أَخْبَرَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ حُجْرٍ قَالَ أَنْبَأَنَا إِسْمَعِيلُ عَنْ سَعِيدٍ عَنْ قَتَادَةَ عَنْ نَصْرِ بْنِ عَاصِمٍ اللَّيْثِيِّ عَنْ مَالِکِ بْنِ الْحُوَيْرِثِ قَالَ رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَرْفَعُ يَدَيْهِ إِذَا کَبَّرَ وَإِذَا رَکَعَ وَإِذَا رَفَعَ رَأْسَهُ مِنْ الرُّکُوعِ حَتَّی بَلَغَتَا فُرُوعَ أُذُنَيْهِ
سنن نسائی · Hadith 1029
It was narrated that Malik bin Al-Huwairith said: “I saw the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم raise his hands until they reached the highest part of his ears, when he said the Takbir, when he bowed and when he raised his head from bowing.” (Sahih)
