Sayyiduna Mu'adh bin Jabal (may Allah be pleased with him) relates that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "There are two steps: one of them is most beloved to Allah, and the other is the most hated of steps to Allah. As for the step that Allah loves, it is that of a man who sees a gap in the row and fills it. As for the step that Allah hates, it is that when a man wants to stand up (from prostration), he stretches out his right foot, places his hand on it (keeps the left foot firm) and stands up." This hadith is sahih on the condition of Imam Muslim, since he used Baqiyyah (bin al-Walid) as evidence in supporting narrations, yet the two Shaykhs did not record it. When Baqiyyah bin al-Walid narrates from well-known teachers, he is reliable and accepted.

Ibn Abd al-Rahman bin Abza narrates from his father, Sayyiduna Abd al-Rahman bin Abza (may Allah be pleased with him), that when the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) gave the salam (at the end of the prayer), he would say three times in a raised voice: 'Subhanal-Malikil-Quddus' (Glory be to the King, the Most Holy, free of every defect). Abd al-Rahman bin Abza is among those about whom it is established with us that he prayed with the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), although most of his narrations are from Sayyiduna Ubayy bin Ka'b (may Allah be pleased with him) and other Companions. This chain is sahih on the condition of the two Shaykhs, but they did not record it.
