أَخْبَرَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى بْنِ زُهَيْرٍ الْحَافِظُ بِتُسْتَرَ وَكَانَ أَسْوَدَ مِنْ رَأَيْتُ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَشَّارٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَاصِمٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْحَمِيدِ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَمْرِو بْنِ عَطَاءٍ قَالَ
سَمِعْتُ أَبَا حُمَيْدٍ السَّاعِدِيَّ فِي عَشْرَةٍ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فِيهِمْ أَبُو قَتَادَةَ فَقَالَ أَبُو حُمَيْدٍ أَنَا أَعْلَمُكُمْ بِصَلَاةِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالُوا لِمَ؟ فَوَاللَّهِ مَا كُنْتَ أَكْثَرَنَا لَهُ تَبَعَةً وَلَا أَقْدَمَنَا لَهُ صُحْبَةً قَالَ بَلَى قَالُوا فَاعْرِضْ قَالَ «كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ إِذَا قَامَ إِلَى الصَّلَاةِ كَبَّرَ ثُمَّ رَفَعَ يَدَيْهِ حَتَّى يُحَاذِيَ بِهِمَا مَنْكِبَيْهِ وَيُقِيمُ كُلَّ عَظْمٍ فِي مَوْضِعِهِ ثُمَّ يَقْرَأُ ثُمَّ يَرْفَعُ يَدَيْهِ حَتَّى يُحَاذِيَ بِهِمَا مَنْكِبَيْهِ ثُمَّ يَرْكَعُ وَيَضَعُ رَاحَتَيْهِ عَلَى رُكْبَتَيْهِ مُعْتَدِلًا لَا يُصَوِّبُ رَأْسَهُ وَلَا يَقْنَعْ بِهِ يَقُولُ سَمِعَ اللَّهُ لِمَنْ حَمِدَهُ وَيَرْفَعُ يَدَيْهِ حَتَّى يُحَاذِيَ بِهِمَا مَنْكِبَيْهِ حَتَّى يَقَرَّ كُلُّ عَظْمٍ إِلَى مَوْضِعِهِ ثُمَّ يَهْوِي إِلَى الْأَرْضِ وَيُجَافِي يَدَيْهِ عَنْ جَنْبَيْهِ ثُمَّ يَرْفَعُ رَأْسَهُ وَيَثْنِي رِجْلَهُ فَيَقْعُدُ عَلَيْهَا وَيَفْتَخُ أَصَابِعَ رِجْلَيْهِ إِذَا سَجَدَ ثُمَّ يَسْجُدُ ثُمَّ يُكَبِّرُ وَيَجْلِسُ عَلَى رِجْلِهِ الْيُسْرَى حَتَّى يَرْجِعَ كُلُّ عَظْمٍ إِلَى مَوْضِعِهِ ثُمَّ يَقُومُ فَيَصْنَعُ فِي الْأُخْرَى مِثْلَ ذَلِكَ ثُمَّ إِذَا قَامَ مِنَ الرَّكْعَتَيْنِ رَفَعَ يَدَيْهِ حَتَّى يُحَاذِيَ بِهِمَا مَنْكِبَيْهِ كَمَا صَنَعَ عِنْدَ افْتِتَاحِ الصَّلَاةِ ثُمَّ يُصَلِّي بَقِيَّةَ صَلَاتِهِ هَكَذَا حَتَّى إِذَا كَانَ فِي السَّجْدَةِ الَّتِي فِيهَا التَّسْلِيمُ أَخْرَجَ رِجْلَيْهِ وَجَلَسَ عَلَى شِقِّهِ الْأَيْسَرِ مُتَوَرِّكًا» فَقَالُوا صَدَقْتَ هَكَذَا كَانَ يُصَلِّي النَّبِيُّ ﷺ

✧ I heard Abu Humayd al-Sa'idi among ten of the Companions of the Prophet ﷺ, among them Abu Qatadah. Abu Humayd said, 'I am the most knowledgeable among you concerning the prayer of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ.' They said, 'Why? By Allah, you were not the most frequent of us in following him, nor the earliest of us in his companionship.' He said, 'Yes, I was.' They said, 'Then describe it.' He said, 'When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ stood for prayer, he said takbir and raised his hands until they were level with his shoulders, and kept every bone in its position. Then he recited. Then he raised his hands until they were level with his shoulders. Then he bowed and placed his palms on his knees, straight, not lowering his head nor drawing it in. He said, "Allah hears those who praise Him," and raised his hands until they were level with his shoulders, until every bone returned to its position. Then he went down to the ground and kept his hands away from his sides. Then he raised his head and folded his leg and sat on it, and spread the toes of his feet when he prostrated. Then he prostrated. Then he said takbir and sat on his left leg until every bone returned to its position. Then he stood up and did the same in the other rak'ah. Then when he stood up from the two rak'ahs, he raised his hands until they were level with his shoulders, just as he did at the beginning of the prayer. Then he prayed the rest of his prayer in this way, until when he was in the prostration in which there is the taslim, he brought out his legs and sat on his left side, mutawarrikan.' They said, 'You have spoken the truth. This is how the Prophet ﷺ used to pray.'

