Prostration of the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH)

SUMMARY: The Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) was seen prostrating with his knees on the ground before his hands and raising his hands before his knees when he got up.

Wa'il bin Hujr narrated: "I saw Allah's Messenger when he prostrated placing his knees (on the ground) before his hands, and when he got up, he raised his hands before his knees".
حَدَّثَنَا سَلَمَةُ بْنُ شَبِيبٍ، وَأَحْمَدُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ الدَّوْرَقِيُّ، وَالْحَسَنُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ الْحُلْوَانِيُّ، وَعَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مُنِيرٍ، وَغَيْرُ، وَاحِدٍ، قَالُوا حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ هَارُونَ، أَخْبَرَنَا شَرِيكٌ، عَنْ عَاصِمِ بْنِ كُلَيْبٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ وَائِلِ بْنِ حُجْرٍ، قَالَ رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ إِذَا سَجَدَ يَضَعُ رُكْبَتَيْهِ قَبْلَ يَدَيْهِ وَإِذَا نَهَضَ رَفَعَ يَدَيْهِ قَبْلَ رُكْبَتَيْهِ ‏.‏ قَالَ زَادَ الْحَسَنُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ فِي حَدِيثِهِ قَالَ يَزِيدُ بْنُ هَارُونَ وَلَمْ يَرْوِ شَرِيكٌ عَنْ عَاصِمِ بْنِ كُلَيْبٍ إِلاَّ هَذَا الْحَدِيثَ ‏.‏ قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ غَرِيبٌ لاَ نَعْرِفُ أَحَدًا رَوَاهُ مِثْلَ هَذَا عَنْ شَرِيكٍ ‏.‏ وَالْعَمَلُ عَلَيْهِ عِنْدَ أَكْثَرِ أَهْلِ الْعِلْمِ يَرَوْنَ أَنْ يَضَعَ الرَّجُلُ رُكْبَتَيْهِ قَبْلَ يَدَيْهِ وَإِذَا نَهَضَ رَفَعَ يَدَيْهِ قَبْلَ رُكْبَتَيْهِ ‏.‏ وَرَوَى هَمَّامٌ عَنْ عَاصِمٍ هَذَا مُرْسَلاً وَلَمْ يَذْكُرْ فِيهِ وَائِلَ بْنَ حُجْرٍ

QUICK LESSONS:
Perform prostration during prayer with your knees placed on the ground before your hands and raise your hands before your knees when getting up from prostration .

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith narrated by Wa’il bin Hujr describes how the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) performed prostration during prayer. He would place his knees on the ground before placing his hands and when he got up from prostration he would raise his hands before raising his knees. This is an important part of prayer as it is a physical demonstration of humility and submission to Allah SWT. It also serves as a reminder to believers that they should always be humble in their dealings with others and strive to submit themselves to Allah SWT in all aspects of life.

The act of prostration also serves as a reminder that we are all equal in front of Allah SWT regardless of our social or economic status; everyone must bow down in humility when praying to Him. Furthermore, it teaches us that we should always strive for excellence in our worship and never take it lightly or become complacent about it.
