[Machine] And the Prophet ﷺ used to do that, too.  

وَكَانَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ يَفْعَلُ ذَلِكَ وَكَذَلِكَ  

[Machine] About Ismail and what is meant by placing hands during prostration, not advancing them. And Allah knows best.  

عَنْ إِسْمَاعِيلَ وَالْمَقْصُودُ مِنْهُ وَضْعُ الْيَدَيْنِ فِي السُّجُودِ لَا التَّقْدِيمُ فِيهِمَا وَاللهُ تَعَالَى أَعْلَمُ  

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ was ordered to prostrate on seven parts, and he was forbidden from covering his hair or his clothes on the two palms, the two knees, the two feet, and the forehead. This is mentioned in the hadith of Abu Rabi'ah and in the hadith of Al-Abbas.  

أُمِرَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ أَنْ يَسْجُدَ عَلَى سَبْعَةِ أَعْظُمٍ وَنُهِيَ أَنْ يَكُفَّ شَعْرَهُ وَثِيَابَهُ الْكَفَّيْنِ وَالرُّكْبَتَيْنِ وَالْقَدَمَيْنِ وَالْجَبْهَةِ لَفْظُ حَدِيثِ أَبِي الرَّبِيعِ وَفِي حَدِيثِ الْعَبَّاسِ أُمِرَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ أَنْ يَسْجُدَ عَلَى سَبْعَةٍ وَنُهِيَ أَنْ يَكُفَّ شَعْرًا وَلَا ثَوْبًا أَوْ قَالَ ثِيَابَهُ  

when a servant (of Allah) prostrates himself, the seven limbs, i.e, his face, his palms, his knees and his feet prostrate along with him. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 891)   

أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ إِذَا سَجَدَ الْعَبْدُ سَجَدَ مَعَهُ سَبْعَةُ آرَابٍ وَجْهُهُ وَكَفَّاهُ وَرُكْبَتَاهُ وَقَدَمَاهُ  

[Machine] "He was in a council with his father, and he was one of the companions of the Prophet ﷺ. Abu Hurairah, Abu Usaid, and Abu Humaid Al-Sa'idi were also in the council. They were discussing prayer, so Abu Humaid said, "I will show you how the Messenger of Allah ﷺ prayed." They asked, "How?" He said, "I learned it from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ." They said, "Show us." So he got up to pray, and they watched him. He started by saying the takbeer, then he raised his hands towards his shoulders and repeated the takbeer for bowing. He raised his hands again until his hands were level with his knees, without covering his head or pointing with his fingers. Then he raised his head and said, "Allah listens to the one who praises Him. Our Lord, to You belongs all praise!" He raised his hands again, then said, "Allah is the Greatest," and prostrated, placing his forehead, knees, and feet on the ground. He remained in prostration for a while, then raised his head and said the takbeer. He sat down and placed one foot under him, and extended the other foot. Then he said the takbeer, prostrated again, and said the takbeer. This means he stood up without sitting in between the two prostrations. Then he repeated the same for the second unit of prayer. After the two units, he sat down and when he wanted to get up for the final standing, he said the takbeer and performed another two units of prayer. Then he concluded the prayer by saying the salaam on his right and left sides, saying, "Peace be upon you and the mercy of Allah." He said, "Ibn 'Isa also reported to me that one of the things he mentioned about sitting in the tashahhud is to place the left hand on the left thigh and the right hand on the right thigh, then to point with one finger and make supplication like this."  

أَنَّهُ كَانَ فِي مَجْلِسٍ فِيهِ أَبُوهُ وَكَانَ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ وَفِي الْمَجْلِسِ أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ وَأَبُو أُسَيْدٍ وَأَبُو حُمَيْدٍ السَّاعِدِيُّ مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ أَنَّهُمْ تَذَاكَرُوا الصَّلَاةَ فَقَالَ أَبُو حُمَيْدٍ أَنَا أَعْلَمُكُمْ بِصَلَاةِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ قَالُوا كَيْفَ؟ قَالَ اتَّبَعْتُ ذَلِكَ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ؟ قَالُوا فَأَرِنَا قَالَ فَقَامَ يُصَلِّي وَهُمْ يَنْظُرُونَ إِلَيْهِ فَبَدَأَ فَكَبَّرَ فَرَفَعَ يَدَيْهِ نَحْوَ الْمَنْكِبَيْنِ ثُمَّ كَبَّرَ لِلرُّكُوعِ فَرَفَعَ يَدَيْهِ أَيْضًا حَتَّى أَمْكَنَ يَدَيْهِ مِنْ رُكْبَتَيْهِ غَيْرَ مُقَنَّعٍ رَأْسَهُ وَلَا مُصَوِّبِهِ ثُمَّ رَفَعَ رَأْسَهُ فَقَالَ سَمِعَ اللهُ لِمَنْ حَمِدَهُ اللهُمَّ رَبَّنَا لَكَ الْحَمْدُ فَرَفَعَ يَدَيْهِ ثُمَّ قَالَ اللهُ أَكْبَرُ فَسَجَدَ فَانْتَصَبَ عَلَى كَفَّيْهِ وَرُكْبَتَيْهِ وَصُدُورِ قَدَمَيْهِ وَهُوَ سَاجِدٌ ثُمَّ كَبَّرَ فَجَلَسَ فَتَوَرَّكَ إِحْدَى قَدَمَيْهِ وَنَصَبَ قَدَمَهُ الْأُخْرَى ثُمَّ كَبَّرَ وَسَجَدَ ثُمَّ كَبَّرَ يَعْنِي فَقَامَ وَلَمْ يَتَوَرَّكْ ثُمَّ عَادَ فَرَكَعَ الرَّكْعَةَ الْأُخْرَى كَذَلِكَ ثُمَّ جَلَسَ بَعْدَ الرَّكْعَتَيْنِ حَتَّى إِذَا هُوَ أَرَادَ أَنْ يَنْهَضَ لِلْقِيَامِ قَامَ بِتَكْبِيرٍ ثُمَّ رَكَعَ الرَّكْعَتَيْنِ الْأُخْرَيَيْنِ ثُمَّ سَلَّمَ عَنْ يَمِينِهِ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكُمْ وَرَحْمَةُ اللهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَنْ شِمَالِهِ أَيْضًا السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكُمْ وَرَحْمَةُ اللهِ قَالَ وَحَدَّثَنِي عِيسَى أَنَّ مِمَّا حَدَّثَهُ أَيْضًا فِي الْجُلُوسِ فِي التَّشَهُّدِ أَنْ يَضَعَ الْيُسْرَى عَلَى فَخِذِهِ الْيُسْرَى وَيَضَعَ الْيُمْنَى عَلَى فَخِذِهِ الْيُمْنَى ثُمَّ يُشِيرَ بِالدُّعَاءِ بِإِصْبَعٍ وَاحِدَةٍ هَكَذَا  

