Musnad of Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him)
Musnad Ahmad 8830 — Musnad of Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with)
حَدَّثَنَا عَارِمٌ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا مُعْتَمِرٌ ، قَالَ : وَحَدَّثَنِي أَبِي ، عَنْ بَرَكَةَ ، عَنْ بَشِيرِ بْنِ نَهِيكٍ ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَة ، قَالَ : كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ " يَرْفَعُ يَدَيْهِ فِي الدُّعَاءِ حَتَّى أَرَى بَيَاضَ إِبْطَيْهِ " ، قَالَ أَبِي وَهُوَ أَبُو الْمُعْتَمِرِ : لَا أَظُنُّهُ إِلَّا فِي الِاسْتِسْقَاءِ .
Hazrat Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) says that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) would spread his hands in supplication in such a way that I could see the whiteness of his blessed armpits. The narrator says that in my opinion, this was on the occasion of the prayer for rain (Salat al-Istisqa).
