أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّی قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مُعَاذُ بْنُ مُعَاذٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا زُهَيْرٌ عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَقَ عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ الْأَسْوَدِ عَنْ الْأَسْوَدِ وَعَلْقَمَةَ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ قَالَ رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يُکَبِّرُ فِي کُلِّ خَفْضٍ وَرَفْعٍ وَقِيَامٍ وَقُعُودٍ وَيُسَلِّمُ عَنْ يَمِينِهِ وَعَنْ شِمَالِهِ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْکُمْ وَرَحْمَةُ اللَّهِ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْکُمْ وَرَحْمَةُ اللَّهِ حَتَّی يُرَی بَيَاضُ خَدِّهِ وَرَأَيْتُ أَبَا بَکْرٍ وَعُمَرَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا يَفْعَلَانِ ذَلِکَ
سنن نسائی · Hadith 1324
It was narrated that ‘Abdullah said: “I saw the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم saying the Takbir every time he went down or came up, or stood or sat, and he said the Salam to his right and to his left: As-salamu ‘alaykum wa rahrnatullah, as-salamu ‘alaykum wa ra (Peace be upon you and the mercy of Allah, peace be upon you and the mercy of Allah), until the whiteness of his cheek could be seen. And I saw Abu Bakr and ‘Umar, may Allah be pleased with them, doing likewise.” (Sahih)