[Machine] I was in a gathering with the companions of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and they were discussing his prayer. Abu Humaid As-Sa'idi said, "I know the prayer of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ better than any of you. It was my habit to observe the Messenger of Allah ﷺ when he stood up for prayer. He would say the takbir, then recite (the Quran). When he bowed, he would say the takbir and place his hands on his knees, separating his fingers. Then he would straighten up his back, not keeping his head bowed nor looking up. When he raised his head, he would stand straight until all his bones returned to their positions. When he prostrated, he would rest on his palms, knees, and the tips of his toes, and he would be at peace while prostrating. When he raised his head, he would be at peace while sitting. When he sat between the two prostrations, he would put his left foot under his buttocks and keep his right foot erect. When he sat in the fourth Rak'ah, he put his left hip on the ground and positioned his feet to one side. Shaikh (Ibn Bazz) said, "In a narration from Abbas bin Sahl from Abu Humaid in this Hadith, he put his hands, knees, and the tips of his toes on the ground when prostrating."  

كُنْتُ فِي مَجْلِسٍ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَتَذَاكَرُوا صَلَاتَهُ فَقَالَ أَبُو حُمَيْدٍ السَّاعِدِيُّ أَنَا أَعْلَمُكُمْ بِصَلَاةِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ وَكَانَتْ مِنْ هِمَّتِي رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ إِذَا قَامَ إِلَى الصَّلَاةِ كَبَّرَ ثُمَّ قَرَأَ فَإِذَا رَكَعَ كَبَّرَ وَوَضَعَ كَفَّيْهِ عَلَى رُكْبَتَيْهِ وَفَرَّجَ بَيْنَ أَصَابِعِهِ ثُمَّ هَصَرَ ظَهْرَهُ غَيْرَ مُقَنِّعٍ رَأْسَهُ وَلَا صَافِحًا بِخَدِّهِ فَإِذَا رَفَعَ قَائِمًا قَامَ حَتَّى يَعُودَ كُلُّ عُضْوٍ إِلَى مَكَانِهِ فَإِذَا سَجَدَ أَمْكَنَ الْأَرْضَ بِكَفَّيْهِ وَرُكْبَتَيْهِ وَصُدُورِ قَدَمَيْهِ ثُمَّ اطْمَأَنَّ سَاجِدًا فَإِذَا رَفَعَ رَأْسَهُ اطْمَأَنَّ جَالِسًا فَإِذَا قَعَدَ فِي الرَّكْعَتَيْنِ قَعَدَ عَلَى بَطْنِ قَدَمِهِ الْيُسْرَى وَنَصَبَ الْيُمْنَى فَإِذَا كَانَتِ الرَّابِعَةُ أَفْضَى بِوَرِكِهِ الْيُسْرَى إِلَى الْأَرْضِ وَأَخْرَجَ قَدَمَيْهِ مِنْ نَاحِيَةٍ وَاحِدَةٍ قَالَ الشَّيْخُ رَحِمَهُ اللهُ وَفِي رِوَايَةِ عَبَّاسِ بْنِ سَهْلٍ عَنْ أَبِي حُمَيْدٍ فِي هَذَا الْحَدِيثِ فَانْتَصَبَ عَلَى كَفَّيْهِ وَرُكْبَتَيْهِ وَصُدُورِ قَدَمَيْهِ فِي السُّجُودِ  

[Machine] On the authority of the Prophet ﷺ who said, "When any one of you prostrates (in prayer), then let him place his hands (on the ground), and when he raises (from prostration), then let him raise them (from the ground), for indeed the hands prostrate just as the face does." This was narrated by Isma'il ibn 'Ulayyah from Ayyub, who said, "He raised them." It was also narrated by Hammad ibn Zaid from Ayyub, who said, "He raised them." And it was narrated by Ibn Abi Layla from Nafi', who said, "He raised (them)."  

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ إِذَا سَجَدَ أَحَدُكُمْ فَلْيَضَعْ يَدَيْهِ فَإِذَا رَفَعَ فَلْيَرْفَعْهُمَا فَإِنَّ الْيَدَيْنِ تَسْجُدَانِ كَمَا يَسْجُدُ الْوَجْهُ كَذَا قَالَ وَرَوَاهُ إِسْمَاعِيلُ ابْنُ عُلَيَّةَ عَنْ أَيُّوبَ فَقَالَ رَفَعَهُ وَرَوَاهُ حَمَّادُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ عَنْ أَيُّوبَ مَوْقُوفًا عَلَى ابْنِ عُمَرَ وَرَوَاهُ ابْنُ أَبِي لَيْلَى عَنْ نَافِعٍ مَرْفُوعًا  

[Machine] He was sitting with the Messenger of Allah when a man came and entered the mosque and prayed. When he finished his prayer, he greeted the Messenger of Allah and the people. The Messenger of Allah said to him, "Peace be upon you, go back and pray, for you have not prayed." And he mentioned the hadith about teaching the Prophet to pray it. In it, he said, "Then he makes takbeer, prostrates, and places his forehead on the ground until his joints are relaxed and aligned."  

