وَأَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو الْحَسَنِ عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ الْمُقْرِئُ، أنبأ الْحَسَنُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ إِسْحَاقَ الْإِسْفِرَايِينِيُّ، ثنا يُوسُفُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ الْقَاضِي، ثنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ أَبِي بَكْرٍ، ثنا عَبَّادُ بْنُ عَبَّادٍ، ثنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَمْرٍو، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ الْحَارِثِ الْأَنْصَارِيِّ، عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُمَا قَالَ: " كُنْتُ أُصَلِّي مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ صَلَاةَ الظُّهْرِ فَآخُذُ قَبْضَةً مِنَ الْحَصَى فِي كَفِّي حَتَّى تَبْرُدَ وَأَضَعُهَا بِجَبْهَتِي إِذَا سَجَدْتُ مِنْ شِدَّةِ الْحَرِّ " قَالَ الشَّيْخُ رَحِمَهُ اللهُ: وَلَوْ جَازَ السُّجُودُ عَلَى ثَوْبٍ مُتَّصِلٍ بِهِ لَكَانَ ذَلِكَ أَسْهَلَ مِنْ تَبْرِيدِ الْحَصَا فِي الْكَفِّ وَوَضْعِهَا لِلسُّجُودِ عَلَيْهَا وَبِاللهِ التَّوْفِيقُ ".
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Jabir bin Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with them both): "I used to pray the Zuhr prayer with the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). I would take a handful of pebbles in my hand so that they would cool down, and I would put them at my place of prostration so that I could prostrate on them, protecting myself from the scorching heat."
Imam al-Bayhaqi (may Allah have mercy on him) says that if prostrating on a garment that is attached to one were permissible, that would have been easier than cooling pebbles in the hands and then placing them at the place of prostration.
