We came to Abu Mas'ud and said to him: 'Tell us about the prayer of the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ).' He stood in front of us and said the takbir, then when he bowed he placed his palms on his knees and put his fingers lower than that, and he held his elbows out from his sides until every part of him had settled. Then he said: Sami' Allahu liman hamidah, Rabbana wa lakal-hamd (Allah hears those who praise Him, our Lord, and to You be the praise), then he stood up until every part of him had settled.

:Telah mengabarkan kepada kami Ishaq bin Ibrahim dia berkata; telah memberitakan kepada kami Abu Mu'awiyah dari Al A'masy dari Sa'ad bin 'Ubaidah dari Al Mustaurid bin Al Ahnaf dari Shilah bin Zufar dari Hudzaifah dia berkata; Aku pemah shalat bersama Rasulullah Shallallahu'alaihi wasallam lalu beliau ruku. Saat ruku beliau membaca Subbhana Rabbiyal 'Adziim (Maha Suci Tuhanku Yang Maha Agung). Sedangkan saat sujud beliau Shallallahu'alaihi wasallam membaca Subbhana Rabbiyal A'laa (Maha Suci Tuhanku Yang Maha Tinggi).
