اُردوEn
حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ، حَدَّثَنَا اللَّيْثُ، عَنْ ابْنِ عَجْلَانَ، عَنْ سُمَيٍّ، عَنْ أَبِي صَالِحٍ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، قَالَ : اشْتَكَى بَعْضُ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مَشَقَّةَ السُّجُودِ عَلَيْهِمْ إِذَا تَفَرَّجُوا ، فَقَالَ : " اسْتَعِينُوا بِالرُّكَبِ " . قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى : هَذَا حَدِيثٌ غَرِيبٌ ، لَا نَعْرِفُهُ مِنْ حَدِيثِ أَبِي صَالِحٍ ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِلَّا مِنْ هَذَا الْوَجْهِ ، مِنْ حَدِيثِ اللَّيْثِ ، عَنْ ابْنِ عَجْلَانَ ، وَقَدْ رَوَى هَذَا الْحَدِيثَ سُفْيَانُ بْنُ عُيَيْنَةَ وَغَيْرُ وَاحِدٍ ، عَنْ سُمَيٍّ، عَنْ النُّعْمَانِ بْنِ أَبِي عَيَّاشٍ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ نَحْوَ هَذَا ، وَكَأَنَّ رِوَايَةَ هَؤُلَاءِ أَصَحُّ مِنْ رِوَايَةِ اللَّيْثِ .
´Abu Hurairah narrated:` "[Some of] the Companions of the Prophet complained [to the Prophet] about the hardship of the prostration on them, when they were so spread out, so he said: 'Use your knees.'"

That is, place your elbows on your knees so that the discomfort is lessened.
Note:
(This narration of Muhammad bin ‘Ajlan has been mentioned by narrators more reliable and trustworthy than him in a mursal form, and they have not mentioned Abu Hurairah. Therefore, this narration of his is weak. See: Da‘eef Sunan Abi Dawood: vol. 9, no. 832)
