Hadith 867
حَدَّثَنَا
حَفْصُ بْنُ عُمَرَ ، حَدَّثَنَا
شُعْبَةُ ، عَنْ
أَبِي يَعْفُورٍ قَال أَبُو دَاوُد وَاسْمُهُ وَقْدَان ، عَنْ
مُصْعَبِ بْنِ سَعْدٍ ، قَالَ : " صَلَّيْتُ إِلَى جَنْبِ أَبِي فَجَعَلْتُ يَدَيَّ بَيْنَ رُكْبَتَيَّ ، فَنَهَانِي عَنْ ذَلِكَ فَعُدْتُ ، فَقَالَ : لَا تَصْنَعْ هَذَا ، فَإِنَّا كُنَّا نَفْعَلُهُ فَنُهِينَا عَنْ ذَلِكَ ، وَأُمِرْنَا أَنْ نَضَعَ أَيْدِيَنَا عَلَى الرُّكَبِ " .
Musab b Saad said: I prayed by the side of my father. I put both of my hands between my knees (in bowing condition). He prohibited me from it. I then repeated; so he said: Do not do so, because we used to do so. But we were prohibited to do that, and commanded to put our hands on the knees.
Hadith 868
Abdullah (bin Masud) said: When any of you bows, he should spread his arms on his thighs and clap both his palms (Placing them between the knees), as if I am seeing the variation of the fingers of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ.
