Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ حَدَّثَنَا الْأَعْمَشُ عَنْ عُمَارَةَ بْنِ عُمَيْرٍ عَنْ أَبِي مَعْمَرٍ قَالَ قُلْنَا لِخَبَّابٍ بِأَيِّ شَيْءٍ كُنْتُمْ تَعْرِفُونَ قِرَاءَةَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي الظُّهْرِ وَالْعَصْرِ قَالَ بِاضْطِرَابِ لِحْيَتِهِ.
English Translation
Waki' told us, al-A'mash told us, from 'Umarah ibn 'Umayr, from Abu Ma'mar, who said: We said to Khabbab: "By what did you used to recognize the recitation of the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, in the noon and afternoon prayers?" He said: "By the movement of his beard."
