734. (There is another chain) from Fulaih, who narrated from 'Abbās bin Sahl who said: "Abū Humaid, Abū Usaid, Sahl bin Sa'd, and Muḥammad bin Maslamah all were together (at a gathering), and they mentioned the prayer of the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ. Abū Humaid said: 'I am the most knowledgeable of you regarding the prayer of the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ...' and he mentioned part of the above narration (no. 733). He also said: "Then he (ﷺ) went into Rukū', and placed his hands on his knees, as if he were grabbing them. And he bent his hands (arms) such that they were away from his sides. Then he prostrated, and placed his nose and forehead (on the ground), and kept his hands (arms) at a distance from his sides. He placed his hands to the level of his shoulders, then raised his head, until every joint returned to its place. (He did this) until he finished (the prayer), then he sat, placing the left foot on the ground, and making the toes of the right foot face the Qiblah. He put his right palm on his right thigh, and his left palm on his left thigh, and pointed with his finger." (Sahih) Abū Dāwūd said: 'Utbah bin Abī Ḥakīm reported this Hadīth from 'Abdullāh bin 'Eisā, from Al-'Abbās bin Sahl, and he did not mention the sitting on the buttocks (At-Tawarruk). And Al-Hasan bin Al-Hurr mentioned the sitting similar to the Hadīth of Fulaiḥ and 'Utbah.

734 - حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ حَنْبَلٍ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْمَلِكِ بْنُ عَمْرٍو، أَخْبَرَنِي فُلَيْحٌ، حَدَّثَنِي عَبَّاسُ بْنُ سَهْلٍ، قَالَ: اجْتَمَعَ أَبُو حُمَيْدٍ، وَأَبُو أُسَيْدٍ، وَسَهْلُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ، وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ مَسْلَمَةَ، فَذَكَرُوا صَلَاةَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ أَبُو حُمَيْدٍ: أَنَا أَعْلَمُكُمْ بِصَلَاةِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَذَكَرَ بَعْضَ هَذَا، قَالَ: "ثُمَّ رَكَعَ فَوَضَعَ يَدَيْهِ عَلَى رُكْبَتَيْهِ كَأَنَّهُ قَابِضٌ عَلَيْهِمَا، وَوَتَّرَ يَدَيْهِ فَتَجَافَى عَنْ جَنْبَيْهِ، قَالَ: ثُمَّ سَجَدَ فَأَمْكَنَ أَنْفَهُ وَجَبْهَتَهُ وَنَحَّى يَدَيْهِ عَنْ جَنْبَيْهِ وَوَضَعَ كَفَّيْهِ حَذْوَ مَنْكِبَيْهِ، ثُمَّ رَفَعَ رَأْسَهُ حَتَّى رَجَعَ كُلُّ عَظْمٍ فِي مَوْضِعِهِ حَتَّى فَرَغَ، ثُمَّ جَلَسَ فَافْتَرَشَ رِجْلَهُ الْيُسْرَى وَأَقْبَلَ بِصَدْرِ الْيُمْنَى عَلَى قِبْلَتِهِ وَوَضَعَ كَفَّهُ الْيُمْنَى عَلَى رُكْبَتِهِ الْيُمْنَى وَكَفَّهُ الْيُسْرَى عَلَى رُكْبَتِهِ الْيُسْرَى " وَأَشَارَ بِأُصْبُعِهِ، قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُدَ: رَوَى هَذَا الْحَدِيثَ عُتْبَةُ بْنُ أَبِي حَكِيمٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عِيسَى، عَنِ الْعَبَّاسِ بْنِ سَهْلٍ، لَمْ يَذْكُرِ التَّوَرُّكَ وَذَكَرَ نَحْوَ حَدِيثِ فُلَيْحٍ وَذَكَرَ الْحَسَنُ بْنُ الْحُرِّ نَحْوَ جِلْسَةِ حَدِيثِ فُلَيْحٍ، وَعُتْبَةَ،
