Abd Allah narrated to us, he said: Ibrahim ibn al-Hajjaj and Muhammad ibn Aban al-Wasiti narrated to us, they said: Aban narrated to us, Budayl narrated to us, the like of it...

Yazid narrated to us, he said: Aban ibn Yazid al-‘Attar informed us, from Budayl ibn Maysarah, he said: Abu ‘Atiyyah, a freed slave of ours, narrated to me, he said: Malik ibn al-Huwayrith used to come to us in our place of prayer, and he mentioned the hadith, meaning the hadith of Abu.

Hazrat Malik bin Huwairith narrates that the Prophet (peace be upon him), at the beginning of the prayer, while bowing into ruku and when raising his head from ruku, would raise his hands up to the level of his earlobes.

Hazrat Malik bin Huwairith narrates that he saw the Prophet (peace be upon him) raising his hands at the beginning of the prayer, while bowing (ruku), and when raising his head from ruku, until his hands would be at the level of his earlobes.

It is narrated from Hazrat Malik bin Huwairith that while performing bowing and prostration, he would raise his hands up to the level of his earlobes.

Abu Atiyyah says that once Hazrat Malik bin Huwairith came to our mosque. When the prayer was established, the people requested him to lead the prayer, but he refused and said, "Let one of your own men lead the prayer." (Later I will tell you a hadith explaining why I am not leading you in prayer.) After the prayer, he said that the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) said: "When a person visits a people, he should not lead them in prayer; rather, one of their own men should lead them in prayer."

Abu Qilabah says that once Malik bin Huwairith said to his companions, "Shall I not show you how the Prophet (peace be upon him) used to pray?" It was not the time for prayer when he said this. Then he stood up and performed the standing (qiyam) excellently, and performed the bowing (ruku) excellently, then raised his head and stood straight for a little while, then performed prostration (sajdah), then raised his head, said takbeer while sitting, paused for a little while, and then performed the second prostration. Abu Qilabah says that then he led the prayer in the same way as our sheikh Amr bin Salamah al-Jarmi leads us, and he used to lead prayers during the blessed era of the Prophet (peace be upon him). Ayyub says, "I have seen Amr bin Salamah do something which I do not see you doing: after raising his head from both prostrations, he would sit straight for a little while, then stand up for the first and third rak'ah."

It is narrated from Hazrat Ibn Mughaffal that the Prophet (peace be upon him) forbade throwing pebbles at someone and said that by this neither the enemy is subdued nor any game can be caught; however, it can break a tooth and injure an eye.

It is narrated from Hazrat Abdullah bin Mughaffal that the Prophet (peace be upon him) said: When the time for prayer comes and you are among a flock of goats, then perform the prayer; but if you are in a pen of camels, do not perform the prayer, because they are created from Satan (there is satanic nature in them).

It is narrated from Hazrat Abdullah bin Mughaffal that I heard the Prophet (peace be upon him) reciting the Holy Qur’an on the occasion of the conquest of Makkah. If people had not gathered around me, I would have recited it to you in the manner of the Prophet (peace be upon him). The Prophet (peace be upon him) recited Surah Al-Fath. Muawiyah bin Qurrah says that if I too did not fear people gathering around, I would have demonstrated before you the style described by Hazrat Abdullah bin Mughaffal, showing how the Prophet (peace be upon him) recited.
