1429. It was narrated that 'Abdur-Rahmān bin Shibl said: "The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ forbade three things: Pecking like a crow, spreading (the forearms) like a beast of prey,[1] and a man having a place in the mosque in which he usually offers the prayer, like a camel has a place to which it usually goes." (Hasan)
1429 - حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ، ح وَحَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بِشْرٍ بَكْرُ بْنُ خَلَفٍ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، قَالَا: حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْحَمِيدِ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ تَمِيمِ بْنِ مَحْمُودٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ شِبْلٍ، قَالَ: " نَهَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَنْ ثَلَاثٍ: عَنْ نَقْرَةِ الْغُرَابِ، وَعَنْ فِرْشَةِ السَّبُعِ، وَأَنْ يُوَطِّنَ الرَّجُلُ الْمَكَانَ الَّذِي يُصَلِّي فِيهِ كَمَا يُوَطِّنُ الْبَعِيرُ "

[1] "That he spread his forearms in prostration and not raise them from the ground as is done by the wolf, the dog and others." (Explanation by Sindi).
a. 'Pecking like a crow' means hurrying through one's prostrations etc. It is against the spirit of humility and submissiveness – essential ingredients of prayer. We must perform all the recitations and actions of prayer with complete equanimity and composure. b. While going into prostration, we should only place our hands on the ground. Spreading the forearms (until, elbows) on the ground is prohibited.
