أَخْبَرَنَا سُوَيْدُ بْنُ نَصْرٍ قَالَ أَنْبَأَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ الْمُبَارَکِ عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ أَبِي عَرُوبَةَ وَحَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ عَنْ قَتَادَةَ عَنْ أَنَسٍ عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ اعْتَدِلُوا فِي الرُّکُوعِ وَالسُّجُودِ وَلَا يَبْسُطْ أَحَدُکُمْ ذِرَاعَيْهِ کَالْکَلْبِ
