English translation

1093. It was narrated from Ibn 'Umar in a Marfū' report that the hands prostrate as the face prostrates, so when one you of puts his face down he should put his hands down, and when he raises (the face) he should raise (the hands) too. (Ṣaḥīḥ)

Arabic text

١٠٩٢ - أَخْبَرَنَا ‌زِيَادُ بْنُ أَيُّوبَ دَلُّوَيْهِ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ‌ابْنُ عُلَيَّةَ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ‌أَيُّوبُ ، عَنْ ‌نَافِعٍ ، عَنِ ‌ابْنِ عُمَرَ رَفَعَهُ قَالَ: «إِنَّ الْيَدَيْنِ تَسْجُدَانِ كَمَا يَسْجُدُ الْوَجْهُ، فَإِذَا وَضَعَ أَحَدُكُمْ وَجْهَهُ فَلْيَضَعْ يَدَيْهِ، وَإِذَا رَفَعَهُ فَلْيَرْفَعْهُمَا».

Commentary

The objective is to demonstrate that it is not enough to place the face on the ground, but the hands should also be put on the ground around the face, so that their prostration also occurs. There is elucidation of this matter in the upcoming narration.
