(كَيْفَ يُؤَدَّى السُّجُودُ؟)
(How is prostration performed?)
Hadith 889
وَعَنِ الْبَرَاءِ بْنِ عَازِبٍ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: إِذَا سَجَدْتَ فضع كفيك وارفع مرفقيك رَوَاهُ مُسلم
Al-Bara’ b. ‘Azib reported God's Messenger as saying, “When you prostrate yourself, place the palms of your hands on the ground and raise your elbows.” Muslim transmitted it.
