1662. It was narrated that ‘Aîshah said: “I saw the Prophet ﷺ praying while sitting cross-legged.” (Da’if) Abû ‘Abdur-Rahmân (An-Nasâ’î) said: I do not know of anyone who reported this Hadîth other than Abû Dâwûd,[1] and he is trustworthy, and I do not consider this Hadîth to be but a mistake, and Allâh knows best.
1661 - أَخْبَرَنَا هَارُونُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو دَاوُدَ الْحَفَرِيُّ، عَنْ حَفْصٍ، عَنْ حُمَيْدٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ شَقِيقٍ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ قَالَتْ: «رَأَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يُصَلِّي مُتَرَبِّعًا»، قَالَ: أَبُو عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ: «لَا أَعْلَمُ أَحَدًا رَوَى هَذَا الْحَدِيثَ غَيْرَ أَبِي دَاوُدَ وَهُوَ ثِقَةٌ، وَلَا أَحْسِبُ هَذَا الْحَدِيثَ إِلَّا خَطَأً وَاللَّهُ تَعَالَى أَعْلَمُ»

[1] That is Abû Dâwûd Al-Ĥafarî, who reported it from Ĥafs, from Ĥumaid, from ‘Abdullâh in Shaqîq, from ‘Aîshah.
Although Imâm An-Nasâ'î has considered this Hadîth an error, there are also other narrations that support this Hadîth. Therefore, it is sound.
