English translation

790. Narrated Muṣ'ab bin Sa'd: I offered Ṣalāt (prayer) beside my father (Sa'd bin Abī Waqqas رضي الله عنه) and approximated both my hands and placed them in between the knees. My father told me not to do so and said, "We used to do the same but we were forbidden (by the Prophet ﷺ) to do so and were ordered to place the hands on the knees."

Arabic text

790 - حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الوَلِيدِ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنْ أَبِي يَعْفُورٍ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ مُصْعَبَ بْنَ سَعْدٍ، يَقُولُ: صَلَّيْتُ إِلَى جَنْبِ أَبِي، فَطَبَّقْتُ بَيْنَ كَفَّيَّ، ثُمَّ وَضَعْتُهُمَا بَيْنَ فَخِذَيَّ، فَنَهَانِي أَبِي، وَقَالَ: كُنَّا نَفْعَلُهُ، «فَنُهِينَا عَنْهُ وَأُمِرْنَا أَنْ نَضَعَ أَيْدِينَا عَلَى الرُّكَبِ»
