Sunan Abi DawudHadith Number 845
حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ مَعِينٍ، حَدَّثَنَا حَجَّاجُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ جُرَيْجٍ، أَخْبَرَنِي أَبُو الزُّبَيْرِ، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ طَاوُسًا، يَقُولُ قُلْنَا لاِبْنِ عَبَّاسٍ فِي الإِقْعَاءِ عَلَى الْقَدَمَيْنِ فِي السُّجُودِ . فَقَالَ هِيَ السُّنَّةُ . قَالَ قُلْنَا إِنَّا لَنَرَاهُ جَفَاءً بِالرَّجُلِ . فَقَالَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ هِيَ سُنَّةُ نَبِيِّكَ صلى الله عليه وسلم .
Tawus Narrated from:
We asked Ibn ‘Abbas about sitting on heels between the two prostrations. He said: It is the sunnah. We said: We look upon it as a pressure on the foot. He said: This is the sunnah of your Prophet(ﷺ)
[1] The sitting described here between two prostrations is to sit with the buttocks on the heels and the soles of the feet while the tops of the feet are flat on the ground, or to sit on the heels only, while the toes are planted in the same manner as they are during the prostration.Reference : Sunan Abi Dawud 845In-book reference : Book 2, Hadith 455English translation : Book 2, Hadith 844
