English translation

783. It was reported from Abū Al-Jawzā’ from ‘Aishah, that she said: “The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ would start the prayer with the Takbīr, and by reciting: All praise is due to Allāh, the Lord of all that exists...[2] And when he would go into Rukū’, he would not raise his head, nor would he hang it down, but it would be between these two (extremes). And when he would raise his head up from Rukū’, he would not go into prostration until he would stand up straight. And when he would raise his head up from prostration, he would not go into prostration until he had sat down perfectly. And he would say the Taḥiyāt after every two Rak’ahs. And when he would sit, he would place his left foot horizontally (on the ground), and his right one would be straight (vertical). And he would forbid the squatting of Shaitān,[1] and the spreading of the predator.[2] And he would complete the prayer with the Taslīm.” (Sahīh)

Arabic text

783 - حَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْوَارِثِ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، عَنْ حُسَيْنٍ الْمُعَلِّمِ، عَنْ بُدَيْلِ بْنِ مَيْسَرَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي الْجَوْزَاءِ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ، قَالَتْ: " كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَفْتَتِحُ الصَّلَاةَ بِالتَّكْبِيرِ وَالْقِرَاءَةِ بِ {الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ رَبِّ الْعَالَمِينَ} [الفاتحة: 2]، وَكَانَ إِذَا رَكَعَ لَمْ يُشَخِّصْ رَأْسَهُ وَلَمْ يُصَوِّبْهُ وَلَكِنْ بَيْنَ ذَلِكَ، وَكَانَ إِذَا رَفَعَ رَأْسَهُ مِنَ الرُّكُوعِ لَمْ يَسْجُدْ حَتَّى يَسْتَوِيَ قَائِمًا، وَكَانَ يَقُولُ فِي كُلِّ رَكْعَتَيْنِ: التَّحِيَّاتُ، وَكَانَ إِذَا جَلَسَ يَفْرِشُ رِجْلَهُ الْيُسْرَى وَيَنْصِبُ رِجْلَهُ الْيُمْنَى، وَكَانَ يَنْهَى عَنْ عَقِبِ الشَّيْطَانِ، وَعَنْ فَرْشَةِ السَّبُعِ وَكَانَ يَخْتِمُ الصَّلَاةَ بِالتَّسْلِيمِ "
