He saw the Messenger of Allah ﷺ raising his hands at the time of beginning the prayer and reciting takbir, and according to Hammam (the narrator), the hands were lifted opposite to ears. He (the Holy Prophet) then wrapped his hands in his cloth and placed his right hand over his left hand. And when he was about to bow down, he brought out his hands from the cloth, and then lifted them, and then recited takbir and bowed down, and when (he came back to the erect position) he recited:" Allah listened to him who praised Him." And when he prostrated, he prostrated between his two palms.  

أَنَّهُ رَأَى النَّبِيَّ ﷺ رَفَعَ يَدَيْهِ حِينَ دَخَلَ فِي الصَّلاَةِ كَبَّرَ وَصَفَ هَمَّامٌ حِيَالَ أُذُنَيْهِ ثُمَّ الْتَحَفَ بِثَوْبِهِ ثُمَّ وَضَعَ يَدَهُ الْيُمْنَى عَلَى الْيُسْرَى فَلَمَّا أَرَادَ أَنْ يَرْكَعَ أَخْرَجَ يَدَيْهِ مِنَ الثَّوْبِ ثُمَّ رَفَعَهُمَا ثُمَّ كَبَّرَ فَرَكَعَ فَلَمَّا قَالَ سَمِعَ اللَّهُ لِمَنْ حَمِدَهُ رَفَعَ يَدَيْهِ فَلَمَّا سَجَدَ سَجَدَ بَيْنَ كَفَّيْهِ  

[Machine] It is narrated that the Prophet (PBUH) used to raise his hands and say the takbeer when he entered the prayer. Then he would cover himself with his garment and place his right hand over his left. When he intended to bow, he would say "like this with his garment" and he would take out his hands, then raise them and say the takbeer, and then he would bow. When he intended to prostrate, his knees would touch the ground before his palms. And when he prostrated, he would place his forehead between his palms and keep his elbows away from his sides. Hammam said, "The most knowledgeable among us is that in the narration of Muhammad ibn Juhaadah, when he stood up, he would stand on his knees and rely on his thighs."  

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ «كَانَ إِذَا دَخَلَ فِي الصَّلَاةِ رَفَعَ يَدَيْهِ وَكَبَّرَ ثُمَّ الْتَحَفَ بِثَوْبِهِ ثُمَّ وَضَعَ يَدَهُ الْيُمْنَى عَلَى الْيُسْرَى فَلَمَّا أَرَادَ أَنْ يَرْكَعَ قَالَ هَكَذَا بِثَوْبِهِ وَأخْرَجَ يَدَيْهِ ثُمَّ رَفَعَهُمَا وَكَبَّرَ وَرَكَعَ فَلَمَّا أَرَادَ أَنْ يَسْجُدَ وَقَعَتْ رُكْبَتَاهُ عَلَى الْأَرْضِ قَبْلَ كَفَّيْهِ فَلَمَّا سَجَدَ وَضَعَ جَبْهَتَهُ بَيْنَ كَفَّيْهِ وَجَافَى عَنْ إِبْطَيْهِ» قَالَ هَمَّامٌ وَأَكْبَرُ عِلْمِي أَنَّ فِي حَدِيثِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ جُحَادَةَ فَإِذَا نَهَضَ نَهَضَ عَلَى رُكْبَتَيْهِ وَاعْتَمَدَ عَلَى فَخِذَيْهِ

أَنَّهُ رَأَى النَّبِيَّ ﷺ حِينَ دَخَلَ فِي الصَّلَاةِ كَبَّرَ قَالَ أَبُو عُثْمَانَ وَصَفَ هَمَّامٌ حِيَالَ أُذُنَيْهِ يَعْنِي رَفَعَ الْيَدَيْنِ ثُمَّ الْتَحَفَ بِثَوْبِهِ ثُمَّ وَضَعَ يَدَهُ الْيُمْنَى عَلَى يَدِهِ الْيُسْرَى فَلَمَّا أَرَادَ أَنْ يَرْكَعَ أَخْرَجَ يَدَيْهِ مِنَ الثَّوْبِ وَرَفَعَهُمَا فَكَبَّرَ فَلَمَّا قَالَ سَمِعَ اللهُ لِمَنْ حَمِدَهُ رَفَعَ يَدَيْهِ فَلَمَّا سَجَدَ سَجَدَ بَيْنَ كَفَّيْهِ
