Sunan Abi Dawud 740

Translation

Nadr ibn Kathir as-Sa'di said: Abdullah ibn Tawus prayed at my side in the mosque of al-Khayf. When he made the first prostration, he raised his head after it and raised his hands opposite to his face. This came as something strange for me. I, therefore, said it to Wuhayb ibn Khalid. Then Wuhayb ibn Khalid said to him: You are doing a thing that I did not see anyone do. Ibn Tawus then replied: I saw my father doing it, and my father said: I saw Ibn Abbas doing it. I do not know but he said: The Prophet ﷺ used to do it.

  النضر بن كثير قال البخاري فيه نظر وقال مرة عنده مناكير وقال العقيلي لا يتابع النضر عليه وقال ابن عدي هو ممن يكتب حديثه وخرج له هذا الحديث وعنده أنه كان يرفع يديه كلما ركع وسجد ويرفع بين السجدتين وضعف الإمام أحمد النضر هذا وقال أبو حاتم والدارقطني فيه نظر وقال النسائي صالح

  machine translationAl-Naḍr b. Kathīr: al-Bukhārī said of him, "there is something to look into concerning him (fīhi naẓar)", and on another occasion he said, "he has objectionable reports (manākīr)". Al-ʿUqaylī said, "al-Naḍr is not corroborated in it." Ibn ʿAdī said, "he is one of those whose hadith is written down," and he included this hadith among his reports, according to which he used to raise his hands every time he bowed and prostrated, and he would raise them between the two prostrations. Imam Aḥmad declared this al-Naḍr weak (ḍaʿīf). Abū Ḥātim and al-Dāraquṭnī said, "there is something to look into concerning him (fīhi naẓar)". Al-Nasāʾī said, "fair (ṣāliḥ)". Report a problem
