English translation

1032. It was narrated that 'Abdullâh said: "The Messenger of Allâh ﷺ taught us the prayer. He stood up and said the Takbîr, and when he wanted to bow, he put his hands together and put his hands between his knees and bowed." News of that reached Sa'd and he said: "My brother has spoken the truth. We used to do that, then we were commanded to do this," meaning, to hold the knees. (Sahîh)

Arabic text

1031 - أَخْبَرَنَا نُوحُ بْنُ حَبِيبٍ، قَالَ: أَنْبَأَنَا ابْنُ إِدْرِيسَ، عَنْ عَاصِمِ بْنِ كُلَيْبٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ الْأَسْوَدِ، عَنْ عَلْقَمَةَ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ قَالَ: «عَلَّمَنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ الصَّلَاةَ فَقَامَ فَكَبَّرَ، فَلَمَّا أَرَادَ أَنْ يَرْكَعَ طَبَّقَ يَدَيْهِ بَيْنَ رُكْبَتَيْهِ وَرَكَعَ»، فَبَلَغَ ذَلِكَ سَعْدًا، فَقَالَ: صَدَقَ أَخِي قَدْ كُنَّا نَفْعَلُ هَذَا ثُمَّ أُمِرْنَا بِهَذَا يَعْنِي: الْإِمْسَاكَ بِالرُّكَبِ

Commentary

This method is called Tatbiq, which is superseded. But Ibn Mas'ud did not come to know about it. That is why he acted in this manner. But none of the jurists of the Muslim nation acknowledged this view of his, to the extent that not even the Hanafis acknowledge it, even though they generally do not reject his views.
