Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said, "When the Imam says, "Sami`a l-lahu liman hamidah," you should say,
"Allahumma Rabbana laka l-hamd." And if the saying of any one of you coincides with that of the
angels, all his past sins will be forgiven."
Sahih al-Bukhari Book 10, Hadith 191

When the Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Sami`a l-lahu liman hamidah," (Allah heard those who sent praises to Him),
he would say, "Rabbana wa laka l-hamd." On bowing and raising his head from it the Prophet (ﷺ) used to
say Takbir. He also used to say Takbir on rising after the two prostrations. (See Hadith No. 656).
