Musnad Ahmad 5054 — Musnad of Abdullah ibn Umar ibn al-Khattab
(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ ، عَنْ جَابِرٍ ، سَمِعْتُ سَالِمَ بْنَ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ يُحَدِّثُ ، أَنَّهُ رَأَى أَبَاهُ " يَرْفَعُ يَدَيْهِ إِذَا كَبَّرَ ، وَإِذَا أَرَادَ أَنْ يَرْكَعَ ، وَإِذَا رَفَعَ رَأْسَهُ مِنَ الرُّكُوعِ ، فَسَأَلْتُهُ عَنْ ذَلِكَ ؟ فَزَعَمَ أَنَّهُ رَأَى رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَصْنَعُهُ " .
It is narrated from Salim (may Allah have mercy on him) that he saw his father raising his hands to the level of his shoulders at the beginning of the prayer, and also raising his hands when going into bowing (ruku‘) and after raising his head from bowing. I asked him about this, and he said that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) used to do the same.
