حَدَّثَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ الْحَسَنِ الْمِصِّيصِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا حَجَّاجٌ، عَنِ ابْنِ جُرَيْجٍ، عَنْ زِيَادٍ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَجْلاَنَ، عَنْ عَامِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ الزُّبَيْرِ، أَنَّهُ ذَكَرَ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ كَانَ يُشِيرُ بِأُصْبُعِهِ إِذَا دَعَا وَلاَ يُحَرِّكُهَا ‏.‏ قَالَ ابْنُ جُرَيْجٍ وَزَادَ عَمْرُو بْنُ دِينَارٍ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي عَامِرٌ عَنْ أَبِيهِ أَنَّهُ رَأَى النَّبِيَّ يَدْعُو كَذَلِكَ وَيَتَحَامَلُ النَّبِيُّ بِيَدِهِ الْيُسْرَى عَلَى فَخِذِهِ الْيُسْرَى

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about how the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) used to supplicate. He would point with his finger at the end of tashahhud and brace himself with his left hand on his left knee. Tashahhud is a part of salat or prayer in which one testifies that Allah is One and Muhammad is His messenger. It is important for Muslims to follow this posture when they are supplicating as it was done by our beloved prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him). This hadith teaches us that we should always follow what our prophet did in order to gain rewards from Allah Almighty. We should also strive to learn more about Islamic teachings so that we can practice them correctly in our lives.
