( وَرُوِيَ ) ذَلِكَ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ أَبِي طَالِبٍ ؓ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ - ﷺ ( أَخْبَرَنَاهُ ) أَبُو طَاهِرٍ الْفَقِيهُ، أَنْبَأَ أَبُو عُثْمَانَ: عَمْرُو بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ الْبَصْرِيُّ، ثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْوَهَّابِ، ثَنَا سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ دَاوُدَ الْهَاشِمِيُّ، ثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ أَبِي الزِّنَادِ، عَنْ مُوسَى بْنِ عُقْبَةَ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ الْفَضْلِ الْهَاشِمِيِّ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ الْأَعْرَجِ، عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللهِ بْنِ أَبِي رَافِعٍ، عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ أَبِي طَالِبٍ ؓ قَالَ:
كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ إِذَا قَامَ إِلَى الصَّلَاةِ الْمَكْتُوبَةِ كَبَّرَ وَرَفَعَ يَدَيْهِ حَذْوَ مَنْكِبَيْهِ، وَيَصْنَعُهُ إِذَا قَضَى قِرَاءَتَهُ، وَأَرَادَ أَنْ يَرْكَعَ، وَإِذَا رَفَعَ رَأْسَهُ مِنَ الرُّكُوعِ فَعَلَ مِثْلَ ذَلِكَ، وَلَا يَرْفَعُ يَدَيْهِ فِي شَيْءٍ مِنْ صَلَاتِهِ وَهُوَ قَاعِدٌ، وَإِذَا قَامَ مِنَ السَّجْدَتَيْنِ كَبَّرَ وَرَفَعَ يَدَيْهِ كَذَلِكَ

When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ stood for the obligatory prayer, he would say the takbīr and raise his hands level with his shoulders. He would do the same when he finished his recitation and wanted to bow, and when he raised his head from bowing he would do likewise. He would not raise his hands at any point in his prayer while sitting. And when he stood up after the two prostrations, he would say the takbīr and raise his hands in the same way.
