[Machine] I saw the Messenger of Allah ﷺ praying while sitting with crossed legs.  

رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ «يُصَلِّي مُتَرَبِّعًا»  

Messenger of Allah (S) said: "Teach the boy Salat when he is seven years old, and beat him (if he does not pray) when he is ten." (Using translation from Tirmidhī 407)   

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «عَلِّمُوا الصَّبِيَّ الصَّلَاةَ ابْنَ سَبْعِ سِنِينَ وَاضْرِبُوهُ عَلَيْهَا ابْنَ عَشْرٍ»  

Ibn Abbas said: A lunatic woman passed by Ali ibn AbuTalib. He then mentioned the rest of the tradition to the same effect as Uthman mentioned. This version has: Do you not remember that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ has said: There are three whose actions are not recorded: a lunatic whose mind is deranged till he is restored to consciousness, a sleeper till he awakes, and a boy till he reaches puberty? (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 4401)   

وَقَالَ لِعُمَرَ يَا أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ أُتَرْجُمُ هَذِهِ؟ قَالَ نَعَمْ قَالَ أَوَ مَا تَذْكُرُ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ «رُفِعَ الْقَلَمُ عَنْ ثَلَاثٍ عَنِ الْمَجْنُونِ الْمَغْلُوبِ عَلَى عَقْلِهِ وَعَنِ النَّائِمِ حَتَّى يَسْتَيْقِظَ وَعَنِ الصَّبِيِّ حَتَّى يَحْتَلِمَ» ؟ قَالَ صَدَقْتَ فَخَلَّى عَنْهَا  

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to pray on a mat and on a tanned skin. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 659)   

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ كَانَ «يُصَلِّي عَلَى الْحَصِيرِ وَالْفَرْوَةِ الْمَدْبُوغَةِ»  

[Machine] Abu Asim noble who narrated, that Zam'ah bin Salih narrated from Salamah bin Wahram, from Ikrimah, from Ibn Abbas that he prayed on a mat and then said, "The Messenger of Allah ﷺ prayed on a mat."  

ثنا أَبُو عَاصِمٍ النَّبِيلُ ثنا زَمْعَةُ بْنُ صَالِحٍ عَنْ سَلَمَةَ بْنِ وَهْرَامٍ عَنْ عِكْرِمَةَ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ أَنَّهُ صَلَّى عَلَى بِسَاطٍ ثُمَّ قَالَ «صَلَّى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ عَلَى بِسَاطٍ»  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "When one of you prays, let him wear his sandals or remove them between his feet and not harm others with them."  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ «إِذَا صَلَّى أَحَدُكُمْ فَلْيَلْبَسْ نَعْلَيْهِ أَوْ لِيَخْلَعْهُمَا بَيْنَ رِجْلَيْهِ وَلَا يُؤْذِي بِهِمَا غَيْرَهُ»  

[Machine] "I accompanied the Messenger of Allah ﷺ during the year of the conquest. He prayed the dawn prayer and removed his sandals, placing them on his left side."  

«حَضَرْتُ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ عَامَ الْفَتْحِ فَصَلَّى الصُّبْحَ فَخَلَعَ نَعْلَيْهِ فَوَضَعَهُمَا عَنْ يَسَارِهِ»  

The Prophet ﷺ said: When any of you prays, he should not place his sandals on his right side or on his left so as to be on the right side of someone else, unless no one is at his left, but should place them between his feet. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 654)   

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ «إِذَا صَلَّى أَحَدُكُمْ فَلَا يَضَعْ نَعْلَيْهِ عَنْ يَمِينِهِ وَلَا عَنْ يَسَارِهِ إِلَّا أَنْ لَا يَكُونَ عَنْ يَسَارِهِ أَحَدٌ وَلْيَضَعْهُمَا بَيْنَ رِجْلَيْهِ» صَحِيحٌ عَلَى شَرْطِ الشَّيْخَيْنِ وَلَمْ يُخَرِّجَاهُ على شرطهما  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ prayed and took off his sandals. The people also took off their sandals. When he finished, he asked, "Why did you take off your sandals?" They replied, "O Messenger of Allah, we saw you take off your sandals, so we took off ours." He said, "Indeed, Jibril came to me and informed me that there was some impurity on them. So when one of you enters the masjid, let him flip his sandals and examine them for any impurity. If he finds any impurity, let him wipe them on the ground and then pray in them."  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ صَلَّى فَخَلَعَ نَعْلَيْهِ فَخَلَعَ النَّاسُ نِعَالَهُمْ فَلَمَّا انْصَرَفَ قَالَ «لِمَ خَلَعْتُمْ نِعَالَكُمْ؟» قَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ رَأَيْنَاكَ خَلَعْتَ فَخَلَعْنَا قَالَ «إِنَّ جِبْرِيلَ أَتَانِي فَأَخْبَرَنِي أَنَّ بِهِمَا خَبَثًا فَإِذَا جَاءَ أَحَدُكُمُ الْمَسْجِدَ فَلْيَقْلِبْ نَعْلَيْهِ فَلْيَنْظُرْ فِيهِمَا خَبَثٌ فَإِنْ وَجَدَ فِيهِمَا خَبَثًا فَلْيَمْسَحْهُمَا بِالْأَرْضِ ثُمَّ لِيُصَلِّ فِيهِمَا»  

