ذِكْرُ خَبَرٍ احْتَجَّ بِهِ مَنْ لَمْ يُحْكِمْ صِنَاعَةَ الْحَدِيثِ، وَنَفَى رَفْعَ الْيَدَيْنِ فِي الصَّلَاةِ فِي الْمَوَاضِعِ الَّتِي وَصَفْنَاهَا

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."  

أَنَّهُ كَانَ جَالِسًا مَعَ نَفَرٍ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَذَكَرْنَا صَلاَةَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَقَالَ أَبُو حُمَيْدٍ السَّاعِدِيُّ أَنَا كُنْتُ أَحْفَظَكُمْ لِصَلاَةِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ رَأَيْتُهُ إِذَا كَبَّرَ جَعَلَ يَدَيْهِ حِذَاءَ مَنْكِبَيْهِ وَإِذَا رَكَعَ أَمْكَنَ يَدَيْهِ مِنْ رُكْبَتَيْهِ ثُمَّ هَصَرَ ظَهْرَهُ فَإِذَا رَفَعَ رَأْسَهُ اسْتَوَى حَتَّى يَعُودَ كُلُّ فَقَارٍ مَكَانَهُ فَإِذَا سَجَدَ وَضَعَ يَدَيْهِ غَيْرَ مُفْتَرِشٍ وَلاَ قَابِضِهِمَا وَاسْتَقْبَلَ بِأَطْرَافِ أَصَابِعِ رِجْلَيْهِ الْقِبْلَةَ فَإِذَا جَلَسَ فِي الرَّكْعَتَيْنِ جَلَسَ عَلَى رِجْلِهِ الْيُسْرَى وَنَصَبَ الْيُمْنَى وَإِذَا جَلَسَ فِي الرَّكْعَةِ الآخِرَةِ قَدَّمَ رِجْلَهُ الْيُسْرَى وَنَصَبَ الأُخْرَى وَقَعَدَ عَلَى مَقْعَدَتِهِ وَسَمِعَ اللَّيْثُ يَزِيدَ بْنَ أَبِي حَبِيبٍ وَيَزِيدُ مِنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ حَلْحَلَةَ وَابْنُ حَلْحَلَةَ مِنَ ابْنِ عَطَاءٍ قَالَ أَبُو صَالِحٍ عَنِ اللَّيْثِ كُلُّ فَقَارٍ وَقَالَ ابْنُ الْمُبَارَكِ عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ أَيُّوبَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي يَزِيدُ بْنُ أَبِي حَبِيبٍ أَنَّ مُحَمَّدَ بْنَ عَمْرٍو حَدَّثَهُ كُلُّ فَقَارٍ  

[Machine] He was sitting with a group of the companions of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ . He said, "We mentioned the prayer of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , so Abu Humaid Al-Sa'idi said, 'I used to memorize for you 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 went into ruku', he would place his hands on his knees, then press his back flat, and he mentioned the hadeeth."  

أَنَّهُ كَانَ جَالِسًا مَعَ نَفَرٍ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ فَذَكَرْنَا صَلَاةَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ أَبُو حُمَيْدٍ السَّاعِدِيُّ أَنَا كُنْتُ أَحْفَظَكُمْ لِصَلَاةِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ رَأَيْتُهُ إِذَا كَبَّرَ جَعَلَ يَدَيْهِ حَذْوَ مَنْكِبَيْهِ وَإِذَا رَكَعَ أَمْكَنَ يَدَيْهِ مِنْ رُكْبَتَيْهِ ثُمَّ هَصَرَ ظَهْرَهَ وَذَكَرَ الْحَدِيثَ
