Observe proper etiquette while performing acts of worship such as prayer and prostration

This hadith speaks about the etiquette of prostration that was observed by the Prophet. It is narrated that Abu Humaid As-Sa'idi said that when the Prophet fell to the ground during prostration, he held his arms away from his sides and bent his toes. This shows us how important it is to observe proper etiquette while performing acts of worship such as prayer and prostration. We should strive to emulate this example set by our beloved prophet in order to gain maximum benefit from our acts of worship.