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: Act differently from the Jews, for they do not pray in their sandals or their shoes. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 652)  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «خَالِفُوا الْيَهُودَ فَإِنَّهُمْ لَا يُصَلُّونَ فِي خِفَافِهِمْ وَلَا نِعَالِهِمْ»  

when any of you prays and takes off his sandals, he should not harm anyone by them. He should place them between his feet or pray with them on (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 655)   

عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ «إِذَا صَلَّى أَحَدُكُمْ فَلْيَخْلَعْ نَعْلَيْهِ بَيْنَ رِجْلَيْهِ أَوْ لِيُصَلِّ فِيهِمَا» على شرطهما  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "If one of you experiences something unusual while praying, he should place his hand on his nose and then continue." Some of them stopped him on this condition.  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ «إِذَا أَحْدَثَ أَحَدُكُمْ وَهُوَ فِي الصَّلَاةِ فَلْيَضَعْ يَدَهُ عَلَى أَنْفِهِ ثُمَّ لِيَنْصَرِفْ» ومنهم من وقفه هذا على شرطهما  

[Machine] The translation of the given text in English is: "The Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, said: 'When one of you prays and doesn't know how much he has prayed, whether it is three or four (raka'at), let him perform one additional raka'ah, perfecting its bowing and prostration, and then make two prostrations.'"  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ «إِذَا صَلَّى أَحَدُكُمْ فَلَا يَدْرِي كَمْ صَلَّى ثَلَاثًا أَوْ أَرْبَعًا فَلْيَرْكَعْ رَكْعَةً يُحْسِنُ رُكُوعَهَا وَسُجُودَهَا وَيَسْجُدُ سَجْدَتَيْنِ»  

[Machine] "I prayed the Maghrib prayer with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ . He performed the prayer and then said Taslim (the concluding greeting). A man said to him, 'O Messenger of Allah, you forgot and performed Taslim in two Rak'ahs.' The Messenger of Allah ﷺ commanded Bilal to establish the prayer and complete that Rak'ah. I asked the people about the man who said, 'O Messenger of Allah, you forgot.' They informed me that I would recognize him if I saw him. Then, a man passed by me, and I said, 'He is the one.' They said, 'He is Talhah bin 'Ubaidullah, and Al-Laith bin Sa'd narrated this hadith from Abi Habib, who narrated it from Yazid as an abridged version while they both met its condition."  

صَلَّيْتُ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ الْمَغْرِبَ فَسَهَا فَسَلَّمَ فِي رَكْعَتَيْنِ ثُمَّ انْصَرَفَ فَقَالَ لَهُ رَجُلٌ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنَّكَ سَهَوْتَ فَسَلَّمْتَ فِي رَكْعَتَيْنِ فَأَمَرَ بِلَالًا فَأَقَامَ الصَّلَاةَ ثُمَّ أَتَمَّ تِلْكَ الرَّكْعَةَ فَسَأَلْتُ النَّاسَ عَنِ الرَّجُلِ الَّذِي قَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنَّكَ سَهَوْتَ فَقِيلَ لِي تَعْرِفُهُ قُلْتُ لَا إِلَّا أَنْ أَرَاهُ فَمَرَّ بِي رَجُلٌ فَقُلْتُ هُوَ هَذَا فَقَالُوا هَذَا طَلْحَةُ بْنُ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ اخْتَصَرَهُ اللَّيْثُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ عَنْ أَبِي حَبِيبٍورواه الليث عن يزيد مختصرا وهو على شرطهما  

[Machine] The translation of the given Arabic phrase into English is: "The Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, prayed and then he finished and left, though there remained a unit of prayer (rak'ah)."  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ «صَلَّى يَوْمًا فَسَلَّمَ وَانْصَرَفَ وَقَدْ بَقِيَ مِنَ الصَّلَاةِ رَكْعَةٌ»  

The Prophet ﷺ named the two prostrations of forgetfulness disgraceful for the devil. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 1025)  

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ «سَمَّى سَجْدَتَيِ السَّهْوِ الْمُرْغِمَتَيْنِ»  

Sa'id ibn AbuSa'id al-Maqburi reported on the authority of his father that he saw AbuRafi' the freed slave of the Prophet ﷺ, passing by Hasan ibn Ali (Allah be pleased with them) when he was standing offering his prayer. He had tied the back knot of his hair. AbuRafi' untied it. Hasan turned to him with anger, AbuRafi' said to him: Concentrate on your prayer and do not be angry: I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say: This is the seat of the devil, referring to the back knot of the hair. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 646)  

أَنَّهُ رَأَى أَبَا رَافِعٍ مَوْلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ مَرَّ بِالْحَسَنِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ وَهُوَ يُصَلِّي قَائِمًا وَقَدْ غَرَزَ ضَفِرَهُ فِي قَفَاهُ فَحَلَّهَا أَبُو رَافِعٍ فَالْتَفَتَ الْحَسَنُ إِلَيْهِ مُغْضَبًا فَقَالَ أَبُو رَافِعٍ أقْبِلْ عَلَى صَلَاتِكَ وَلَا تَغْضَبْ فَإِنِّي سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ «ذَلِكَ كِفْلُ الشَّيْطَانِ» يَعْنِي مَقْعَدَ الشَّيْطَانِ يَعْنِي مَغْرَزَ ضَفِرِهِ «»  

The Prophet ﷺ used to say between the two prostrations: "O Allah, forgive me, have mercy on me, guide me, heal me, and provide for me." (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 850)  

