أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ، أنبأ الْحَسَنُ بْنُ حَلِيمٍ الصَّائِغُ، بِمَرْوَ ثنا أَبُو الْمُوَجَّهِ، أَخْبَرَنِي أَبُو نَصْرٍ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ أَبِي الْخَطَّابِ السُّلَمِيُّ، وَكَانَ رَجُلًا صَالِحًا قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنِي عَلِيُّ بْنُ يُونُسَ، ثنا وَكِيعٌ قَالَ: " صَلَّيْتُ فِي مَسْجِدِ الْكُوفَةِ فَإِذَا أَبُو حَنِيفَةَ قَائِمٌ يُصَلِّي، وَابْنُ الْمُبَارَكِ إِلَى جَنْبِهِ يُصَلِّي، فَإِذَا عَبْدُ اللهِ يَرْفَعُ يَدَيْهِ كُلَّمَا رَكَعَ وَكُلَّمَا رَفَعَ، وَأَبُو حَنِيفَةَ لَا يَرْفَعُ، فَلَمَّا فَرَغُوا مِنَ الصَّلَاةِ قَالَ أَبُو حَنِيفَةَ لِعَبْدِ اللهِ: يَا أَبَا عَبْدَ الرَّحْمَنِ، رَأَيْتُكَ تُكْثِرُ رَفْعَ الْيَدَيْنِ، أَرَدْتَ أَنْ تَطِيرَ؟ قَالَ لَهُ عَبْدُ اللهِ: يَا أَبَا حَنِيفَةَ قَدْ رَأَيْتُكَ تَرْفَعُ يَدَيْكَ حِينَ افْتَتَحْتَ الصَّلَاةَ فَأَرَدْتَ أَنْ تَطِيرَ؟ فَسَكَتَ أَبُو حَنِيفَةَ " قَالَ وَكِيعٌ فَمَا رَأَيْتُ جَوَابًا أَحْضَرَ مِنْ جَوَابِ عَبْدِ اللهِ، لِأَبِي حَنِيفَةَ.
Waki' (may Allah have mercy on him) said: I prayed in the mosque of Kufah, and I saw the great Imam Abu Hanifah (may Allah have mercy on him) standing in prayer, but he was not raising his hands, while Abdullah bin al-Mubarak (may Allah have mercy on him) was praying beside him. Whenever Abdullah (may Allah have mercy on him) bowed and raised his head from bowing he raised his hands, and Abu Hanifah (may Allah have mercy on him) did not. When they had finished the prayer, Imam Abu Hanifah (may Allah have mercy on him) said to Abdullah (may Allah have mercy on him): "O Abu Abd al-Rahman! I see you raise your hands so much, as though you are about to fly." Abdullah bin al-Mubarak (may Allah have mercy on him) replied: "O Abu Hanifah! I saw you raise your hands at the beginning of the prayer; did you want to fly at that moment?" Hearing this, Abu Hanifah (may Allah have mercy on him) fell silent. Waki' (may Allah have mercy on him) said: I have never seen a readier reply from anyone than the reply of Abdullah (may Allah have mercy on him) to Abu Hanifah (may Allah have mercy on him).
