• محمد ابن سيد الناس اليعمري

  حاديث وضع اليدين قبل الركبتين أرجح وقال ينبغي أن يكون حديث أبي هريرة داخلا في الحسن على رسم الترمذي لسلامة رواته عن الجرح

  machine translationThe hadiths about placing the hands before the knees are preferable. He said: the hadith of Abū Hurayrah ought to be included among the fair (ḥasan) hadiths according to the method of al-Tirmidhī, because its narrators are free from criticism (jarḥ). Report a problem

• ابن التركماني علي بن عثمان المصري

  الحديث المذكور أولا يعني وليضع يديه ثم ركبتيه دلالة قولية وقد تأيد بحديث ابن عمر

• أبو بكر ابن العربي

  رجح في عارضة الأحوذي حديث أبي هريرة على حديث وائل من وجه آخر فقال الهيئة التي رأى مالك وهي الهيئة التي مروية في حديث أبي هريرة منقولة في صلاة أهل المدينة فترجحت بذلك على غيره

  machine translationIn ʿĀriḍat al-Aḥwadhī, he gave preference to the hadith of Abū Hurayrah over the hadith of Wāʾil from another angle. He said: the posture that Mālik held, which is the posture narrated in the hadith of Abū Hurayrah, is transmitted in the practice of the people of Medina in prayer, so it is preferred over others on that basis.
