Abu Dawud

Narrated Wail ibn Hujr: I saw that the Prophet ﷺ placed his knees (on the ground) before placing his hands when he prostrated himself. And when he stood up, he raised his hands before his knees.

The above-mentioned tradition has also been transmitted by Wail bin Hujr through a different chain of narrators. This version has: When he prostrated himself, his knees fell on the ground before his hands had fallen. Hemmam said: This tradition has also been transmitted by Asim bin Kulaib through a different chain of narrators to the same effect. And one of these two versions, and probably the version narrated by Muhammad bin Juhadah, has the words: When he stood up (after prostration), he stood up on his knees taking the support of his thighs.

Abu Hurairah reported the Messenger of Allah ﷺ as saying: when one of you prostrates himself he must not kneel in the manner of camel, but should put down his hands before his knees.

Narrated Abu Hurairah: The Prophet ﷺ said: (Does) one of you kneel down in his prayer as a camel kneels down (i. e. put his knees before his hands).
