818. Narrated Abū Qilāba: Once Mālik bin Ḥuwaīrīth رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ said to his friends, "Shall I show you how Allāh's Messenger ﷺ used to offer his Ṣalāt (prayers)?" And it was not the time for any of the compulsory congregational prayers. So he stood up (for the Ṣalāt) bowed and said the Takbīr, then he raised up his head and remained standing for a while and then prostrated and raised up his head for a while (sat up for a while). He offered Ṣalāt like our Sheikh 'Amr bin Salama. Ayyūb said, "The latter used to do a thing which I did not see the people doing, i.e., he used to sit between the third and the fourth Rak'a."

Arabic text

818 - حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو النُّعْمَانِ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ، عَنْ أَيُّوبَ، عَنْ أَبِي قِلاَبَةَ، أَنَّ مَالِكَ بْنَ الحُوَيْرِثِ، قَالَ لِأَصْحَابِهِ: أَلاَ أُنَبِّئُكُمْ صَلاَةَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ؟ قَالَ: وَذَاكَ فِي غَيْرِ حِينِ صَلاَةٍ، فَقَامَ، ثُمَّ رَكَعَ فَكَبَّرَ، ثُمَّ رَفَعَ رَأْسَهُ، فَقَامَ هُنَيَّةً، ثُمَّ سَجَدَ، ثُمَّ رَفَعَ رَأْسَهُ هُنَيَّةً، فَصَلَّى صَلاَةَ عَمْرِو بْنِ سَلِمَةَ شَيْخِنَا هَذَا، قَالَ أَيُّوبُ: كَانَ يَفْعَلُ شَيْئًا لَمْ أَرَهُمْ يَفْعَلُونَهُ كَانَ يَقْعُدُ فِي الثَّالِثَةِ وَالرَّابِعَةِ،