أَنَّهُ كَانَ جَالِسًا عِنْدَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ إِذْ جَاءَ رَجُلٌ فَدَخَلَ الْمَسْجِدَ فَصَلَّى فَلَمَّا قَضَى صَلَاتَهُ جَاءَ فَسَلَّمَ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ وَعَلَى الْقَوْمِ فَقَالَ لَهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ وَعَلَيْكَ السَّلَامُ ارْجِعْ فَصَلِّ فَإِنَّكَ لَمْ تُصَلِّ وَذَكَرَ الْحَدِيثَ فِي تَعْلِيمِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ إِيَّاهُ قَالَ فِيهِ ثُمَّ يُكَبِّرُ فَيَسْجُدُ فَيُمَكِّنُ جَبْهَتَهُ مِنَ الْأَرْضِ حَتَّى تَطْمَئِنَّ مَفَاصِلُهُ وَتَسْتَوِيَ  

[Machine] "The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'I have been commanded to prostrate on seven parts: the forehead, and he pointed with his hand to his nose, both hands, both knees, and the tips of the feet, without folding the clothes or hair.' In another narration by Mu'alla, it is mentioned that 'I do not tuck up the garment or the hair.' Bukhari also narrated it in Sahih from Mu'alla bin Asad, except that he said, 'I do not tuck up the garment.' Muslim narrated it from another angle, from Wahib, in a similar manner."  

عَنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ أُمِرْتُ أَنْ أَسْجُدَ عَلَى سَبْعَةِ أَعْظُمٍ عَلَى الْجَبْهَةِ وَأَشَارَ بِيَدِهِ إِلَى أَنْفِهِ وَالْيَدَيْنِ وَالرُّكْبَتَيْنِ وَأَطْرَافِ الْقَدَمَيْنِ وَلَا نَكُفَّ الثِّيَابَ وَلَا الشَّعْرَ وَفِي حَدِيثِ مُعَلًّى وَلَا أَكُفَّ الثَّوْبَ وَلَا الشَّعْرَ وَرَوَاهُ الْبُخَارِيُّ فِي الصَّحِيحِ عَنْ مُعَلَّى بْنِ أَسَدٍ إِلَّا أَنَّهُ قَالَ وَلَا نَكْفِتَ وَأَخْرَجَهُ مُسْلِمٌ مِنْ وَجْهٍ آخَرَ عَنْ وُهَيْبٍ كَذَلِكَ  

[Machine] "That the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'I have been commanded to prostrate on seven (body parts), and not to fold the hair (on the forehead), nor the garments (on the forehead), and (those seven body parts are) the forehead, the nose, the two hands, the two knees, and the two feet.'"  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ أُمِرْتُ أَنْ أَسْجُدَ عَلَى سَبْعَةٍ وَلَا أَكُفَّ الشَّعَرَ وَلَا الثِّيَابَ الْجَبْهَةِ وَالْأَنْفِ وَالْيَدَيْنِ وَالرُّكْبَتَيْنِ وَالْقَدَمَيْنِ  

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ was commanded to prostrate from seven parts of his body: his hands, knees, fingertips, forehead. He was forbidden to wipe his hair and clothes. Sufyan said, and Ibn Tawus added, that he placed his hand on his forehead, then commanded it to be placed on his nose until it reached the tip of his nose. My father used to count this as one.  

أُمِرَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ أَنْ يَسْجُدَ مِنْهُ عَلَى سَبْعَةٍ يَدَيْهِ وَرُكْبَتَيْهِ وَأَطْرَافِ أَصَابِعِهِ وَجَبْهَتِهِ وَنُهِيَ أَنْ يَكْفِتَ مِنْهُ الشَّعْرَ وَالثِّيَابَ قَالَ سُفْيَانُ وَزَادَ ابْنُ طَاوُسٍ فَوَضَعَ يَدَهُ عَلَى جَبْهَتِهِ ثُمَّ أَمَرَّ بِهَا عَلَى أَنْفِهِ حَتَّى بَلَغَ بِهَا طَرَفَ أَنْفِهِ قَالَ وَكَانَ أَبِي يَعُدُّ هَذَا وَاحِدًا  

[Machine] The sheikh, may Allah have mercy on him, and in the narration of Sufyan, it does not indicate that mentioning the nose in the hadith is from the interpretation of Tawus, and Muslim has included a narration of Sufyan from Ibn Tawus in Sahih in a summarized form, without the interpretation.  

الشَّيْخُ رَحِمَهُ اللهُ وَفِي رِوَايَةِ سُفْيَانَ مَا دَلَّ عَلَى أَنَّ ذِكْرَ الْأَنْفِ فِي الْحَدِيثِ مِنْ تَفْسِيرِ طَاوُسٍ وَقَدْ أَخْرَجَ مُسْلِمٌ حَدِيثَ سُفْيَانَ عَنِ ابْنِ طَاوُسٍ فِي الصَّحِيحِ مُخْتَصَرًا دُونَ التَّفْسِيرِ  

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ was commanded to prostrate from seven points. He said, meaning Ibn Maysarah, "O Abu Abdur Rahman, what do you think about the nose?" He said, "It is the best part."  

أُمِرَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ أَنْ يَسْجُدَ مِنْهُ عَلَى سَبْعَةٍ قَالَ يَعْنِي ابْنَ مَيْسَرَةَ قُلْتُ يَا أَبَا عَبْدَ الرَّحْمَنِ أَرَأَيْتَ الْأَنْفَ قَالَ هُوَ خَيْرُهُ  

[Machine] He said: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to observe i'tikaf (seclusion for worship) during the last ten nights of Ramadan. He mentioned a hadith in which the Prophet ﷺ said, "I saw this night and then forgot it. I saw myself prostrating in its morning in water and clay." Abu Sa'id said, "I saw the traces of water and clay on the Messenger of Allah's ﷺ eyes, nose, and forehead on the morning of the twenty-first night."  

أَنَّهُ قَالَ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَعْتَكِفُ فَذَكَرَ الْحَدِيثَ وَفِيهِ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ قَدْ رَأَيْتُ هَذِهِ اللَّيْلَةَ ثُمَّ أُنْسِيتُهَا وَقَدْ رَأَيْتُنِي أَسْجُدُ صَبِيحَتَهَا فِي مَاءٍ وَطِينٍ قَالَ أَبُو سَعِيدٍ فَأَبْصَرَتْ عَيْنَايَ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ وَعَلَى أَنْفِهِ وَجَبْهَتِهِ أَثَرُ الْمَاءِ وَالطِّينِ صَبِيحَةَ إِحْدَى وَعِشْرِينَ  

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ saw a man praying and noticed that when he prostrated, his nose did not touch the ground. The Prophet ﷺ said, "There is no prayer for one whose nose does not touch the ground, as long as the forehead touches it." Abu Bakr ibn al-Harith al-Faqih narrated to us that Ali ibn Umar al-Hafidh informed us that Abdullah ibn Sulaiman ibn al-Ash'ath narrated to us that al-Jarrah ibn Makhlad narrated to us that Abu Qutaybah mentioned the hadith of Shu'bah and al-Thawri, each one of them separately mentioning it in its meaning. Then Abu Bakr said, Abdullah ibn Sulaiman ibn al-Ash'ath did not narrate it from Sufyan and Shu'bah except through Abu Qutaybah, and the correct narration is from Asim, from Ikrimah, as Mursal.  

النَّبِيَّ ﷺ رَأَى رَجُلًا يُصَلِّي فَإِذَا سَجَدَ لَمْ يَمَسَّ أَنْفُهُ الْأَرْضَ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ لَا صَلَاةَ لِمَنْ لَا يَمَسُّ أَنْفُهُ الْأَرْضَ مَا يَمَسُّ الْجَبِينُ 2653 وَأَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ الْحَارِثِ الْفَقِيهُ أنبأ عَلِيُّ بْنُ عُمَرَ الْحَافِظُ ثنا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ بْنِ الْأَشْعَثِ ثنا الْجَرَّاحُ بْنُ مَخْلَدٍ ثنا أَبُو قُتَيْبَةَ فَذَكَرَ حَدِيثَ شُعْبَةَ وَالثَّوْرِيِّ كُلَّ وَاحِدٍ مِنْهُمَا عَلَى الِانْفِرَادِ بِمَعْنَاهُ ثُمَّ قَالَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ بْنِ الْأَشْعَثِ لَمْ يُسْنِدْهُ عَنْ سُفْيَانَ وَشُعْبَةَ إِلَّا أَبُو قُتَيْبَةَ وَالصَّوَابُ عَنْ عَاصِمٍ عَنْ عِكْرِمَةَ مُرْسَلًا  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ passed by a man or a woman who did not place their nose on the ground when they prostrated. He said, "A prayer is not accepted if the nose does not touch the ground, like the forehead does." And so,  

مَرَّ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ بِرَجُلٍ أَوِ امْرَأَةٍ لَا يَضَعُ أَنْفَهُ إِذَا سَجَدَ فَقَالَ لَا تُقْبَلُ صَلَاةٌ لَا يُصِيبُ الْأَنْفُ مِنَ الْأَرْضِ مَا يُصِيبُ الْجَبِينُ وَكَذَلِكَ  

[Machine] "He said, when you prostrate, place your nose on the ground along with your forehead, as mentioned in the hadith of As-Saffar."  

أَنَّهُ قَالَ إِذَا سَجَدْتَ فَضَعْ أَنْفَكَ عَلَى الْأَرْضِ مَعَ جَبْهَتِكَ وَفِي حَدِيثِ الصَّفَّارِ ثُمَّ جَبْهَتَكَ  

[Machine] When any of you prostrate, they should place their nose on the ground, for you have been commanded to do so.  

إِذَا سَجَدَ أَحَدُكُمْ فَلْيَضَعْ أَنْفَهُ عَلَى الْأَرْضِ فَإِنَّكُمْ قَدْ أُمِرْتُمْ بِذَلِكَ وَكَذَلِكَ  

[Machine] Whoever complained to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ about the intensity of hunger on his forehead and his hands, and he did not empathize with us.  

شَكَوْنَا إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ شِدَّةَ الرَّمْضَاءِ فِي جِبَاهِنَا وَأَكُفِّنَا فَلَمْ يُشْكِنَا  

[Machine] I used to pray the Dhuhr prayer with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , and I would take a handful of pebbles in my hand until they cooled down, and I would place them on my forehead when I prostrated due to the intensity of the heat. The sheikh (may Allah have mercy on him) said, "Even if it was permissible to prostrate on a garment that was connected to the pebbles, it would be easier than cooling the pebbles in the hand and placing them to prostrate on them. And with Allah is the success.  

