Hasty performance of prayer which does not allow repose and calmness in rukoo’ or sujood.
The Messenger of Allah (SAW) saw a man who did not complete his rukoo’ [bowing], and made a very short sujood [prostration] ; he (SAW) said: "If this man dies while praying in this manner, he would die upholding a religion other than the religion of Muhammad."
Abu Hurairah (RA) said:
"My beloved friend, Muhammad (SAW) forbade me to perform postures of prayer copying the picking of a rooster; (signifying fast performance of prayer), moving eyes around like a fox and the sitting like monkeys ( i.e. to sit on thighs)." (Imam Ahmad & at-Tayalisi)
The Messenger of Allah (SAW) said: " The worst thief is the one who steals from his own prayer." People asked, ‘Messenger of Allah! How could one steal from his own prayer?’ He (SAW) said: "By not completing its rukoo’ and sujood." (At Tabarani & al-Hakim).
To complete rukoo’ is to stay in that posture long enough to recite ‘Subhana rabbiyal Adtheem’ three times, SLOWLY, and ‘Subhana rabbiyal-a’ala’ three times, SLOWLY, in sujood. He (SAW) also announced: "He who does not complete his rukoo’ and sujood, his prayer is void." (Abu Dawood & others)
