´It was narrated from 'Abdur-Rahman bin Al-Aswad from his father-and Alqamah-that:` Abdullah said: "I saw the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) say the Takbir every time he went down and got up, or stood or sat; he said the Salam on his right and his left: 'As-salamu alaykum wa rahmatulah (peace be upon you and the mercy of Allah ),' until the whiteness of his cheek could be seen." He said: "And I saw Abu Bakr and 'Umar, may Allah (SWT) be pleased with them both, doing the same."

Shaykh Dr. Abdur Rahman Freywai
English Commentary:
1:
In this way, there are a total of eleven takbirs in a two-unit (rak‘ah) prayer, and twenty-two takbirs in a four-unit (rak‘ah) prayer, and in all five obligatory prayers, there are a total of ninety-four takbirs.
It should be noted that when rising from bowing (ruku‘), you would say ((Sami‘a Allahu liman hamidah)),
therefore, this is an exception from the generality of this hadith.
Among these takbirs, only the opening takbir (takbir al-tahrimah) is obligatory (fard), the rest are Sunnah; if they are missed by someone, the prayer is still valid, but the virtue and conformity to the Sunnah are lost thereby.

Shaykh Umar Farooq Saeedi
747. Commentary:
The command regarding *tatbeeq* in bowing (ruku‘) had been abrogated; perhaps Abdullah ibn Mas‘ud radi Allahu anhu was not informed of this, or he did not remember it.

755. Commentary:
Placing the hands in such a way during standing (qiyam) that the right hand is over the left is a mutawatir Sunnah (a Sunnah established by continuous and widespread transmission). Furthermore, scholars should continue to rectify and guide the general public.

Commentary:
Sometimes, in order to draw attention to a mistake, it is appropriate to immediately correct it through practical action.

Hafiz Muhammad Ameen
1084. Commentary: "At every bowing and rising." However, rising from bowing (ruku‘) is an exception to this, for at that point, saying «سمعَ اللَّهُ لمن حمدَهُ» is Sunnah instead of "Allahu Akbar." In other words, the rare instance has been subordinated to the more frequent practice.
