بَابُ سُجُودِ الْمُصَلِّي عَلَى ثَوْبِهِ لِحَاجَةٍ وَكَيْفَ يَسْجُدُ مَنْ زُوحِمَChapter on Prostrating on One's Garment Out of Need and How to Prostrate When Crowded
Hadith 1745
اُردوEn
عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ: شَكَا أَصْحَابُ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِلَيْهِ مَشَقَّةَ السُّجُودِ عَلَيْهِمْ إِذَا تَفَرَّجُوا قَالَ: ((اسْتَعِينُوا بِالرُّكَبِ)) قَالَ ابْنُ عَجْلَانَ: وَذَلِكَ أَنْ يَضَعَ مِرْفَقَهُ عَلَى رُكْبَتَيْهِ إِذَا طَالَ السُّجُودُ وَأَعْيَا
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Companions complained to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) that if they spread out (in prostration), it becomes difficult for them in sujood. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) said: Then seek help from your knees. Ibn ‘Ajlan says: Its manner is that when the prostration becomes lengthy and a person becomes tired, he should rest his elbows on his knees.
