Sayyiduna Muawiyah bin Abu Sufyan (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "Do not try to go into ruku‘ (bowing) or sujud (prostration) before me, because my body has become heavy. When I go into ruku‘ before you, you will find me when I am rising, and when I go into sujud before you, however much I have gone ahead of you, you will find me when I am rising."
