nasai:1081Qutaybah > ʿAbbād > Muḥammad b. ʿAmr > Saʿīd b. al-Ḥārith > Jābir b. ʿAbdullāh

"We used to pray Zuhr with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and I would take a handful of pebbles in my hand to cool them down, then I would pass them from one hand to the other, and when I prostrated I would put them down to lay my forehead on them."  

النسائي:١٠٨١أَخْبَرَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَبَّادٌ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ الْحَارِثِ عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ قَالَ

كُنَّا نُصَلِّي مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ الظُّهْرَ فَآخُذُ قَبْضَةً مِنْ حَصًى فِي كَفِّي أُبَرِّدُهُ ثُمَّ أُحَوِّلُهُ فِي كَفِّي الآخَرِ فَإِذَا سَجَدْتُ وَضَعْتُهُ لِجَبْهَتِي

" كنت أصلى مع رسول الله ﷺ الظهر فَآخُذ قبضة من الحصى فأَجعلها في كفى، ثم أحولها إلى الكف الآخر حتى تبرد، ثم أضعها لجبينى حتى أسجد من شد الحر ".
