Bayhaqi 2730 — Sitting on the left foot between the two prostrations

أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ، ثنا أَبُو الْعَبَّاسِ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ، ثنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ سِنَانٍ الْقَزَّازُ، ثنا أَبُو عَاصِمٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الْحَمِيدِ بْنِ جَعْفَرٍ، حَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَمْرِو بْنِ عَطَاءٍ قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ أَبَا حُمَيْدٍ السَّاعِدِيَّ، فِي عَشَرَةٍ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِيهِمْ أَبُو قَتَادَةَ فَذَكَرَ ⦗١٧١⦘ الْحَدِيثَ فِي صِفَةِ صَلَاةِ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ فِيهِ: " ثُمَّ يَهْوِي سَاجِدًا إِلَى الْأَرْضِ فَيُجَافِي يَدَيْهِ عَنْ جَنْبَيْهِ، ثُمَّ يَرْفَعُ رَأْسَهُ فَيَثْنِي رِجْلَهُ الْيُسْرَى فَيَقْعُدُ عَلَيْهَا ".
Muhammad bin Amr bin Ata (may Allah have mercy on him) said: I heard Abu Humayd al-Sa'idi (may Allah be pleased with him) speaking among a group of ten of the Companions of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), among whom was Abu Qatadah (may Allah be pleased with him). Then he mentioned the complete hadith about the manner of the prayer of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him); in it, it is also mentioned that he would go down to the ground in prostration and keep his hands (arms) away from his sides, then he would raise his head, fold his left leg and sit on it.
