[Machine] He was sitting with a group of the companions of the Prophet ﷺ. He said, "We mentioned the prayer of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ." Abu Humaid Al-Sa'idi said, "I used to memorize the prayer of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. I saw that when he said the takbeer, he would place his hands parallel to his shoulders. And when he bowed, he would put his hands on his knees. Then he would straighten his back when he raised his head until every bone returned to its place. And when he prostrated, he would place his hands on the ground without spreading or clasping them. And he would face the tips of his fingers with the ends of his toes. And when he sat between the two prostrations, he would front his left foot and sit on his left foot. And when he sat in the last sitting, he would put forward his left foot and sit on his buttocks."

I was sitting with some of the companions of Messenger of Allah ﷺ and we were discussing about the way of praying of the Prophet. Abu Humaid As-Saʿidi said, "I remember the prayer of Messenger of Allah ﷺ better than any one of you. I saw him raising both his hands up to the level of the shoulders on saying the Takbir; and on bowing he placed his hands on both knees and bent his back straight, then he stood up straight from bowing till all the vertebrate took their normal positions. In prostrations, he placed both his hands on the ground with the forearms away from the ground and away from his body, and his toes were facing the Qibla. On sitting In the second rakʿa he sat on his left foot and propped up the right one; and in the last rakʿa he pushed his left foot forward and kept the other foot propped up and sat over the buttocks."
