Forgetfulness in Prayer !!

Forgetfulness in Prayer !!

Narrated `Abdullah bin Buhaina (R.a):

Allah's Messenger (s.a.w.w) once led us in a prayer and offered two rak`at and got up (for the third rak`a) without sitting (after the second rak`a). The people also got up with him, and when he was about to finish his prayer, we waited for him to finish the prayer with Taslim but he said Takbir before Taslim and performed two prostrations while sitting and then finished the prayer with Taslim.

Narrated `Abdullah bin Buhaina (r.a):

Allah's Messenger (s.a.w.w) got up after the second rak`a of the Zuhr prayer without sitting in between (the second and the third rak`at). When he finished the prayer he performed two prostrations (of Sahu) and then finished the prayer with Taslim.

Chapter: If one offers five Rak'a (instead of four)

Narrated' `Abdullah (r.a):

Once Allah's Messenger (s.a.w.w) offered five rak`at in the Zuhr prayer, and somebody asked him whether there was some increase in the prayer. Allah's Messenger (s.a.w.w) said, "What is that?" He said, "You have offered five rak`at." So Allah's Messenger (s.a.w.w) performed two prostrations of Sahu after Taslim.
