أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَلِيِّ بْنِ مَيْمُونٍ الرَّقِّيُّ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدٌ وَهُوَ ابْنُ يُوسُفَ الْفِرْيَابِيُّ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ عَنْ عَاصِمِ بْنِ کُلَيْبٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ وَائِلِ بْنِ حُجْرٍ أَنَّهُ رَأَی النَّبِيَّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ جَلَسَ فِي الصَّلَاةِ فَافْتَرَشَ رِجْلَهُ الْيُسْرَی وَوَضَعَ ذِرَاعَيْهِ عَلَی فَخِذَيْهِ وَأَشَارَ بِالسَّبَّابَةِ يَدْعُو بِهَا
سنن نسائی · Hadith 1269
It was narrated from Wa’il bin Hujr that he saw the Prophet صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم sitting during the prayer. He lay his left foot on the ground and placed his forearms on his thighs, and pointed with his forefinger, supplicating with it. (Sahih).
