey and time for prayer came. The Prophet صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم could not join them, so they called the Iqamah and they asked Ibn ‘Awf to lead them in prayer. Then the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم, came and offered the remainder of the prayer behind Ibn ‘Awf then when Ibn ‘Awf said the Salah, the Prophet صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم stood up and completed what he had missed (of the prayer).” (Sahih)
