English translation

747. It was reported from 'Alqamah, who said: "Abdullāh (bin Mas'ūd) said: 'The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ taught us the prayer. So he would say the Takbīr and raise his hands. And when he went into Rukū', he would clasp his hands between his knees.' This reached Sa'd[2] so he said: 'My brother has spoken the truth; we used to do this (in the past), then we were commanded to do this' — meaning holding on to the knees." (Saḥīḥ)

747 - حَدَّثَنَا عُثْمَانُ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ إِدْرِيسَ، عَنْ عَاصِمِ بْنِ كُلَيْبٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ الْأَسْوَدِ، عَنْ عَلْقَمَةَ، قَالَ: قَالَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ: «عَلَّمَنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ الصَّلَاةَ فَكَبَّرَ وَرَفَعَ يَدَيْهِ فَلَمَّا رَكَعَ طَبَّقَ يَدَيْهِ بَيْنَ رُكْبَتَيْهِ» قَالَ: فَبَلَغَ ذَلِكَ سَعْدًا، فَقَالَ: صَدَقَ أَخِي، قَدْ كُنَّا نَفْعَلُ هَذَا ثُمَّ أَمَرَنَا بِهَذَا يَعْنِي «الْإِمْسَاكَ عَلَى الرُّكْبَتَيْنِ»

Commentary

The order of clasping of both hands together between the knees was [1] One of the narrators who narrated it from his father. [2] Sa'd bin Abī Waqqāṣ. abrogated, and this is agreed upon by the scholars after Ibn Mas'ūd, and in accordance with what is reported from the remainder of the Companions.
