Wasi' bin Hibban (may Allah have mercy on him) says: I asked Sayyiduna Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) about how the prayer of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was. Sayyiduna Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) mentioned saying takbeer every time he bowed and raised his head, and he mentioned «السلام عليكم ورحمته الله» on the right side and «السلام عليكم» on the left side.
