Hadith #492
Arabic Text
حَدَّثَنَا حُسَيْنٌ عَنْ زَائِدَةَ عَنْ سِمَاكٍ عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ سَمُرَةَ قَالَ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَ
لَّمَ يَخْطُبُ يَوْمَ الْجُمُعَةِ قَائِمًا فَمَنْ حَدَّثَكَ أَنَّهُ جَلَسَ فَكَذِّبْهُ قَالَ وَقَالَ جَابِرٌ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَخْطُبُ خُطْبَتَيْنِ يَخْطُبُ ثُمَّ يَجْلِسُ ثُمَّ يَقُومُ فَيَخْطُبُ وَكَانَتْ خُطْبَةُ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَصَلَاتُهُ قَصْدًا

English Translation
It was narrated from Jabir ibn Samura (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to deliver the Friday sermon while standing. Whoever tells you that he delivered it sitting has lied. His prayers were not like the prayers of people today — they were shorter.
