حَدَّثَنَاهُ أَبُو مُحَمَّدٍ عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ حَمْدَانَ الْجَلَّابُ بِهَمْدَانَ ثنا أَبُو حَاتِمٍ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِدْرِيسَ الرَّازِيُّ ثنا وَهْبُ بْنُ أَبِي مَرْحُومٍ ثنا إِسْرَائِيلُ بْنُ حَاتِمٍ عَنْ مُقَاتِلِ بْنِ حَيَّانَ عَنِ الْأَصْبَغِ بْنِ نُبَاتَةَ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ أَبِي طَالِبٍ قَالَ

لَمَّا نَزَلَتْ هَذِهِ الْآيَةُ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ {إِنَّا أَعْطَيْنَاكَ الْكَوْثَرَ فَصَلِّ لِرَبِّكَ وَانْحَرْ} [الكوثر 2] قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «يَا جِبْرِيلُ مَا هَذِهِ النَّحِيرَةُ الَّتِي أَمَرَنِي بِهَا رَبِّي؟» قَالَ إِنَّهَا لَيْسَتْ بِنَحِيرَةٍ وَلَكِنَّهُ يَأْمُرُكَ إِذَا تَحَرَّمْتَ لِلصَّلَاةِ أَنْ تَرْفَعَ يَدَيْكَ إِذَا كَبَّرْتَ وَإِذَا رَكَعْتَ وَإِذَا رَفَعْتَ رَأْسَكَ مِنَ الرُّكُوعِ فَإِنَّهَا صَلَاتُنَا وَصَلَاةُ الْمَلَائِكَةِ الَّذِينَ فِي السَّمَاوَاتِ السَّبْعِ قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ رَفْعُ الْأَيْدِي مِنَ الِاسْتِكَانَةِ الَّتِي قَالَ اللَّهُ ﷻ {فَمَا اسْتَكَانُوا لِرَبِّهِمْ وَمَا يَتَضَرَّعُونَ} [المؤمنون 76]

✧ "When this verse was revealed to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, it says, 'Indeed, We have granted you, [O Muhammad], al-Kawthar. So pray to your Lord and sacrifice [to Him alone].'" (Al-Kawthar 2) The Prophet ﷺ asked Gabriel, "O Gabriel, what is this 'nahirah' that my Lord has commanded me to do?" Gabriel replied, "It is not a 'nahirah,' but rather, it is a command that whenever you enter a state of ritual consecration for prayer, you should raise your hands when you say the takbir (saying "Allahu Akbar"), when you bow, and when you raise your head after bowing. This is our prayer and the prayer of the angels in the seven heavens." The Prophet ﷺ said, "Raising the hands from the 'istikana' position is what Allah, the Almighty, said, 'But they did not prostrate to Allah when they were able, and they did not do humility.'" (Al-Mu'minun 76) As for Israel, he is the owner of wonders that should not be relied upon. And the term "asbigh" refers to a group of abandoned Shia individuals according to An-Nasai."
