حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ ، ثنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ آدَمَ ، ثنا أَبُو خَالِدٍ الأَحْمَرُ ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَجْلانَ ، عَنْ عَامِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ الزُّبَيْرِ ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ ، قَالَ : " كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِذَا جَلَسَ يَدْعُو ، يَعْنِي فِي التَّشَهُّدِ ، يَضَعُ يَدَهُ الْيُمْنَى وَيُشِيرُ بِإِصْبُعِهِ الْيُمْنَى السَّبَّابَةِ ، وَيَضَعُ الإِبْهَامَ عَلَى الْوُسْطَى ، وَيَضَعُ يَدَهُ الْيُسْرَى عَلَى فَخِذِهِ الْيُسْرَى ، وَيُلْقَمُ كَفَّهُ الْيُسْرَى فَخِذَهُ الْيُسْرَى " .
Aamir bin Abdullah narrates from his father (Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Zubair, may Allah be pleased with them both): When the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) would sit (during prayer), he would supplicate (the narrator says: that is, he would supplicate in Tashahhud), he would place his blessed right hand and then gesture with his index finger, and at that time he would place his thumb on his middle finger, while he would place his blessed left hand on his left knee, and he would grasp his left knee with his blessed left hand.