سمع هذا الخبر محمد بن عمرو بن عطاء عن أبي حميد وسمع من عباس بن سهل عن أبيه قال فالطريقان جميعا محفوظان ومتناهما متباينان وقد يتوهم غير المتبحر في صناعة الحديث أن خبر أبي حميد معلول وليس كذلك
machine translationMuḥammad b. ʿAmr b. ʿAṭāʾ heard this report from Abū Ḥumayd, and he also heard it from ʿAbbās b. Sahl from his father. He said: So both routes are preserved (maḥfūẓ), and their texts differ. Someone who is not well versed in the craft of hadith may imagine that the report of Abū Ḥumayd is defective, but that is not the case.
in صحيح ابن حبان, p. 1871 - الزيلعى
قال شيخنا الذهبي في ميزانه وفليح بن سليمان المدني وإن أخرج له الأئمة الستة وهو من كبار العلماء فقد تكلم فيه فضعفه النسائي وابن معين وأبو حاتم وأبو داود ويحيى القطان والساجي وقال الدارقطني وابن عدي لا بأس به
machine translationOur shaykh al-Dhahabī said in his Mīzān: Fulayḥ b. Sulaymān al-Madanī, although the authors of the six books narrated from him and he is among the great scholars, has been criticized. He was graded weak (ḍaʿīf) by al-Nasāʾī, Ibn Maʿīn, Abū Ḥātim, Abū Dāwūd, Yaḥyā al-Qaṭṭān and al-Sājī. Al-Dāraquṭnī and Ibn ʿAdī said: There is no harm in him (lā baʾsa bihi).
in صحيح ابن حبان, p. 1871 - Taḥāwī
هذا الحديث لم يسمعه محمد بن عمرو بن عطاء من أبي حميد ولا من أحد ذكر مع أبي حميد وبينهما رجل مجهول ومحمد بن عمرو ذكر في الحديث أنه حضر أبا قتادة وسنه لا يحتمل ذلك فإن أبا قتادة قتل قبل ذلك بدهر طويل لأنه قتل مع علي وصلى عليه علي
machine translationMuḥammad b. ʿAmr b. ʿAṭāʾ did not hear this hadith from Abū Ḥumayd, nor from anyone mentioned along with Abū Ḥumayd; between them there is an unknown (majhūl) man. Muḥammad b. ʿAmr is mentioned in the hadith as having been present with Abū Qatādah, but his age does not allow for that, for Abū Qatādah was killed a long time before that, since he was killed with ʿAlī, and ʿAlī prayed over him.
in صحيح ابن حبان, p. 1871 - Abū Ḥatim al-Rāzī
أنكر سماع محمد بن عمرو بن عطاء لهذا الحديث من أبي حميد وقال بينهما رجل

الحديث معلول بجهة أخرى وهو أن محمد بن عمرو ابن عطاء لم يسمع هذا الحديث من أبي حميد
machine translationThe hadith is defective (maʿlūl) from another angle, namely that Muḥammad b. ʿAmr b. ʿAṭāʾ did not hear this hadith from Abū Ḥumayd.
in صحيح ابن حبان, p. 1871 - Badr al-Dīn al-ʿAynī
إن احتج الخصم بحديث أبي حميد الساعدي فجوابه أن أبا داود قد أخرجه من وجوه كثيرة أحدها عن أحمد بن حنبل وليس فيه ذكر رفع اليدين عند الركوع والطريق الذي فيه ذلك فهو عن عبد الحميد بن جعفر فهو ضعيف
machine translationIf the opponent argues from the hadith of Abū Ḥumayd al-Sāʿidī, the answer is that Abū Dāwūd transmitted it through many routes. One of them is from Aḥmad b. Ḥanbal, and it does not mention raising the hands at the bowing. The route in which that is mentioned is from ʿAbd al-Ḥamīd b. Jaʿfar, and he is weak (ḍaʿīf).
in صحيح ابن حبان, p. 1871 - Ibn Ḥazm
لعل عبد الحميد بن جعفر وهم فيه
machine translationPerhaps ʿAbd al-Ḥamīd b. Jaʿfar made an error (wahm) in it.
