اخبرنا سويد بن نصر، قال: انبانا عبد الله بن المبارك، عن زائدة، قال: حدثنا عاصم بن كليب قال: حدثني ابي، ان وائل بن حجر اخبره، قال:" قلت لانظرن إلى صلاة رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم كيف يصلي فنظرت إليه فقام فكبر ورفع يديه حتى حاذتا باذنيه، ثم وضع يده اليمنى على كفه اليسرى والرسغ والساعد فلما اراد ان يركع رفع يديه مثلها قال: ووضع يديه على ركبتيه ثم لما رفع راسه رفع يديه مثلها، ثم سجد فجعل كفيه بحذاء اذنيه، ثم قعد وافترش رجله اليسرى ووضع كفه اليسرى على فخذه وركبته اليسرى وجعل حد مرفقه الايمن على فخذه اليمنى، ثم قبض اثنتين من اصابعه وحلق حلقة، ثم رفع إصبعه فرايته يحركها يدعو بها".
Wa'il bin Hujr said: "I said: 'I am going to watch how the Messenger of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) prays.' So I watched him and he stood and said the takbir, and raised his hands until they were in the level with his ears, then he placed his right hand over his left hand, wrist and lower forearm. When he wanted to bow he raised his hands likewise. Then he prostrated and placed his hands in level with his ears. Then he sat up and placed his left leg under him; he put his left hand on his left thigh and knee, and he put the edge of his right elbow on his right thigh, then he held two of his fingers together and made a circle, and raised his forefinger, and I saw him moving it and supplicating with it."
