أَخْبَرَنَا يَعْقُوبُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَی عَنْ ابْنِ عَجْلَانَ عَنْ عَامِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ الزُّبَيْرِ عَنْ أَبِيهِ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ کَانَ إِذَا قَعَدَ فِي التَّشَهُّدِ وَضَعَ کَفَّهُ الْيُسْرَی عَلَی فَخِذِهِ الْيُسْرَی وَأَشَارَ بِالسَّبَّابَةِ لَا يُجَاوِزُ بَصَرُهُ إِشَارَتَهُ
سنن نسائی · Hadith 1280
It was narrated from ‘Amir bin ‘Abdullah bin Az-Zubair, from his father, that when the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم sat to say the Tashahhud, he placed his left hand on his left thigh and pointed with his forefinger, and his gaze did not go beyond the finger with which he was pointing.
