670. In another version of this (no. 669) Hadith, Anas reported: "The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ, when he stood up to pray, he would hold it (the stick) in his right hand, then turn around and say: 'Straighten (your rows); line up your rows,' then he would hold it in his left hand and say, 'Straighten (your rows); line up your rows.'" (Da'if)

Arabic text

670 - حَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ، حَدَّثَنَا حُمَيْدُ بْنُ الْأَسْوَدِ، حَدَّثَنَا مُصْعَبُ بْنُ ثَابِتٍ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ مُسْلِمٍ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ، بِهَذَا الْحَدِيثِ، قَالَ: إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، كَانَ إِذَا قَامَ إِلَى الصَّلَاةِ أَخَذَهُ بِيَمِينِهِ ثُمَّ الْتَفَتَ، فَقَالَ: «اعْتَدِلُوا، سَوُّوا صُفُوفَكُمْ» ثُمَّ أَخَذَهُ بِيَسَارِهِ، فَقَالَ: «اعْتَدِلُوا سَوُّوا صُفُوفَكُمْ»
