ahmad:3660 – Yaḥyá > Zuhayr > Abū Isḥāq > ʿAbd al-Raḥman b. al-Aswad > al-Aswad And ʿAlqamah > ʿAbdullāh

[Machine] I saw the Messenger of Allah ﷺ raising his hands during every ruku' (bowing) and sujood (prostration), and while standing and sitting. He used to make the tasleem (saying of salaam) on his right side and left side, until the whiteness of his cheek or cheeks could be seen. And I saw Abu Bakr and Umar doing the same.  

أحمد:٣٦٦٠ – حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى عَنْ زُهَيْرٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو إِسْحَاقَ عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ الْأَسْوَدِ عَنِ الْأَسْوَدِ وَعَلْقَمَةَ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ قَالَ

أَنَا رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يُكَبِّرُ فِي كُلِّ خَفْضٍ وَرَفْعٍ وَقِيَامٍ وَقُعُودٍ وَيُسَلِّمُ عَنْ يَمِينِهِ وَعَنْ يَسَارِهِ حَتَّى يُرَى بَيَاضُ خَدَّيْهِ أَوْ خَدِّهِ وَرَأَيْتُ أَبَا بَكْرٍ وَعُمَرَ يَفْعَلَانِ ذَلِكَ
