أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ بْنِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ مَوْلَى ثَقِيفٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى الْأَزْدِيُّ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَاصِمٍ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ الْحَمِيدِ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَمْرِو بْنِ عَطَاءٍ قَالَ
سَمِعْتُ أَبَا حُمَيْدٍ السَّاعِدِيَّ فِي عَشْرَةٍ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ أَحَدُهُمْ أَبُو قَتَادَةَ قَالَ أَبُو حُمَيْدٍ أَنَا أَعْلَمُكُمْ بِصَلَاةِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالُوا لَهُ وَلِمَ؟ فَوَاللَّهِ مَا كُنْتَ أَكْثَرَنَا لَهُ تَبَعَةً وَلَا أَقْدَمَنَا لَهُ صُحْبَةً قَالَ بَلَى قَالُوا فَاعْرِضْ قَالَ «كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ إِذَا قَامَ إِلَى الصَّلَاةِ كَبَّرَ وَرَفَعَ يَدَيْهِ حَتَّى يُحَاذِيَ بِهِمَا مَنْكِبَيْهِ وَيَقِرَّ كُلُّ عَظْمٍ فِي مَوْضِعِهِ مُعْتَدِلًا ثُمَّ يَقْرَأُ ثُمَّ يُكَبِّرُ وَيَرْفَعُ يَدَيْهِ حَتَّى يُحَاذِيَ بِهِمَا مَنْكِبَيْهِ وَيَرْكَعُ وَيَضَعُ رَاحَتَيْهِ عَلَى رُكْبَتَيْهِ ثُمَّ يَعْتَدِلُ فَلَا يُصَوِّبُ رَأْسَهُ وَلَا يَرْفَعُهُ ثُمَّ يَرْفَعُ رَأْسَهُ وَيَقُولُ سَمِعَ اللَّهُ لِمَنْ حَمِدَهُ وَيَرْفَعُ يَدَيْهِ حَتَّى يُحَاذِيَ بِهِمَا مَنْكِبَيْهِ مُعْتَدِلًا ثُمَّ يَقُولُ اللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ ثُمَّ يَهْوِي إِلَى الْأَرْضِ وَيُجَافِي يَدَيْهِ عَنْ جَنْبَيْهِ ثُمَّ يَرْفَعُ رَأْسَهُ فَيَثْنِي رِجْلَهُ الْيُسْرَى فَيَقْعُدُ عَلَيْهَا وَيَفْتَحُ أَصَابِعَ رِجْلَيْهِ إِذَا سَجَدَ ثُمَّ يَعُودُ فَيَسْجُدُ وَيَرْفَعُ رَأْسَهُ وَيَقُولُ اللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ وَيَثْنِي رِجْلَهُ الْيُسْرَى فَيَقْعُدُ عَلَيْهَا حَتَّى يَعُودَ كُلُّ عَظْمٍ إِلَى مَوْضِعِهِ مُعْتَدِلًا ثُمَّ يَصْنَعُ فِي الرَّكْعَةِ الْأُخْرَى مِثْلَ ذَلِكَ وَإِذَا قَامَ مِنَ الثِّنْتَيْنِ كَبَّرَ وَرَفَعَ يَدَيْهِ حَتَّى يُحَاذِيَ بِهِمَا مَنْكِبَيْهِ كَمَا صَنَعَ عِنْدَ افْتِتَاحِ الصَّلَاةِ ثُمَّ صَنَعَ مِثْلَ ذَلِكَ فِي بَقِيَّةِ صَلَاتِهِ حَتَّى إِذَا كَانَتْ قَعْدَةُ السَّجْدَةِ الَّتِي فِيهَا التَّسْلِيمُ أَخَّرَ رِجْلَهُ الْيُسْرَى وَقَعَدَ مُتَوَرِّكًا عَلَى شِقِّهِ الْأَيْسَرِ» قَالُوا جَمِيعًا هَكَذَا كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ يُصَلِّي

✧ I heard Abu Humayd al-Sa'idi among ten of the Companions of the Prophet ﷺ, one of them being Abu Qatadah. Abu Humayd said, 'I am the most knowledgeable among you concerning the prayer of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ.' They said to him, '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 every bone settled in its position, straight. Then he recited. Then he said takbir and raised his hands until they were level with his shoulders, and bowed and placed his palms on his knees. Then he stood straight, not lowering his head nor raising it. Then he raised his head and said, "Allah hears those who praise Him," and raised his hands until they were level with his shoulders, straight. Then he said, "Allahu Akbar," then went down to the ground and kept his hands away from his sides. Then he raised his head and folded his left leg and sat on it, and spread the toes of his feet when he prostrated. Then he returned and prostrated, and raised his head and said, "Allahu Akbar," and folded his left leg and sat on it until every bone returned to its position, straight. Then he did in the other rak'ah the same. When he stood up from the two rak'ahs, he said takbir and raised his hands until they were level with his shoulders, just as he did at the beginning of the prayer. Then he did the same in the rest of his prayer, until when it was the sitting of the prostration in which there is the taslim, he moved his left leg back and sat mutawarrikan on his left side.' They all said, 'This is how the Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to pray.'

لعل عبد الحميد بن جعفر وهم فيه
machine translationPerhaps ʿAbd al-Ḥamīd b. Jaʿfar made an error (wahm) in it.
in صحيح ابن حبان, p. 1880 - M. ibn Ḥibbān al-Bustī
سمع هذا الحديث محمد بن عمرو من أبي حميد وسمعه من عباس بن سهل بن سعد عن أبيه فالطريقان محفوظان
machine translationMuḥammad b. ʿAmr heard this hadith from Abū Ḥumayd, and he also heard it from ʿAbbās b. Sahl b. Saʿd, from his father. So both routes are preserved (maḥfūẓ).
in صحيح ابن حبان, p. 1880 - Taḥāwī
محمد هذا لم يدرك أبا قتادة على الصحيح

in صحيح ابن حبان, p. 1880 - M. ibn Ḥibbān al-Bustī
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. 1880 - 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. 1880 - Badr al-Dīn al-ʿAynī
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. 1880 - 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).
