How to reconcile the hadith, “The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) would say takbir and then prostrate, and he would say takbir and then stand up,” with the hadith, “He would say takbir when he prostrated”?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : How do you reconcile the hadith that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) would say takbir and then prostrate, and he would say takbir and then stand up, with the other hadith that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) would say takbir when he prostrated? In the first hadith, the takbir is before the movement, and in the second, it is during the movement. Does he do that?

The Shaykh : Sometimes one way, and sometimes the other.

The questioner : Likewise, O Shaykh. May Allah reward you with good.

The questioner : If one catches up with the imam while he is sitting, does the ma'mum recite the opening supplication, whether he is masbuq from the first or the last rak'ah?

The Shaykh : Sitting in the tashahhud.

The questioner : No, if one catches up with the imam while he is sitting.

The Shaykh : He caught up with him.

The questioner : In the tashahhud, then he sat with the imam, and then stood up with the imam for the third rak'ah. Does the ma'mum recite the opening supplication, or does he recite al-Fatihah?

The Shaykh : He recites al-Fatihah.
Another questioner: ...

The Shaykh : Repeat the question?

The questioner : Yes, reconciling the two hadiths. The hadith of Abu Hurayrah, of course, states that he would say takbir and then prostrate, and he would say takbir and then stand up. The other hadith states that he would say takbir when he prostrated, to the end of the hadith, where the takbir is during the movement.
