Hadith 652

نا أَبُو زُهَيْرٍ عَبْدُ الْمَجِيدِ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ الْمِصْرِيُّ ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعَيْبٌ يَعْنِي ابْنَ يَحْيَى التُّجِيبِيَّ ، حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ أَيُّوبَ ، عَنْ يَزِيدَ بْنِ أَبِي حَبِيبٍ ، أَنَّ مُحَمَّدَ بْنَ عَمْرِو بْنِ حَلْحَلَةَ ، حَدَّثَهُ ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَمْرِو بْنِ عَطَاءٍ ، أَنَّهُ كَانَ جَالِسًا مَعَ نَفَرٍ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَذَكَرُوا صَلاةَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَقَالَ أَبُو حُمَيْدٍ السَّاعِدِيُّ : أَنَا كُنْتُ أَحْفَظَكُمْ لِصَلاةِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، رَأَيْتُهُ " إِذَا كَبَّرَ جَعَلَ يَدَيْهِ حِذَاءَ مَنْكِبَيْهِ ، فَإِذَا رَكَعَ أَمْكَنَ يَدَيْهِ مِنْ رُكْبَتَيْهِ ، ثُمَّ هَصَرَ ظَهْرَهُ ، فَإِذَا رَفَعَ رَأْسَهُ اسْتَوَى حَتَّى يَعُودَ كُلُّ فَقَارٍ مِنْهُ مَكَانَهُ ، وَإِذَا سَجَدَ ، وَضَعَ يَدَيْهِ غَيْرَ مُفْتَرِشٍ وَلا قَابِضَهُمَا ، وَاسْتَقْبَلَ بِأَصَابِعِ رِجْلَيْهِ الْقِبْلَةَ "
Hazrat Muhammad bin Amr bin Ata narrates that he was sitting with a group of the noble Companions when they discussed the prayer of the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him. Then Sayyiduna Abu Humaid Sa’idi, may Allah be pleased with him, said: I remember the prayer of the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, better than all of you. (I saw the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, that when he said « اللهُ أَكْبَرُ » to begin the prayer, he raised both his hands up to the level of his shoulders. Then when he bowed for ruku’, he firmly placed both his hands on his knees. Then he bent his back. Then when he raised his blessed head, he stood up completely straight until every bone of his returned to its place. And when he performed sajdah, he neither spread his hands too wide nor kept them completely close, and he directed the toes of both his feet towards the qiblah.)
