وَعَنِ الْمُغِيرَةِ بْنِ شُعْبَةَ
قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «إِذَا قَامَ الْإِمَامُ فِي الرَّكْعَتَيْنِ فَإِنْ ذَكَرَ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَسْتَوِي قَائِما فليجلس وَإِنِ اسْتَوَى قَائِمًا فَلَا يَجْلِسْ وَلْيَسْجُدْ سَجْدَتَيِ السَّهْو»
Al-Mughirah ibn Shubah reported God’s Messenger as saying, “When an imam stands up at the end of two rakas, if he remembers before standing straight up he should sit down, but if he stands straight up he must not sit down, but perform the two prostrations of forgetfulness.”