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ كَانَ يَقُولُ بَيْنَ السَّجْدَتَيْنِ «اللَّهُمَّ اغْفِرْ لِي وَارْحَمْنِي وَاهْدِنِي وَعَافِنِي وَارْزُقْنِي»  

Anas ibn Hakim ad-Dabbi said that he feared Ziyad or Ibn Ziyad; so he came to Medina and met AbuHurayrah. He attributed his lineage to me and I became a member of his lineage. AbuHurayrah said (to me): O youth, should I not narrate a tradition to you? I said: Why not, may Allah have mercy on you? (Yunus (a narrator) said: I think he narrated it (the tradition) from the Prophet ﷺ:) The first thing about which the people will be called to account out of their actions on the Day of Judgment is prayer. Our Lord, the Exalted, will say to the angels - though He knows better: Look into the prayer of My servant and see whether he has offered it perfectly or imperfectly. If it is perfect, that will be recorded perfect. If it is defective, He will say: See there are some optional prayers offered by My servant. If there are optional prayer to his credit, He will say: Compensate the obligatory prayer by the optional prayer for My servant. Then all the actions will be considered similarly. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 864)   

أَنَّهُ خَافَ مِنْ زِيَادٍ فَأَتَى الْمَدِينَةَ فَلَقِيَ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ فَاسْتَنْسَبَنِي فَانْتَسَبْتُ لَهُ فَقَالَ يَا فَتًى أَلَا أُحَدِّثُكَ حَدِيثًا؟ قَالَ قُلْتُ بَلَى رَحِمَكَ اللَّهُ قَالَ يُونُسُ أَحْسِبُهُ ذَكَرَ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ «أَوَّلُ مَا يُحَاسَبُ النَّاسُ بِهِ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ مِنْ أَعْمَالِهِمُ الصَّلَاةُ» قَالَ يَقُولُ رَبُّنَا ﷻ لِلْمَلَائِكَةِ وَهُوَ أَعْلَمُ انْظُرُوا فِي صَلَاةِ عَبْدِي أَتَمَّهَا أَمْ نَقَصَهَا فَإِنْ كَانَتْ تَامَّةً كُتِبَتْ لَهُ تَامَّةً وَإِنْ كَانَ انْتَقَصَ مِنْهَا شَيْئًا قَالَ انْظُرُوا هَلْ لِعَبْدِي مِنْ تَطَوُّعٍ فَإِنْ كَانَ لَهُ تَطَوُّعٌ قَالَ أَتِمُّوا لِعَبْدِي فَرِيضَتَهُ مِنْ تَطَوُّعِهِ ثُمَّ تُؤْخَذُ الْأَعْمَالُ عَلَى ذَلِكَ «»  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "The first thing for which a person will be held accountable on the Day of Judgment is prayer. If it is perfect, it will be written as perfect for him. If it is not complete, Allah, the Blessed and Exalted, will say to His angels, 'Look for any voluntary prayers with which My servant may complete what is lacking from his obligatory prayers.' Then, the same will be done with regards to zakah (obligatory charity) and all other deeds." This wording has been shortened by some of the companions of Hammād ibn Salamah and Musa ibn Ismail al-Hukm in their narration.  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ أَوَّلُ مَا يُحَاسَبُ بِهِ الْعَبْدُ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ الصَّلَاةُ فَإِنْ كَانَ أَكْمَلَهَا كُتِبَتْ لَهُ كَامِلَةً وَإِنْ لَمْ يُكْمِلْهَا قَالَ اللَّهُ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى لِمَلَائِكَتِهِ هَلْ تَجِدُونَ لِعَبْدِي تَطَوُّعًا تُكْمِلُوا بِهِ مَا ضَيَّعَ مِنْ فَرِيضَتِهِ ثُمَّ الزَّكَاةُ مِثْلُ ذَلِكَ ثُمَّ سَائِرُ الْأَعْمَالِ عَلَى حَسَبِ ذَلِكَ «» قَصَرَ بِهِ بَعْضُ أَصْحَابِ حَمَّادِ بْنِ سَلَمَةَ وَمُوسَى بْنِ إِسْمَاعِيلَ الْحُكْمَ فِي حَدِيثِهِ  

[Machine] About a man from the companions of the Prophet ﷺ and about Dawud ibn Abi Hind, he narrated from Zurarah ibn Awfa that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "The first thing for which a person will be held accountable on the Day of Judgment is his prayer." And he mentioned the hadith in a similar manner.  

عَنْ رَجُلٍ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ وَعَنْ دَاوُدَ بْنِ أَبِي هِنْدٍ عَنْ زُرَارَةَ بْنِ أَوْفَى عَنْ تَمِيمٍ الدَّارِيِّ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ «أَوَّلُ مَا يُحَاسَبُ بِهِ الْعَبْدُ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ صَلَاتُهُ» وَذَكَرَ الْحَدِيثَ بِنَحْوِهِ  

[Machine] Regarding the Prophet ﷺ , it was mentioned about him that regarding the narration of Hammad ibn Salamah, so that the contemplator may know that what we have authenticated is the hadith of Dawud ibn Abi Hind, and it does not involve any contradiction with Hammad or the rest of the narrations about it. There are chains of narration from Hammad, other than Dawud, praying upon Muhammad and his family altogether.  

