٢٧٦٥ - حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ الْمَخْزُومِيُّ وَغَيْرُ وَاحِدٍ، قَالُوا: حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ بْنُ عُيَيْنَةَ ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ ، عَنْ عَبَّادِ بْنِ تَمِيمٍ ، عَنْ عَمِّهِ، «أَنَّهُ رَأَى النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مُسْتَلْقِيًا فِي الْمَسْجِدِ» وَاضِعًا إِحْدَى رِجْلَيْهِ عَلَى الْأُخْرَى. هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ. وَعَمُّ عَبَّادِ بْنِ تَمِيمٍ هُوَ عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ زَيْدِ بْنِ عَاصِمٍ الْمَازِنِيُّ.

Therefore the Prophet did not like this type of lying down, as it is narrated in the following chapter.
