Hazrat Salim Barad says that we went to the house of Hazrat Abu Masood and requested him to teach us the prayer of the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him. He stood before us for prayer, then he bowed (in ruku) and placed his palms on his knees and his fingers below his knees. He kept his elbows away from his body in such a way that every part of the body became straight. Then he raised his head and said "Sami Allahu liman Hamidah." Then he stood in such a way that every part of the body was in balance, then he performed prostration (sajdah) and did the same in prostration. Then he performed two units (rak'ahs) of prayer. When he finished, he said that we saw the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, praying in this manner.