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ نَحْوَهُ «قَدْ ذُكِرَ هَذَا الْخِلَافُ فِيهِ عَلَى حَمَّادِ بْنِ سَلَمَةَ لِيَعْلَمَ الْمُتَأَمِّلُ أَنَّ الَّذِي صَحَّحْنَاهُ حَدِيثُ دَاوُدَ بْنِ أَبِي هِنْدٍ لَيْسَ فِيهِ خِلَافٌ عَلَى حَمَّادٍ وَسَائِرُ الرِّوَايَاتِ فِيهِ أَسَانِيدُ لِحَمَّادٍ عَنْ غَيْرِ دَاوُدَ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَآلِهِ أَجْمَعِينَ»  

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 «اللَّهُمَّ اغْفِرْ لِي ذَنْبِي كُلَّهُ جُلَّهُ وَدِقَّهُ أَوَّلَهُ وَآخِرَهُ عَلَانِيَتَهُ وَسِرَّهُ»  

[Machine] Indeed, the Prophet, peace be upon him, used to say "Glory be to my Lord, the Most High" when he recited "Subhan Rabbi al-A'la" (Glorified is my Lord, the Most High).  

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ كَانَ إِذَا قَرَأَ سَبِّحِ اسْمَ رَبِّكَ الْأَعْلَى قَالَ «سُبْحَانَ رَبِّيَ الْأَعْلَى»  

I saw the Messenger of Allah ﷺ praying and a sound came from his breast like the rumbling of a mill owing to weeping. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 904)   

رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ «يُصَلِّي وَفِي صَدْرِهِ أَزِيزٌ كَأَزِيزِ الْمِرْجَلِ مِنَ الْبُكَاءِ»  

[Machine] From the Prophet ﷺ , he said, "There is no deception in prayer or in the greetings." Ahmad ibn Hanbal said from what he saw that he wanted not to give the greeting and to give the greeting to you. The deception of a person in his prayer is to give the greeting while he is doubting in it.  

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ «لَا غِرَارَ فِي صَلَاةٍ وَلَا تَسْلِيمٍ» قَالَ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ حَنْبَلٍ فِيمَا رَأَى أَنَّهُ أَرَادَ أَنْ لَا يُسَلِّمَ وَيُسَلَّمَ عَلَيْكَ وَتَغْرِيرُ الرَّجُلِ بِصَلَاتِهِ أَنْ يُسَلِّمَ وَهُوَ فِيهَا شَاكٌّ هَذَا  

[Machine] "There is no deception in surrender and no prayer."  

«لَا غِرَارَ فِي تَسْلِيمٍ وَلَا صَلَاةٍ»  

Abu hurairah said that the Messenger of Allah (May peace be upon him) forbade putting hands on the waist during prayer. Abu Dawud said; The word Ikhtisar means to put one’s hands on one’s waist. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 947)   

«نَهَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ عَنِ الِاخْتِصَارِ فِي الصَّلَاةِ» قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ الْعَبْدِيُّ وَهُوَ أَنْ يَضَعَ الرَّجُلُ يَدَهُ عَلَى خَاصِرَتِهِ «»  

Hilal ibn Yasaf said: I came to ar-Raqqah (a place in Syria). One of my companions said to me: Do you want to see any of the Companions of the Prophet ﷺ? I said: A good opportunity. So we went to Wabisah. I said to my friend: Let us first see his mode of living. He had a cap with two ears stuck (to his head), and wearing a brown silken robe. He was resting on a staff during prayer. We asked him (about resting on the staff) after salutation; He said: Umm Qays daughter of Mihsan said to me that when the Messenger of Allah ﷺ became aged and the flesh grew increasingly on him, he took a prop at his place of prayer and rested on it. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 948)  

لِي بَعْضُ أَصْحَابِي هَلْ لَكَ فِي رَجُلٍ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ؟ قَالَ قُلْتُ نَعَمْ غَنِيمَةٌ فَدَفَعَنَا إِلَى وَابِصَةَ بْنِ مَعْبَدٍ قُلْتُ لِصَاحِبِي نَبْدَأُ فَنَظَرَ إِلَى دَلِّهِ فَإِذَا عَلَيْهِ قَلَنْسُوَةُ لَاطِئَةٌ ذَاتُ أُذُنَيْنِ وَبُرْنُسُ خَزًّ غُبُرٌ وَإِذَا هُوَ مُعْتَمِدٌ عَلَى عَصًا فِي صَلَاتِهِ فَقُلْنَا لَهُ بَعْدَ أَنْ سَلَّمْنَا فَقَالَ حَدَّثَتْنِي أُمُّ قَيْسٍ بِنْتُ مِحْصَنٍ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ «لَمَّا أَسَنَّ وَحَمَلَ اللَّحْمَ اتَّخَذَ عَمُودًا فِي الصَّلَاةِ يَعْتَمِدُ عَلَيْهِ»  

I asked ‘A’ishah whether the Messenger of Allah ﷺ recited a whole Surah (of the Quran) in one Rak’ah of the prayer. She replied : (He recited from among) the Mufassal surahs. I asked: Did he pray (at night) sitting? She replied : (he prayed sitting) when the people made him old. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 956)   

سَأَلْتُ عَائِشَةَ هَلْ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَقْرَأُ السُّورَةَ فِي الرَّكْعَةِ؟ قَالَتْ «مِنَ الْمُفَصَّلِ» قَالَ فَقُلْتُ أَكَانَ يُصَلِّي قَاعِدًا؟ قَالَتْ «حِينَ حَطَمَهُ السِّنُّ»  

