Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى حَدَّثَنَا مَالِكٌ حَدَّثَنِي الزُّهْرِيُّ عَنْ سَالِمٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِذَا افْتَتَحَ الصَّلَاةَ رَفَعَ يَدَيْهِ حَذْوَ مَنْكِبَيْهِ وَإِذَا رَكَعَ صَنَعَ مِثْلَ ذَلِكَ وَإِذَا رَفَعَ رَأْسَهُ مِنْ الرُّكُوعِ صَنَعَ مِثْلَ ذَلِكَ وَإِذَا قَالَ سَمِعَ اللَّهُ لِمَنْ حَمِدَهُ قَالَ رَبَّنَا وَلَكَ الْحَمْدُ وَلَا يَصْنَعُ مِثْلَ ذَلِكَ فِي السُّجُودِ.
English Translation
Yahya narrated to us: Malik narrated to us: al-Zuhri told me, from Salim, from his father, who said: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, when he began the prayer, would raise his hands level with his shoulders; and when he bowed, he did the same; and when he raised his head from bowing, he did the same; and when he said "Allah hears whoever praises Him," he would say "Our Lord, to You be praise," but he did not do that in prostration.
