Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الصَّمَدِ حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ حَدَّثَنَا حُمَيْدٌ عَنْ بَكْرٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ رَبَاحٍ عَنْ أَبِي قَتَادَةَ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَانَ إِذَا عَرَّسَ بِلَيْلٍ اضْطَجَعَ عَلَى يَمِينِهِ وَإِذَا عَرَّسَ قَبْلَ الصُّبْحِ نَصَبَ ذِرَاعَيْهِ وَوَضَعَ رَأْسَهُ بَيْنَ كَفَّيْهِ.

'Abd al-Samad narrated to us, Hammad narrated to us, Humayd narrated to us, from Bakr, from 'Abdullah ibn Rabah, from Abu Qatadah, that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him), when he halted for rest at night, would lie on his right side. And when he halted shortly before dawn, he would prop up his forearms and place his head between his palms.