We did not know what we should say when we sat during prayer. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ was taught (by Allah). He then narrated the tradition to the same effect. Sharik reported from Jami', from AbuWa'il on the authority of Abdullah ibn Mas'ud something similar. He said: He used to teach us also some other words, but he did not teach them as he taught us the tashahhud: O Allah, join our hearts, mend our social relationship, guide us to the path of peace, bring us from darkness to light, save us from obscenities, outward or inward, and bless our ears, our eyes, our hearts, our wives, our children, and relent toward us; Thou art the Relenting, the Merciful. And make us grateful for Thy blessing and make us praise it while accepting it and give it to us in full. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 969)   

كُنَّا لَا نَدْرِي مَا نَقُولُ إِذَا جَلَسْنَا فِي الصَّلَاةِ وَكَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَدْ عَلِمَ جَوَامِعَ الْكَلِمِ وَخَوَاتِمَهُ قَالَ فَذَكَرَ التَّشَهُّدَ وَقَالَ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ يُعَلِّمُنَا كَلِمَاتٍ كَمَا يُعَلِّمُنَا التَّشَهُّدَ «اللَّهُمَّ أَلَّفْ بَيْنَ قُلُوبِنَا وَأَصْلِحْ ذَاتَ بَيْنِنَا وَاهْدِنَا سُبُلَ السَّلَامِ وَنَجِّنَا مِنَ الظُّلُمَاتِ إِلَى النُّورِ وَجَنِّبْنَا الْفَوَاحِشَ مَا ظَهَرَ مِنْهَا وَمَا بَطَنَ وَبَارِكْ لَنَا فِي أَسْمَاعِنَا وَأَبْصَارِنَا وَقُلُوبِنَا وَأَزْوَاجِنَا وَذُرِّيَّاتِنَا وَتُبْ عَلَيْنَا إِنَّكَ أَنْتَ التَّوَّابُ الرَّحِيمُ وَاجْعَلْنَا شَاكِرِينَ لِنِعَمِكَ مُثْنِينَ بِهَا عَلَيْكَ قَابِلِينَ لَهَا وَأَتِمَّهَا عَلَيْنَا»  

[Machine] The translation of the sentence is as follows: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to teach us, so he mentioned it just like it on the condition of a Muslim.  

كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ يُعَلِّمُنَا فَذَكَرَهُ مِثْلَهُعلى شرط مسلم  

The Messenger of Allah( may peace be upon him) used to teach us the tashahhud as he would teach us the Qur’an, and would say: The blessed adoration of the tongue, acts of worship (and) all good things are due to Allah. Peace be upon you, O Prophet, and Allah’s mercy and His blessings. Peace be upon us and upon Allah’s upright servants. I testify that there is no god but Allah, and I testify that Muhammad is Allah’s apostle (peace be upon him). (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 974)   

يُعَلِّمُ النَّاسَ التَّشَهُّدَ عَلَى الْمِنْبَرِ فَيَقُولُ «التَّحِيَّاتُ لِلَّهِ الزَّاكِيَاتُ لِلَّهِ الطَّيِّبَاتُ لِلَّهِ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ أَيُّهَا النَّبِيُّ وَرَحْمَةُ اللَّهِ وَبَرَكَاتُهُ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْنَا وَعَلَى عَبَّادِ اللَّهِ الصَّالِحِينَ أَشْهَدُ أَنْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ وَأَشْهَدُ أَنَّ مُحَمَّدًا عَبْدُهُ وَرَسُولُهُ»  

[Machine] Abdullah ibn Salama Al-Qa'nabi reported that Abd al-Aziz ibn Muhammad narrated from Hisham ibn Uruwah, from his father, that Umar ibn al-Khattab used to teach the people how to recite the Tashahhud in prayer while delivering a sermon on the pulpit of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ . He would say, "When one of you recites Tashahhud in prayer, let them say: 'In the name of Allah, the most beneficial, the most merciful. All pure prayers, good greetings and pure acts of worship to Allah. Peace be upon you, O Prophet, and the mercy of Allah and His blessings. Peace be upon us and upon the righteous slaves of Allah. I bear witness that there is no God but Allah alone, without any partners, and that Muhammad is His servant and Messenger.' Umar said, 'Begin with yourselves after the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , and send peace upon the righteous slaves of Allah.'"  

ثنا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ الْقَعْنَبِيُّ ثنا عَبْدُ الْعَزِيزِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ هِشَامِ بْنِ عُرْوَةَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ أَنَّ عُمَرَ بْنَ الْخَطَّابِ كَانَ يُعَلِّمُ النَّاسَ التَّشَهُّدَ فِي الصَّلَاةِ وَهُوَ يَخْطُبُ النَّاسَ عَلَى مِنْبَرِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَيَقُولُ إِذَا تَشَهَّدَ أَحَدُكُمْ فَلْيَقُلْ بِسْمِ اللَّهِ خَيْرِ الْأَسْمَاءِ التَّحِيَّاتُ الزَّاكِيَاتُ الصَّلَوَاتُ الطَّيِّبَاتُ لِلَّهِ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ أَيُّهَا النَّبِيُّ وَرَحْمَةُ اللَّهِ وَبَرَكَاتُهُ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْنَا وَعَلَى عَبَّادِ اللَّهِ الصَّالِحِينَ أَشْهَدُ أَنْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ وَحْدَهُ لَا شَرِيكَ لَهُ وَأَنَّ مُحَمَّدًا عَبْدُهُ وَرَسُولُهُ قَالَ عُمَرُ «ابْدَءُوا بِأَنْفُسِكُمْ بَعْدَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَسَلِّمُوا عَلَى عَبَّادِ اللَّهِ الصَّالِحِينَ»  

[Machine] Omar said, "I hold your hand as the Messenger of Allah ﷺ held mine. Therefore, the testimony, greetings, prayers, and pure acts of worship to Allah are recited in it." And he mentioned the hadith in a similar manner, "As for the addition in the beginning of the testimony with the name of Allah and with Allah, it is authentic according to the condition of Bukhari."  

