Description of prostration

It was narrated that Abu Ishaq said:

"Al-Bara' described the prostration to us. He places his hands on the ground and raised his posterior and said: 'This is what I saw the Messenger of Allah ﷺ doing."

أَخْبَرَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ حُجْرٍ الْمَرْوَزِيُّ، قَالَ أَنْبَأَنَا شَرِيكٌ، عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ، قَالَ وَصَفَ لَنَا الْبَرَاءُ السُّجُودَ فَوَضَعَ يَدَيْهِ بِالأَرْضِ وَرَفَعَ عَجِيزَتَهُ وَقَالَ هَكَذَا رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَفْعَلُ .

It was narrated from Al-Bara' that:

When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ prayed he would Jakhkha.

أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدَةُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحِيمِ الْمَرْوَزِيُّ، قَالَ أَنْبَأَنَا ابْنُ شُمَيْلٍ، - هُوَ النَّضْرُ - قَالَ أَنْبَأَنَا يُونُسُ بْنُ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ، عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ، عَنِ الْبَرَاءِ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ كَانَ إِذَا صَلَّى جَخَّى .

It was narrated from Abdullah bin Malik bin Buhainah that:

When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ prayed he held his arms out so much that the whiteness of his armpits appeared.

أَخْبَرَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا بَكْرٌ، عَنْ جَعْفَرِ بْنِ رَبِيعَةَ، عَنِ الأَعْرَجِ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مَالِكِ ابْنِ بُحَيْنَةَ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ كَانَ إِذَا صَلَّى فَرَّجَ بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ حَتَّى يَبْدُوَ بَيَاضُ إِبْطَيْهِ .

It was narrated that Abu Hurairah said:

"If I were in front of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ I would be able to see the whiteness of his armpits." (One of the narrators) Abu Mijlaz said: "It is as if he said that because he was praying."

أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ بَزِيعٍ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مُعْتَمِرُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ، عَنْ عِمْرَانَ، عَنْ أَبِي مِجْلَزٍ، عَنْ بَشِيرِ بْنِ نَهِيكٍ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، قَالَ لَوْ كُنْتُ بَيْنَ يَدَىْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ لأَبْصَرْتُ إِبْطَيْهِ . قَالَ أَبُو مِجْلَزٍ كَأَنَّهُ قَالَ ذَلِكَ لأَنَّهُ فِي صَلاَةٍ .
