[Machine] "Imarah means, may Allah disfigure these two hands, or these two hands. I saw the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , delivering a sermon and when he invoked, he would say like this and he raised his index finger alone."  

أحمد:١٧٢٢٤حَدَّثَنَا مُوسَى بْنُ دَاوُدَ حَدَّثَنَا زُهَيْرٌ عَنْ حُصَيْنِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ السُّلَمِيِّ قَالَ كُنْتُ إِلَى جَنْبِ عِمَارَةَ بْنِ رُوَيْبَةَ وَبِشْرٌ يَخْطُبُنَا فَلَمَّا دَعَا رَفَعَ يَدَيْهِ فَقَالَ

عِمَارَةُ يَعْنِي قَبَّحَ اللهُ هَاتَيْنِ الْيَدَيْنِ أَوْهَاتَيْنِالْيُدِيَّتَيْنِ رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ وَهُوَ يَخْطُبُ إِذَا دَعَا يَقُولُ هَكَذَا وَرَفَعَ السَّبَّابَةَ وَحْدَهَا
