أَخْبَرَنَا
قُتَيْبَةُ ، قال : حَدَّثَنَا
أَبُو عَوَانَةَ ، عَنْ
أَبِي يَعْفُورٍ ، عَنْ
مُصْعَبِ بْنِ سَعْدٍ ، قال : صَلَّيْتُ إِلَى جَنْبِ
أَبِي وَجَعَلْتُ يَدَيَّ بَيْنَ رُكْبَتَيَّ فَقَالَ : " اضْرِبْ بِكَفَّيْكَ عَلَى رُكْبَتَيْكَ ، قَالَ : ثُمَّ فَعَلْتُ ذَلِكَ مَرَّةً أُخْرَى فَضَرَبَ يَدِي وَقَالَ : إِنَّا قَدْ نُهِينَا عَنْ هَذَا وَأُمِرْنَا أَنْ نَضْرِبَ بِالْأَكُفِّ عَلَى الرُّكَبِ " .
´It was narrated that Mus'ab bin Sa'd said:` "I prayed beside my father and I put my hands between my knees, and he told me: 'Put your hands on your knees.' Then I did that again and he struck my hands and said: 'We were forbidden to do that, and we were commanded to put our hands on our knees.'"
