It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah, may Allah be pleased with him, that the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: When the iqamah for prayer is called, do not come running for the prayer, but come in a state of calmness and dignity. Then, whatever you catch (with the imam), perform it, and whatever you miss, complete it later. For when any of you intends to pray, he is already considered to be in prayer.
