قال مالك، فيمن سها فرفع راسه قبل الإمام في ركوع او سجود: إن السنة في ذلك، ان يرجع راكعا او ساجدا، ولا ينتظر الإمام. وذلك خطا ممن فعله، لان رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم قال:" إنما جعل الإمام ليؤتم به فلا تختلفوا عليه"، وقال ابو هريرة: الذي يرفع راسه ويخفضه قبل الإمام، إنما ناصيته بيد شيطان
Imam Malik, may Allah have mercy on him, said that if a person forgetfully raises his head before the imam in bowing (ruku) or prostration (sajdah), then the Sunnah is that he should return to the bowing or prostration and not wait for the imam to raise his head. And whoever does this intentionally has made a mistake, because the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "The imam is appointed only to be followed, so do not differ with him." That is, do not perform the acts before or after him. And our master Abu Huraira, may Allah be pleased with him, said that whoever raises or lowers his head before the imam, his forehead is in the hand of Satan.
