He saw the Prophet ﷺ, when he started to pray, raise his hands until his thumbs were almost level with his earlobes.  

أَنَّهُ رَأَى النَّبِيَّ ﷺ إِذَا افْتَتَحَ الصَّلاَةَ رَفَعَ يَدَيْهِ حَتَّى تَكَادَ إِبْهَامَاهُ تُحَاذِي شَحْمَةَ أُذُنَيْهِ  

I saw that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ raised his hands when he began prayer, but he did not raise them until he finished (prayer). Abu Dawud said: This tradition is not sound.  

رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ رَفَعَ يَدَيْهِ حِينَ افْتَتَحَ الصَّلاَةَ ثُمَّ لَمْ يَرْفَعْهُمَا حَتَّى انْصَرَفَ  

[Machine] "I saw the Messenger of Allah ﷺ begin the prayer and he raised his hands until he reached his ears with them."  

رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ افْتَتَحَ الصَّلَاةَ فَرَفَعَ يَدَيْهِ حَتَّى جَاوَزَ بِهِمَا أُذُنَيْهِ  

[Machine] I saw the Messenger of Allah ﷺ raising his hands when he started the prayer, until his thumbs touched the lobes of his ears.  

رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَرْفَعُ يَدَيْهِ حِينَ افْتَتَحَ الصَّلَاةَ حَتَّى حَاذَتْ إِبْهَامُهُ شَحْمَةَ أُذُنَيْهِ  

[Machine] I saw the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , raising his hands when he started the prayer.  

رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ حِينَ افْتَتَحَ الصَّلَاةَ رَفَعَ يَدَيْهِ  

[Machine] I saw the Messenger of Allah ﷺ when he started the prayer, he raised his hands.
