Arabic text

١٢٦٤ - أَخْبَرَنَا ‌مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَلِيِّ بْنِ مَيْمُونٍ الرَّقِّيُّ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ‌مُحَمَّدٌ - وَهُوَ ابْنُ يُوسُفَ الْفِرْيَابِيُّ -، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ‌سُفْيَانُ ، عَنْ ‌عَاصِمِ بْنِ كُلَيْبٍ ، عَنْ ‌أَبِيهِ ، عَنْ ‌وَائِلِ بْنِ حُجْرٍ أَنَّهُ «رَأَى النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ جَلَسَ فِي الصَّلَاةِ، فَافْتَرَشَ رِجْلَهُ الْيُسْرَى، وَوَضَعَ ذِرَاعَيْهِ عَلَى فَخِذَيْهِ، وَأَشَارَ بِالسَّبَّابَةِ يَدْعُو بِهَا».

Commentary

Contextually, this seems to be the first Tashahhud. Concerning the method of pointing, etc. See Hadīth 1162, 890.
