وَأَخْبَرَنَا ) أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ، أَنْبَأَ أَبُو نَصْرٍ: مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ حَامِدٍ التِّرْمِذِيُّ، ثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ حَبَّانَ، ثَنَا صَالِحُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ التِّرْمِذِيُّ، ثَنَا عَبْدُ الْوَاحِدِ بْنُ زِيَادٍ، ثَنَا عَاصِمُ بْنُ كُلَيْبٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ وَائِلِ بْنِ حُجْرٍ الْحَضْرَمِيِّ قَالَ:
أَتَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ فَقُلْتُ: لَأَنْظُرَنَّ كَيْفَ يُصَلِّي ؟ قَالَ: فَقَامَ فَاسْتَقْبَلَ الْقِبْلَةَ، وَكَبَّرَ وَرَفَعَ يَدَيْهِ حَتَّى كَانَتَا حَذْوَ مَنْكِبَيْهِ، فَلَمَّا رَكَعَ وَضَعَ يَدَيْهِ عَلَى رُكْبَتَيْهِ، فَلَمَّا رَفَعَ رَأْسَهُ مِنَ الرُّكُوعِ رَفَعَ يَدَيْهِ حَتَّى كَانَتَا حَذْوَ مَنْكِبَيْهِ، فَلَمَّا سَجَدَ وَضَعَ وَجْهَهُ بَيْنِ يَدَيْهِ بِذَلِكَ الْمَكَانِ

I came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and said: "I will surely watch how he prays." He said: So he stood and faced the qiblah, and said the takbīr and raised his hands until they were level with his shoulders. When he bowed, he placed his hands on his knees. When he raised his head from the bowing, he raised his hands until they were level with his shoulders. When he prostrated, he placed his face between his hands, in that place.
