حَدَّثَنَا حُسَيْنُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ أَخْبَرَنَا وَکِيعٌ عَنْ ابْنِ أَبِي لَيْلَی عَنْ أَخِيهِ عِيسَی عَنْ الْحَکَمِ عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ أَبِي لَيْلَی عَنْ الْبَرَائِ بْنِ عَازِبٍ قَالَ رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ رَفَعَ يَدَيْهِ حِينَ افْتَتَحَ الصَّلَاةَ ثُمَّ لَمْ يَرْفَعْهُمَا حَتَّی انْصَرَفَ قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُد هَذَا الْحَدِيثُ لَيْسَ بِصَحِيحٍ
سنن ابودوٗد · Hadith 752
Narrated Al-Bara ibn Azib: I saw that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ raised his hands when he began prayer, but he did not raise them until he finished (prayer). Abu Dawud said: This tradition is not sound.