كُنْتُ أُصَلِّي مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ صَلَاةَ الظُّهْرِ فَآخُذُ قَبْضَةً مِنَ الْحَصَى فِي كَفِّي حَتَّى تَبْرُدَ وَأَضَعُهَا بِجَبْهَتِي إِذَا سَجَدْتُ مِنْ شِدَّةِ الْحَرِّ قَالَ الشَّيْخُ رَحِمَهُ اللهُ وَلَوْ جَازَ السُّجُودُ عَلَى ثَوْبٍ مُتَّصِلٍ بِهِ لَكَانَ ذَلِكَ أَسْهَلَ مِنْ تَبْرِيدِ الْحَصَا فِي الْكَفِّ وَوَضْعِهَا لِلسُّجُودِ عَلَيْهَا وَبِاللهِ التَّوْفِيقُ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ saw a man prostrating with his forehead touching the ground while he had wrapped his head. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ felt sorry for his forehead. In another narration by Muawiya ibn Salih from Ayyad ibn Abdullah Al-Qurashi, he said that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saw a man prostrating on the edge of his turban and gestured with his hand, indicating for him to raise his turban and gestured towards his forehead. And this appointed one is a witness for the righteous one.  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ رَأَى رَجُلًا يَسْجُدُ بِجَنْبِهِ وَقَدِ اعْتَمَّ عَلَى جَبْهَتِهِ فَحَسَرَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ عَنْ جَبْهَتِهِ وَفِيمَا رَوَى مُعَاوِيَةُ بْنُ صَالِحٍ عَنْ عِيَاضِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ الْقُرَشِيِّ قَالَ رَأَى رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ رَجُلًا يَسْجُدُ عَلَى كَوْرِ عِمَامَتِهِ فَأَوْمَأَ بِيَدِهِ ارْفَعْ عِمَامَتَكَ وَأَوْمَأَ إِلَى جَبْهَتِهِ وَهَذَا الْمُرْسَلُ شَاهِدٌ لِمُرْسَلٍ صَالِحٍ  

[Machine] "From his forehead."  

عَنْ جَبْهَتِهِ  

[Machine] Abu Abdullah informed us that Abu Bakr reported to us that Abdullah narrated to us, who narrated from Hannad, who narrated from Abda, from Ubaidullah ibn Umar, from Nafi, that Ibn Umar, when he performed Sujood (prostration) with the turban on his head, he would raise it until he placed his forehead on the ground.  

أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ أنبأ أَبُو بَكْرٍ أنبأ عَبْدُ اللهِ ثنا هَنَّادٌ ثنا عَبْدَةُ عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ عَنْ نَافِعٍ أَنَّ ابْنَ عُمَرَ كَانَ إِذَا سَجَدَ وَعَلَيْهِ الْعِمَامَةُ يَرْفَعُهَا حَتَّى يَضَعَ جَبْهَتَهُ بِالْأَرْضِ  

[Machine] And Abu Abdullah informed us that Abu Bakr narrated to us that Abdullah narrated to us from Hanaad who narrated from Waki' from Sakan ibn Abi Kareemah from Muhammad ibn Ubada from Mahmoud ibn al-Rabi' from Ubada ibn al-Samit that whenever he got up to pray, he would lower his turban from his forehead.  

وَأَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ أنبأ أَبُو بَكْرٍ أنبأ عَبْدُ اللهِ ثنا هَنَّادٌ ثنا وَكِيعٌ عَنْ سَكَنِ بْنِ أَبِي كَرِيمَةَ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عُبَادَةَ عَنْ مَحْمُودِ بْنِ الرَّبِيعِ عَنْ عُبَادَةَ بْنِ الصَّامِتِ أَنَّهُ كَانَ إِذَا قَامَ إِلَى الصَّلَاةِ حَسَرَ الْعِمَامَةَ عَنْ جَبْهَتِهِ  

We used to say (the noonprayer) with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ in the intense heat, but when someone amongst us found it hard to place his forehead on the ground, he spread his cloth and prostrated on it. (Using translation from Muslim 620)   

كُنَّا إِذَا صَلَّيْنَا مَعَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَلَمْ يَسْتَطِعْ أَحَدُنَا أَنْ يُمَكِّنَ جَبْهَتَهُ مِنَ الْأَرْضِ مِنْ شِدَّةِ الْحَرِّ طَرَحَ ثَوْبَهُ ثُمَّ سَجَدَ عَلَيْهِ  

[Machine] When we used to pray with the Prophet, ﷺ , one of us would place the edge of the garment in the place of prostration because of the intensity of the heat.  

كُنَّا إِذَا صَلَّيْنَا مَعَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَيَضَعُ أَحَدُنَا طَرَفَ الثَّوْبِ مِنْ شِدَّةِ الْحَرِّ مَكَانَ السُّجُودِ  

we used to pray along with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ in intense heat. When any of us could not rest his face on bare ground while prostrating due to intense heat he spread his cloth and would prostrate on it. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 660)   

كُنَّا نُصَلِّي مَعَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فِي شِدَّةِ الْحَرِّ فَإِذَا لَمْ يَسْتَطِعْ أَحَدُنَا أَنْ يُمَكِّنَ جَبْهَتَهُ مِنَ الْأَرْضِ بَسَطَ ثَوْبَهُ فَسَجَدَ عَلَيْهِ  

[Machine] Abu Amr Al-Adibi informed us that Abu Bakr Al-Isma'iliy informed us that Abu Ya'la narrated to us, who narrated from Shurayh bin Yunus, who narrated from Bishr bin Al-Mufaddal, who mentioned its chain of narrators except that he said in its text: "We used to pray with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ in extreme heat, and one of us would take a handful of pebbles in his hand, and when it cooled down, he would place it on the ground and prostrate on it." Sheikh Abu Bakr said, "These two hadiths were narrated by Bishr bin Al-Mufaddal, one of them regarding the garment and the other regarding the pebbles."  

أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَمْرٍو الْأَدِيبُ أنبأ أَبُو بَكْرٍ الْإِسْمَاعِيلِيُّ أنبأ أَبُو يَعْلَى ثنا شُرَيْحُ بْنُ يُونُسَ ثنا بِشْرُ بْنُ الْمُفَضَّلِ فَذَكَرَ إِسْنَادَهُ إِلَّا أَنَّهُ قَالَ فِي مَتْنِهِ كُنَّا نُصَلِّي مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فِي شِدَّةِ الْحَرِّ فَيَأْخُذُ أَحَدُنَا الْحَصْبَاءَ فِي يَدِهِ فَإِذَا بَرَدَ وَضَعَهُ وَسَجَدَ عَلَيْهِ قَالَ الشَّيْخُ أَبُو بَكْرٍ هَذَانِ حَدِيثَانِ رَوَاهُمَا بِشْرُ بْنُ الْمُفَضَّلِ أَحَدُهُمَا فِي الثَّوْبِ وَالْآخَرُ فِي الْحَصْبَاءِ وَقَدْ  

[Machine] The companions of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to prostrate with their hands on their clothes. And a man among them would prostrate on his turban. The first narration suggests that what is meant is a separate garment from it, and this suggests that the man intended to prostrate on his turban and forehead. However, it is more cautious to prostrate for the purpose of prayer. And with Allah is the success.  

كَانَ أَصْحَابُ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ يَسْجُدُونَ وَأَيْدِيهِمْ فِي ثِيَابِهِمْ وَيَسْجُدُ الرَّجُلُ مِنْهُمْ عَلَى عِمَامَتِهِ وَالْحَدِيثُ الْأَوَّلُ يَحْتَمِلُ أَنْ يَكُونَ الْمُرَادُ بِهِ ثَوْبًا مُنْفَصِلًا عَنْهُ وَهَذَا يَحْتَمِلُ أَنْ يَكُونَ أَرَادَ يَسْجُدُ الرَّجُلُ مِنْهُمْ عَلَى عِمَامَتِهِ وَجَبْهَتِهِ وَالِاحْتِيَاطُ لِغَرَضِ السُّجُودِ أَوْلَى وَبِاللهِ التَّوْفِيقُ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ ordered to place the hands and erect the feet during prayer.  

أَمَرَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ بِوَضْعِ الْكَفَّيْنِ وَنَصْبِ الْقَدَمَيْنِ فِي الصَّلَاةِ  

[Machine] I heard Al-Bara' ibn 'Azib narrating that the Prophet ﷺ used to prostrate on the palms of his hands.  

سَمِعْتُ الْبَرَاءَ بْنَ عَازِبٍ يَقُولُ كَانَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ يَسْجُدُ عَلَى أَلْيَتَيِ الْكَفِّ  

[Machine] If one of you prostrates, then let them prostrate upon the palm and the wording should be directed towards the hollower portion of the elbow.  

إِذَا سَجَدَ أَحَدُكُمْ فَلْيَسْجُدْ عَلَى أَلْيَةِ الْكَفِّ وَاللَّفْظُ لِلْحَوْضِيِّ  

[Machine] We complained to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ about the intensity of the heat on our foreheads and wrists, but he did not complain.  

شَكَوْنَا إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ شِدَّةَ الْحَرِّ فِي جِبَاهِنَا وَأَكُفِّنَا فَلَمْ يُشْكِنَا  

[Machine] Use this translation for the passage: "Nafi' and I saw him on a very cold day, and he indeed took his hands out from under his cloak and placed them on the gravel."  

نَافِعٌ وَلَقَدْ رَأَيْتُهُ فِي يَوْمٍ شَدِيدِ الْبَرْدِ وَإِنَّهُ لَيُخْرِجُ كَفَّيْهِ مِنْ تَحْتِ بُرْنُسٍ لَهُ حَتَّى يَضَعَهُمَا عَلَى الْحَصْبَاءِ  

[Machine] "Abdullah ibn Umar used to say, whoever places his forehead on the ground should place his hands on which his forehead is placed. Then when he raises his forehead, he should raise them (his hands) as well, for indeed the hands prostrate as the face prostrates."  

أَنَّ عَبْدَ اللهِ بْنَ عُمَرَ كَانَ يَقُولُ مَنْ وَضَعَ جَبْهَتَهُ بِالْأَرْضِ فَلْيَضَعْ كَفَّيْهِ عَلَى الَّذِي يَضَعُ عَلَيْهِ جَبْهَتَهُ ثُمَّ إِذَا رَفَعَ فَلْيَرْفَعْهُمَا فَإِنَّ الْيَدَيْنِ تَسْجُدَانِ كَمَا يَسْجُدُ الْوَجْهُ  

[Machine] Abu Ubaid and the tall, dark-skinned young man with long, curly hair. And this is transmitted and narrated to us from Ibrahim al-Nakha'i that he said, "They used to pray while wearing their mantles, shawls, and turbans without uncovering their hands." And it has been narrated in a sound Hadith in its chain of transmission that some of the narrators are weak.  

أَبُو عُبَيْدٍ وَالْمُسْتُقَةُ الْفَرْوُ الطَّوِيلُ الْكُمَّيْنِ وَهَذَا مُرْسَلٌ وَرُوِّينَا عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ النَّخَعِيِّ أَنَّهُ قَالَ كَانُوا يُصَلُّونَ فِي مَسَاتِقِهِمْ وَبَرَانِسِهِمْ وَطَيَالِسِهِمْ مَا يُخْرِجُونَ أَيْدِيَهُمْ وَقَدْ رُوِيَ فِيهِ حَدِيثٌ مُسْنَدٌ فِي إِسْنَادِهِ بَعْضُ الضَّعْفِ  

[Machine] That the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , stood to pray in the Mosque of Bani Abd al-Ashhal and he had a wrapped garment on him, he placed his hand on it to protect himself from the cold of the floor, and it was narrated with a weak chain of narration.  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَامَ يُصَلِّي فِي مَسْجِدِ بَنِي عَبْدِ الْأَشْهَلِ وَعَلَيْهِ كِسَاءٌ مُلْتَفٌّ بِهِ يَضَعُ يَدَهُ عَلَيْهِ يَقِيهِ بَرْدَ الْحَصَا وَرُوِيَ بِإِسْنَادٍ آخَرَ ضَعِيفٍ  

[Machine] I saw the Messenger of Allah ﷺ praying in a white cloak on a cool morning, he would protect himself from the cold of the ground with the cloak in his hands and feet.  

رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يُصَلِّي فِي كِسَاءٍ أَبْيَضَ فِي غَدَاةٍ بَارِدَةٍ يَتَّقِي بِالْكِسَاءِ بَرْدَ الْأَرْضِ بِيَدِهِ وَرِجْلِهِ  

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ was commanded to prostrate on seven bones, without folding his garment or letting his hair touch the ground.  

أُمِرَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ أَنْ يَسْجُدَ عَلَى سَبْعَةِ أَعْظُمٍ وَلَا يَكُفَّ ثَوْبًا وَلَا شَعْرًا  

[Machine] I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saying, "Indeed, the example of this is like that of one who prays while his hands are tied." This hadith was narrated by Muslim in his Sahih from 'Amr bin Sawwad from Ibn Wahb.  

سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ إِنَّمَا مَثَلُ هَذَا مَثَلُ الَّذِي يُصَلِّي وَهُوَ مَكْتُوفٌ وَرَوَاهُ مُسْلِمٌ فِي الصَّحِيحِ عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ سَوَّادٍ عَنِ ابْنِ وَهْبٍ  

[Machine] Abu Rafi`, the servant of the Prophet ﷺ , passed by Hasan ibn Ali. Hasan was standing in prayer, with his fingernails digging into his cheeks. Abu Rafi` loosened them, and Hasan turned to him angrily. Abu Rafi` said, "Continue with your prayer and don't get angry, for I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say that this is the seat of Satan. It means digging one's fingernails into one's cheeks." This narration is reported by Hajjaj ibn Muhammad and mentioned by Abdul Razzaq from Sa`id. And it is narrated that Umar, Ali, Hudhaifah, and Abdullah ibn Mas`ud disliked doing this.  

أَبَا رَافِعٍ مَوْلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ مَرَّ بِحَسَنِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ وَحَسَنٌ يُصَلِّي قَائِمًا قَدْ غَرَزَ ضَفْرَتَيْهِ فِي قَفَاهُ فَحَلَّهُمَا أَبُو رَافِعٍ فَالْتَفَتَ حَسَنٌ إِلَيْهِ مُغْضَبًا فَقَالَ أَبُو رَافِعٍ أَقْبِلْ عَلَى صَلَاتِكَ وَلَا تَغْضَبْ فَإِنِّي سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ ذَلِكَ كِفْلُ الشَّيْطَانِ يَقُولُ مَقْعَدُ الشَّيْطَانِ يَعْنِي مَغْرِزَ ضَفْرَتَيْهِ لَفْظُ حَدِيثِ حَجَّاجِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ وَفِي حَدِيثِ عَبْدِ الرَّزَّاقِ عَنْ سَعِيدٍ وَقَالَ هِيَ كِفْلُ الشَّيْطَانِ يَعْنِي مَقْعَدَ الشَّيْطَانِ وَرُوِّينَا فِي كَرَاهِيَةِ ذَلِكَ عَنْ عُمَرَ وَعَلِيٍّ وَحُذَيْفَةَ وَعَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ ؓ  

[Machine] That the Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to say in his bowing, "Subhanarabbial 'aazhim" (Glory be to my Lord, the Most Great), repeatedly. And when he raised his head from bowing, he said, "Sami'allahu liman hamidah, Rabbana wa lakal hamd" (Allah hears whoever praises Him, our Lord, and to You is all praise). And when he prostrated, he said, "Subhanarabbial 'a'la" (Glory be to my Lord, the Most High), repeatedly. And he used to say when he raised his head from prostration, "Rabbighfirli" (My Lord, forgive me).  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ كَانَ يَقُولُ فِي رُكُوعِهِ سُبْحَانَ رَبِّيَ الْعَظِيمِ يُرَدِّدُهَا فَإِذَا رَفَعَ رَأْسَهُ مِنَ الرُّكُوعِ قَالَ سَمِعَ اللهُ لِمَنْ حَمِدَهُ رَبَّنَا وَلَكَ الْحَمْدُ فَإِذَا سَجَدَ قَالَ سُبْحَانَ رَبِّيَ الْأَعْلَى يُرَدِّدُهَا وَكَانَ يَقُولُ إِذَا رَفَعَ رَأْسَهُ مِنَ السُّجُودِ رَبِّ اغْفِرْ لِي  

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ used to frequently say in his bowing and prostration: "Glory be to You, O Allah, our Lord, and praise be to You. O Allah, forgive me." He used to recite the Quran regularly.  

كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يُكْثِرُ أَنْ يَقُولَ فِي رُكُوعِهِ وَسُجُودِهِ سُبْحَانَكَ اللهُمَّ رَبَّنَا وَبِحَمْدِكَ اللهُمَّ اغْفِرْ لِي يَتَأَوَّلُ الْقُرْآنَ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to recite during his prostration, "Subbuhun Quddusun, Rabbu-l-Mala'ikati wa-ruh."  

رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ كَانَ يَقُولُ فِي سُجُودِهِ سُبُّوحٌ قُدُّوسٌ رَبُّ الْمَلَائِكَةِ وَالرُّوحِ  

[Machine] That the Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to, when he stood up for prayer, mention the praises of Allah and supplicate during it. And when he prostrated, he would say: "O Allah, to You I have prostrated, and in You I have believed, and to You I have submitted. My face has prostrated to the One who created it, and fashioned it, and opened its hearing and sight. Blessed is Allah, the Best of creators."  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ كَانَ إِذَا قَامَ فِي الصَّلَاةِ فَذَكَرَ الْحَدِيثَ وَفِيهِ فَإِذَا سَجَدَ قَالَ اللهُمَّ لَكَ سَجَدْتُ وَبِكَ آمَنْتُ وَلَكَ أَسْلَمْتُ وَعَلَيْكَ تَوَكَّلْتُ سَجَدَ وَجْهِي لِلَّذِي خَلَقَهُ وَصَوَّرَهُ وَشَقَّ سَمْعَهُ وَبَصَرَهُ فَتَبَارَكَ اللهُ أَحْسَنُ الْخَالِقِينَ  

"The Messenger of Allah ﷺ drew aside the curtain when he had a cloth wrapped around his head during his final illness, and said: 'O Allah, I have conveyed (the Message)' three times. 'There is nothing left of the features of Prophethood except a good dream that a person sees or is seen by others for him. But I have been forbidden to recite the Qur'an when bowing and prostrating, so when you bow, then glorify your Lord and when you prostrate, then strive hard in supplication, for it is more deserving of a response.'" (Using translation from Nasāʾī 1120)   

كَشَفَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ السِّتْرَ وَرَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ مَعْصُوبٌ فِي مَرَضِهِ الَّذِي مَاتَ فِيهِ فَقَالَ اللهُمَّ هَلْ بَلَّغْتُ ثَلَاثَ مَرَّاتٍ إِنَّهُ لَمْ يَبْقَ مِنْ مُبَشِّرَاتِ النُّبُوَّةِ إِلَّا الرُّؤْيَا الصَّالِحَةُ يَرَاهَا الْعَبْدُ الصَّالِحُ أَوْ تُرَى لَهُ أَلَا فَإِنِّي قَدْ نُهِيتُ عَنِ الْقِرَاءَةِ فِي الرُّكُوعِ وَالسُّجُودِ فَإِذَا رَكَعْتُمْ فَعَظِّمُوا اللهَ وَإِذَا سَجَدْتُمْ فَاجْتَهِدُوا فِي الدُّعَاءِ فَإِنَّهُ قَمِنٌ أَنْ يُسْتَجَابَ لَكُمْ  

[Machine] That the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "The closest that a servant can be to his Lord is when he is prostrating, so increase your supplications in it."  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ أَقْرَبُ مَا يَكُونُ الْعَبْدُ مِنْ رَبِّهِ وَهُوَ سَاجِدٌ فَأَكْثِرُوا الدُّعَاءَ فِيهِ  

The prophet ﷺ used to say when prostrating himself: “O Allah. Forgive me all my sins, small and great, first and last. “ the narrator Ibn al-sarh added: “open and secret.” (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 878)   

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ كَانَ يَقُولُ فِي سُجُودِهِ اللهُمَّ اغْفِرْ لِي ذَنْبِي كُلَّهُ دِقَّهُ وَجُلَّهُ وَأَوَّلَهُ وَآخِرَهُ زَادَ ابْنُ السَّرْحِ عَلَانِيَتَهُ وَسِرَّهُ  

[Machine] I heard Anas ibn Malik say, "I have not prayed behind anyone after the Messenger of Allah ﷺ whose prayer resembled the prayer of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ more than this boy, meaning Umar ibn Abdul Aziz." He (Anas) said, "We counted in his bows ten tasbeehs and in his prostrations ten tasbeehs." Abu Dawood said, "Manoos or Manboos?" He replied, "As for Abdul Razzaq, he says Manboos, and as for me, it is Manoos." And this is the wording of Ibn Rafi. Ahmad reported from Saeed ibn Jubair, from Anas ibn Malik.  

سَمِعْتُ أَنَسَ بْنَ مَالِكٍ يَقُولُ مَا صَلَّيْتُ وَرَاءَ أَحَدٍ بَعْدَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ أَشْبَهَ صَلَاةً بِصَلَاةِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ مِنْ هَذَا الْفَتَى يَعْنِي عُمَرَ بْنَ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ قَالَ فَحَرَزْنَا فِي رُكُوعِهِ عَشْرَ تَسْبِيحَاتٍ وَفِي سُجُودِهِ عَشْرَ تَسْبِيحَاتٍ قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُدَ وَقَالَ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ صَالِحٍ قَالَ لَهُ مَانُوسُ أَوْ مَابُوسُ؟ قَالَ أَمَّا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ فَيَقُولُ مَابُوسُ وَأَمَّا حِفْظِي فَمَانُوسُ وَهَذَا لَفْظُ ابْنِ رَافِعٍ قَالَ أَحْمَدُ عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ  

the Prophet said: "When one of you bows then says while he is bowing: (Subhana Rabbiyal Azim) 'Glorious is my Lord the Magnificent' three times, then he has completed his bowing. And that is the least of it. And when he prostrates and says while prostrating: (Subhana Rabbiyal A'la) 'Glorious is my Lord the Most High' three times, then he has completed his prostrations, and that is the least of it.'" (Using translation from Tirmidhī 261)   

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ إِذَا رَكَعَ أَحَدُكُمْ فَقَالَ سُبْحَانَ رَبِّيَ الْعَظِيمِ ثَلَاثَ مَرَّاتٍ فَقَدْ تَمَّ رُكُوعُهُ وَذَلِكَ أَدْنَاهُ وَإِذَا سَجَدَ فَقَالَ سُبْحَانَ رَبِّيَ الْأَعْلَى ثَلَاثَ مَرَّاتٍ فَقَدْ تَمَّ سُجُودُهُ وَذَلِكَ أَدْنَاهُ
