أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّی قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مُعَاذُ بْنُ هِشَامٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي عَنْ قَتَادَةَ عَنْ نَصْرِ بْنِ عَاصِمٍ عَنْ مَالِکِ بْنِ الْحُوَيْرِثِ أَنَّ نَبِيَّ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ کَانَ إِذَا دَخَلَ فِي الصَّلَاةِ فَذَکَرَ نَحْوَهُ وَزَادَ فِيهِ وَإِذَا رَکَعَ فَعَلَ مِثْلَ ذَلِکَ وَإِذَا رَفَعَ رَأْسَهُ مِنْ الرُّکُوعِ فَعَلَ مِثْلَ ذَلِکَ وَإِذَا رَفَعَ رَأْسَهُ مِنْ السُّجُودِ فَعَلَ مِثْلَ ذَلِکَ
سنن نسائی · Hadith 1092
It was narrated from Malik bin Al-Huwairith that he saw the Prophet of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم raise his hands when he started to pray, and he narrated a similar report and added: “When he bowed he did likewise, and when he raised his head from bowing he did likewise, and when he raised his head from prostration he did likewise.” (Sahih).
