And from Ayyash ibn Sahl As-Sa’idi, who was in a gathering with his father—a companion of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ—and in the gathering were Abu Huraira, Abu Usayd, Abu Humayd As-Sa’idi, and other Ansar. They discussed the prayer, and Abu Humayd said, “I will show you how the Messenger of Allah ﷺ prayed, as I followed him closely.” They said, “Show us.” So he stood to pray while they watched. He said the Takbir and raised his hands at the beginning of the Takbir, then mentioned a long hadith in which he described that when he raised his head from the second prostration of the first Rak’ah, he stood without sitting.
