حَدَّثَنَا
عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مَسْلَمَةَ ، عَنْ
مَالِكٍ ، عَنْ
أَيُّوبَ ، عَنْ
مُحَمَّدٍ بِإِسْنَادِهِ ، وَحَدِيثُ حَمَّادٍ أَتَمُّ ، قَالَ : " صَلَّى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، لَمْ يَقُلْ : بِنَا ، وَلَمْ يَقُلْ : فَأَوْمَئُوا ، قَالَ : فَقَالَ النَّاسُ : نَعَمْ ، قَالَ : ثُمَّ رَفَعَ وَلَمْ يَقُلْ : وَكَبَّرَ ، ثُمَّ كَبَّرَ وَسَجَدَ مِثْلَ سُجُودِهِ أَوْ أَطْوَلَ ، ثُمَّ رَفَعَ وَتَمَّ حَدِيثُهُ " ، لَمْ يَذْكُرْ مَا بَعْدَهُ ، وَلَمْ يَذْكُرْ فَأَوْمَئُوا إِلَّا حَمَّادُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ . قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُد : وَكُلُّ مَنْ رَوَى هَذَا الْحَدِيثَ لَمْ يَقُلْ : فَكَبَّرَ وَلَا ذَكَرَ رَجَعَ .
This tradition has been narrated through a different chain of transmitters; but the version of Hammad is more perfect. This version goes; then the Messenger of Allah ﷺ prayed; it does not have the words, “led us (in prayer), ” nor the words “they made a sign”. Thereupon the people said: Yes. He then raised his head. The version does not mention the words “he uttered the takbir. He then uttered the takbir and made the prostration as usual or prolonged it. He then raised his head”. The narrator then prostration as usual or prolonged it. He then raised his head”. The narrator then finished the tradition and did not mention the words that follow it. He did not mention the words “they made a sign”, but Hammad bin Zaid mentioned them in his version. Abu dawud said: Anyone who narrated this tradition did not mention the words “ then he uttered the takbir”, nor the words “he returned”

Shaykh Umar Farooq Saeedi
1009. Commentary:
This mentions the differing wordings among the narrators, and reconciliation between them is as follows: some responded verbally, while others responded by gesture. It is authentically established that saying the takbir (Allahu Akbar) is prescribed when going into the prostration of forgetfulness (sujud as-sahw) and when raising the head from it.