وَقَالَ عُمَرُ أَخَذْتُ بِيَدِكَ كَمَا أَخَذَ بِيَدِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَعَدَّ فِيهَا التَّشَهُّدَ التَّحِيَّاتُ الصَّلَوَاتُ الطَّيِّبَاتُ الزَّاكِيَاتُ لِلَّهِ وَذَكَرَ الْحَدِيثَ بِنَحْوِهِ «فَأَمَّا الزِّيَادَةُ فِي أَوَّلِ التَّشَهُّدِ بِاسْمِ اللَّهِ وَبِاللَّهِ فَإِنَّهُ صَحِيحٌ مِنْ شَرْطِ الْبُخَارِيِّ» فأما الزيادة في أوله فعلى شرط البخاري  

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to teach us tashahhud as he would teach us a Sura of the Qur'an. (Using translation from Muslim 403b)  

كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «يُعَلِّمُنَا التَّشَهُّدَ كَمَا يُعَلِّمُنَا السُّورَةَ مِنَ الْقُرْآنِ بِاسْمِ اللَّهِ وَبِاللَّهِ التَّحِيَّاتُ لِلَّهِ» قَالَ أَبُو الْعَبَّاسِ فَذَكَرَ الْحَدِيثَ وَفِي آخِرِهِ «اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَسْأَلُكَ الْجَنَّةَ وَأَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنَ النَّارِ»  

“The Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to teach us the Tashah-hud as he used to teach us a Surah from the Qur’an: ‘Bismillahi wa Billahi; at-tahiyyatu lillahi was-salawatu wat-tayyibatu lillahi; as-salamu ‘alayka ayyuhan- Nabiyyu wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuhu; as-salamu ‘alayna wa ‘ala ‘ibadillahis-salihin. Ashhadu an la ilaha illallah wa ashhadu anna Muhammadan ‘abduhu wa rasuluhu. As’alu Allahal-jannah, wa a’udhu billahi minannar (In the name of Allah and by the grace of Allah. All compliments are due to Allah and all prayers and good words are due to Allah. Peace be upon you, O Prophet, and the mercy of Allah and His blessings; peace be upon us and upon the righteous slaves of Allah. I bear witness that none has the right to be worshipped but Allah and I bear witness that Muhammad is His slave and Messenger. I ask Allah for Paradise and I seek refuge with Allah from the Fire).’” (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 902)  

كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «يُعَلِّمُنَا التَّشَهُّدَ كَمَا يُعَلِّمُنَا السُّورَةَ مِنَ الْقُرْآنِ بِسْمِ اللَّهِ وَبِاللَّهِ التَّحِيَّاتُ لِلَّهِ الصَّلَوَاتُ الطَّيِّبَاتُ لِلَّهِ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ أَيُّهَا النَّبِيُّ وَرَحْمَةُ اللَّهِ وَبَرَكَاتُهُ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْنَا وَعَلَى عَبَّادِ اللَّهِ الصَّالِحِينَ أَشْهَدُ أَنْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ وَأَشْهَدُ أَنَّ مُحَمَّدًا عَبْدُهُ وَرَسُولُهُ نَسْأَلُ اللَّهَ الْجَنَّةَ وَنَعُوذُ بِهِ مِنَ النَّارِ»  

[Machine] About the Prophet ﷺ, it was narrated from him, "I heard Abu Ali Al-Hafiz certifying Ibn Qahtaba, except that he made a mistake in it, as it is with Al-Mu'tamir from Aiman bin Nabil, as we mentioned before. May Allah bless Muhammad and his family, all of them." Aiman used it as evidence and Al-Bukhari narrated it from him through a group.  

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ نَحْوَهُ «سَمِعْتُ أَبَا عَلِيٍّ الْحَافِظَ يُوَثِّقُ ابْنَ قَحْطَبَةَ إِلَّا أَنَّهُ أَخْطَأَ فِيهِ فَإِنَّهُ عِنْدَ الْمُعْتَمِرِ عَنْ أَيْمَنَ بْنِ نَابِلٍ كَمَا تَقَدَّمَ ذِكْرُنَا لَهُ وَصَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَآلِهِ أَجْمَعِينَ» أيمن احتج به البخاري ورواه عنه جماعة  

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ entered the mosque and saw a man who had finished his prayer, and was reciting the tashahhud saying: O Allah, I ask you, O Allah, the One, the eternally besought of all, He begetteth not, nor was He begotten, and there is none comparable unto Him, that you may forgive me my sins, you are Most Forgiving, Merciful. He (the Prophet) said: He was forgiven (repeating three times.) (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 985)  

قَالَ دَخَلَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ الْمَسْجِدَ فَإِذَا هُوَ بِرَجُلٍ قَدْ صَلَّى صَلَاتَهُ وَهُوَ يَتَشَهَّدُ وَيَقُولُ اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَسْأَلُكَ بِاللَّهِ الْأَحَدِ الصَّمَدِ الَّذِي لَمْ يَلِدْ وَلَمْ يُولَدْ وَلَمْ يَكُنْ لَهُ كُفُوًا أَحَدٌ أَنْ تَغْفِرَ لِي ذُنُوبِي إِنَّكَ أَنْتَ الْغَفُورُ الرَّحِيمُ فَقَالَ «قَدْ غُفِرَ لَهُ قَدْ غُفِرَ لَهُ قَدْ غُفِرَ لَهُ»  

It pertains to the sunnah to utter the tashahhud quietly. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 986)   

أَنْ تُخْفِيَ التَّشَهُّدَ»  

[Machine] "He narrated to me regarding sending blessings upon the Prophet ﷺ , 'When a Muslim person prays upon him in their prayer.'"  

