Hadith 373
It is narrated from Abu Ja'far Qari that I saw Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them) when he would bow down to prostrate, he would lightly remove the pebbles from his place of prostration.
Hadith 374
وَحَدَّثَنِي ، عَنْ وَحَدَّثَنِي ، عَنْ مَالِك ، عَنْ
يَحْيَى بْنِ سَعِيدٍ ، أَنَّهُ بَلَغَهُ ، أَنَّ
أَبَا ذَرٍّ ، كَانَ يَقُولُ :
" مَسْحُ الْحَصْبَاءِ مَسْحَةً وَاحِدَةً وَتَرْكُهَا خَيْرٌ مِنْ حُمْرِ النَّعَمِ "
It is narrated from Yahya bin Saeed that it reached him that Sayyiduna Abu Dharr (may Allah be pleased with him) used to say: Removing the pebbles once is permissible, and not removing them is better than red camels.
