Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا كَثِيرُ بْنُ هِشَامٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا جَعْفَرٌ وَعَلِيُّ بْنُ ثَابِتٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا جَعْفَرُ بْنُ بُرْقَانَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ يَعْنِي ابْنَ الْأَصَمِّ عَنْ مَيْمُونَةَ زَوْجِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَتْ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِذَا سَجَدَ جَافَى بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ حَتَّى يَرَى مَنْ خَلْفَهُ وَضَحَ إِبْطَيْهِ.
English Translation
Kathir bin Hisham told us: Ja'far and 'Ali bin Thabit told us: Ja'far bin Burqan told us: Yazid - meaning Ibn al-Asamm - told us, from Maymunah, the wife of the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, who said: "The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, when he prostrated, would spread his arms away from his sides until the one behind him could see the whiteness of his armpits."
