عَنْ عَامِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ الزُّبَيْرِ عَنْ أَبِيهِ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ: رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ افْتَتَحَ الصَّلَاةَ فَرَفَعَ يَدَيْهِ حَتَّى جَاوَزَ بِهِمَا أُذُنَيْهِ
Sayyiduna Amir bin Abdullah bin Zubair narrates from his father, and he says: I saw the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, when he began the prayer, he raised his hands high until he brought them above his ears.