وَحَدَّثَنِي فِي الصَّلَاةِ عَلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ «إِذَا الْمَرْءُ الْمُسْلِمُ صَلَّى عَلَيْهِ فِي صَلَاتِهِ»  

[Machine] A man approached and sat in front of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ while we were with him. He said, "O Messenger of Allah, we know how to greet you with peace, but how do we send blessings upon you when we have already sent blessings upon you in our prayers and Allah has already sent blessings upon you?" He remained silent until we wished that the man had not asked him. Then he said, "When you say the prayer upon me, say: 'O Allah, send blessings upon Muhammad, the Prophet who is unlettered, and upon the family of Muhammad, as You sent blessings upon Ibrahim and the family of Ibrahim. And bless Muhammad, the Prophet who is unlettered, and the family of Muhammad, as You blessed Ibrahim and the family of Ibrahim. Verily, You are full of praise and majesty.'"  

أَقْبَلَ رَجُلٌ حَتَّى جَلَسَ بَيْنَ يَدَيْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَنَحْنُ عِنْدَهُ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَمَّا السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ فَقَدْ عَرَفْنَاهُ فَكَيْفَ نُصَلِّي عَلَيْكَ إِذَا نَحْنُ صَلَّيْنَا عَلَيْكَ فِي صَلَاتِنَا صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْكَ؟ قَالَ فَصَمَتَ حَتَّى أَحْبَبْنَا أَنَّ الرَّجُلَ لَمْ يَسْأَلْهُ ثُمَّ قَالَ إِذَا أَنْتُمْ صَلَّيْتُمْ عَلَيَّ فَقُولُوا اللَّهُمَّ صَلِّ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ النَّبِيِّ الْأُمِّيِّ وَعَلَى آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ كَمَا صَلَّيْتَ عَلَى إِبْرَاهِيمَ وَعَلَى آلِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ وَبَارِكْ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ النَّبِيِّ الْأُمِّيِّ وَعَلَى آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ كَمَا بَارَكْتَ عَلَى إِبْرَاهِيمَ وَعَلَى آلِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ إِنَّكَ حَمِيدٌ مَجِيدٌ «»  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ saw a man praying without praising or glorifying Allah, nor sending blessings upon the Prophet ﷺ , and then he left. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Bring him quickly." He called him and said to him and others, "When one of you prays, let him start with praising his Lord and glorifying Him, then let him send blessings upon the Prophet ﷺ , and then he may supplicate with whatever he wishes."  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ رَأَى رَجُلًا صَلَّى لَمْ يَحْمَدِ اللَّهَ وَلَمْ يُمَجَّدْهُ وَلَمْ يُصَلِّ عَلَى النَّبِي ﷺ وَانْصَرَفَ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «عَجِلَ هَذَا» فَدَعَاهُ فَقَالَ لَهُ وَلِغَيْرِهِ «إِذَا صَلَّى أَحَدُكُمْ فَلْيَبْدَأْ بِتَحْمِيدِ رَبِّهِ وَالثَّنَاءِ عَلَيْهِ ثُمَّ لِيُصَلِّ عَلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ ثُمَّ يَدْعُو بِمَا شَاءَ»  

[Machine] "Abdullah says, 'A man should first recite the testimony of faith, then send blessings upon the Prophet (pbuh), and then make supplications for himself.' 'This hadith has been transmitted from Abdullah ibn Mas'ood with an authentic chain of narrators."  

عَبْدُ اللَّهِ «يَتَشَهَّدُ الرَّجُلُ ثُمَّ يُصَلِّي عَلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ ثُمَّ يَدْعُو لِنَفْسِهِ» «وَقَدْ أَسْنَدَ هَذَا الْحَدِيثَ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ بِإِسْنَادٍ صَحِيحٍ»  

[Machine] On the authority of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, he said, "When any one of you performs the Tashahhud (bearing witness) in prayer, let him say: O Allah, send prayers upon Muhammad and upon the family of Muhammad, and bless Muhammad and the family of Muhammad, and have mercy upon Muhammad and the family of Muhammad, as You have sent prayers, blessed, and had mercy upon Ibrahim. Verily, You are Worthy of Praise and Glorious. And the majority of the narrations for this principle are for the obligations of prayer."  

عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ أَنَّهُ قَالَ إِذَا تَشَهَّدَ أَحَدُكُمْ فِي الصَّلَاةِ فَلْيَقُلِ اللَّهُمَّ صَلِّ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَعَلَى آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ وَبَارِكْ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَعَلَى آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ وَارْحَمْ مُحَمَّدًا وَآلَ مُحَمَّدٍ كَمَا صَلَّيْتَ وَبَارَكْتَ وَتَرَحَّمْتَ عَلَى إِبْرَاهِيمَ إِنَّكَ حُمَيْدٌ مَجِيدٌ «» وَأَكْثَرُ الشَّوَاهِدِ لِهَذِهِ الْقَاعِدَةِ لِفُرُوضِ الصَّلَاةِ  

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ used to say, "There is no prayer for the one who does not have ablution, and there is no ablution for the one who does not mention Allah upon it, and there is no prayer for the one who does not send blessings upon the Prophet of Allah in his prayer." This hadith was not narrated by them according to their condition, as they did not narrate it through 'Abdul-Muhyi.  

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ كَانَ يَقُولُ «لَا صَلَاةَ لِمَنْ لَا وُضُوءَ لَهُ وَلَا وُضُوءَ لِمَنْ لَمْ يَذْكُرِ اللَّهَ عَلَيْهِ وَلَا صَلَاةَ لِمَنْ لَمْ يُصَلِّ عَلَى نَبِيِّ اللَّهِ فِي صَلَاتِهِ» «لَمْ يُخَرَّجْ هَذَا الْحَدِيثُ عَلَى شَرْطِهِمَا فَإِنَّهُمَا لَمْ يُخَرِّجَا عَبْدَ الْمُهَيْمِنِ» عبد المهيمن واه  

[Machine] From the Prophet ﷺ that in the first two units of prayer, he would be as if he was on a rug. We asked him until when he would stand and he replied, "Until he stands." Mas'ar narrated it from Sa'd ibn Ibrahim.  

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ أَنَّهُ كَانَ فِي الرَّكْعَتَيْنِ الْأُولَيَيْنِ كَأَنَّهُ عَلَى الرَّضْفِ قَالَ قُلْنَا حَتَّى يَقُومَ قَالَ حَتَّى يَقُومَ تَابَعَهُ مِسْعَرٌ عَنْ سَعْدِ بْنِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ  

[Machine] He was not with the Prophet ﷺ on the Night of Jinns, and Uthman bin Sa'id Al-Mari has narrated it from Mus'ab, from Sa'd, about it according to their agreement.  

أَنَّهُ لَمْ يَكُنْ مَعَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ لَيْلَةَ الْجِنِّرواه عثمان بن سعيد المري عن مسعر عن سعد نحوه على شرطهما  

The Prophet ﷺ commanded us to respond to the salutation of the imam. and to love each other, and to salute each other. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 1001)  

«أَمَرَنَا النَّبِيُّ ﷺ أَنْ نَرُدَّ عَلَى الْإِمَامِ وَأَنْ نَتَحَابَّ وَأَنْ يُسَلِّمَ بَعْضُنَا عَلَى بَعْضٍ»  

An imam of ours, whose kunyah (surname) was AbuRimthah, led us in prayer and said: I prayed this prayer, or one like it, with the Prophet ﷺ. AbuBakr and Umar were standing in the front row on his right and there was a man who had been present at the first takbir in the prayer. The Prophet of Allah ﷺ offered the prayer, then gave the salutation to his right and his left so that we saw the whiteness of his cheeks, then turned away as AbuRimthah (meaning himself) had done. The man who has been present with him at the first takbir in the prayer then got up to pray another prayer, whereupon Umar leaped up and, seizing him by the shoulders, shook him and said: Sit down, for the People of the Book perished for no other reason than that there was no interval between their prayers. The Prophet ﷺ raised his eyes and said: Allah has made you say what is right, son of al-Khattab. Abu Dawud said: Sometimes the name of Abu Umayyah is narrated instead of Abu Rimthah. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 1007)  

صَلَّى بِنَا إِمَامٌ لَنَا يُكْنَى أَبَا رِمْثَةَ قَالَ صَلَّيْتُ هَذِهِ الصَّلَاةَ أَوْ مِثْلَ هَذِهِ الصَّلَاةِ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ وَكَانَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ وَعُمَرُ يَقُومَانِ فِي الصَّفِّ الْمُتَقَدِّمِ عَنْ يَمِينِهِ وَكَانَ رَجُلٌ قَدْ شَهِدَ التَّكْبِيرَةَ الْأُولَى مِنَ الصَّلَاةِ فَصَلَّى نَبِيُّ اللَّهِ ﷺ ثُمَّ سَلَّمَ عَنْ يَمِينِهِ وَعَنْ يَسَارِهِ حَتَّى رَأَيْنَا بَيَاضَ خَدِّهِ ثُمَّ انْفَتَلَ كَانْفِتَالِ أَبِي رِمْثَةَ يَعْنِي نَفْسَهُ فَقَامَ الرَّجُلُ الَّذِي أَدْرَكَ مَعَهُ التَّكْبِيرَةَ الْأُولَى مِنَ الصَّلَاةِ يَشْفَعُ فَوَثَبَ إِلَيْهِ عُمَرُ فَأَخَذَ بِمَنْكِبِهِ فَهَزَّهُ ثُمَّ قَالَ اجْلِسْ فَإِنَّهُ لَمْ يَهْلِكْ أَهْلُ الْكِتَابِ إِلَّا أَنَّهُ لَمْ يَكُنْ بَيْنَ صَلَاتِهِمْ فَصْلٌ فَرَفَعَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ بَصَرَهُ فَقَالَ «أَصَابَ اللَّهُ بِكَ يَا ابْنَ الْخَطَّابِ»
