Muwatta Malik 394

Authentic graded by Salim al-Hilali Companion’s words (mawquf) Muwatta Malik 394

وَحَدَّثَنِي عَنْ مَالِكٍ، عَنْ نَافِعٍ، أَنَّ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ عُمَرَ، كَانَ يَقُولُ مَنْ وَضَعَ جَبْهَتَهُ بِالأَرْضِ فَلْيَضَعْ كَفَّيْهِ عَلَى الَّذِي يَضَعُ عَلَيْهِ جَبْهَتَهُ ثُمَّ إِذَا رَفَعَ فَلْيَرْفَعْهُمَا فَإِنَّ الْيَدَيْنِ تَسْجُدَانِ كَمَا يَسْجُدُ الْوَجْهُ ‏.‏

Yahya related to me from Malik from Nafi that Abdullah ibn Umar used to say, "When one of you puts his forehead on the ground he should put his palms on the place where he puts his forehead. Then, when he rises, he should raise them, for the hands prostrate just as the face prostrates."

Reported by Malik (No. 394).

Classical commentary

Abu al-Walid al-Baji — Al-Muntaqa

( ش ) : قَوْلُهُ إِذَا وَضَعَ جَبْهَتَهُ بِالْأَرْضِ فَلْيَضَعْ يَدَيْهِ وَإِذَا رَفَعَ فَلْيَرْفَعْهُمَا أَنَّ حُكْمَ الْيَدَيْنِ فِي السُّجُودِ فِي الْوَضْعِ وَالرَّفْعِ حُكْمُ الْوَجْهِ وَلَا يُشَارِكُهُمَا فِي الْوَضْعِ وَالرَّفْعِ سَائِرُ الْأَعْضَاءِ فَمَنْ كَانَتْ جَبْهَتُهُ أَوْ يَدَاهُ بِالْأَرْضِ لِمَعْنًى مِنْ الْمَعَانِي لَمْ يُجْزِهِ سُجُودُهُ إِلَّا بَعْدَ رَفْعِهَا وَوَضْعِهَا لِلسُّجُودِ ثُمَّ لَا بُدَّ مِنْ رَفْعِهَا عِنْدَ كَمَالِ السُّجُودِ بِخِلَافِ الرُّكْبَتَيْنِ وَالْقَدَمَيْنِ فَإِنَّهُمَا يُجْتَزَأُ فِيهِمَا بِكَوْنِهِمَا فِي الْأَرْضِ وَلَا يُشْتَرَطُ وَضَعْهُمَا بِالْأَرْضِ لِلسُّجُودِ وَلَا رَفْعُهُمَا بَعْدَ السُّجُودِ عَنْ الْأَرْضِ.…

Nafi’ told how Ibn ‘Umar used to say, “He who puts his forehead on the ground should put the palms of his hands on the place where he put his forehead, then when he raises himself he should raise them, for the hands perform prostration just as the face does.” Malik transmitted it.
