Authentic 4 scholars’ grades Jami' at-Tirmidhi 515

Narrator:Umāra ibn Ruwayba ath-Thaqafī

حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مَنِيعٍ، حَدَّثَنَا هُشَيْمٌ، أَخْبَرَنَا حُصَيْنٌ، قَالَ سَمِعْتُ عُمَارَةَ بْنَ، رُوَيْبَةَ الثَّقَفِيَّ، وَبِشْرُ بْنُ مَرْوَانَ، يَخْطُبُ فَرَفَعَ يَدَيْهِ فِي الدُّعَاءِ فَقَالَ عُمَارَةُ قَبَّحَ اللَّهُ هَاتَيْنِ الْيُدَيَّتَيْنِ الْقُصَيِّرَتَيْنِ لَقَدْ رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم

وَمَا يَزِيدُ عَلَى أَنْ يَقُولَ هَكَذَا وَأَشَارَ هُشَيْمٌ بِالسَّبَّابَةِ ‏

Husain narrated:

"I heard Umarah bin Rawaibah Ath-Thaqafi - while Bishr bin Marwan was delivering Khutbah and raising his hands in supplication - so Umarah said: 'May Allah disgrace these two insignificant hands, I have seen Allah's Messenger, and he would not do any more than this;'" and Hushaim (one of the narrators) motioned with his index finger.

Al-Mubarakfuri — Tuhfat al-Ahwadhi

قَوْلُهُ : ( أَخْبَرَنَا هُشَيْمٌ ) بِالتَّصْغِيرِ اِبْنُ بَشِيرٍ بِوَزْنِ عَظِيمٍ الْوَاسِطِيُّ ثِقَةٌ ثَبْتٌ كَثِيرُ التَّدْلِيسِ وَالْإِرْسَالِ , ( أَخْبَرَنَا حُصَيْنٌ ) هُوَ اِبْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ السُّلَمِيُ أَبُو الْهُذَيْلِ الْكُوفِيُّ ثِقَةٌ تَغَيَّرَ حِفْظُهُ فِي الْآخِرِ , ( قَالَ سَمِعْت عُمَارَةَ ) بِضَمِّ الْعَيْنِ ( بْنَ رُوَيْبَةَ ) بِرَاءٍ مُوَحَّدَةٍ مُصَغَّرًا الثَّقَفِيَّ يُكَنَّى بِأَبِي زُهَيْرٍ صَحَابِيٌّ نَزَلَ الْكُوفَةَ ( وَبِشْرُ بْنُ مَرْوَانَ يَخْطُبُ ) جُمْلَةٌ حَالِيَّةٌ وَفِي رِوَايَةِ مُسْلِمٍ أَنَّهُ رَأَى بِشْرَ بْنَ مَرْوَانَ عَلَى الْمِنْبَرِ رَافِعًا يَدَيْهِ ( فَرَفَعَ يَدَيْهِ فِي الدُّعَاءِ ) لَيْسَ فِي رِوَايَةِ مُسْلِمٍ لَفْظُ فِي الدُّعَاءِ ( فَ…

Authentic Sahih Muslim 873c

Allah, disfigure these hands! I have seen Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) gesture no more than this with his hands, and he pointed with his forefinger.

لَقَدْ رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم مَا يَزِيدُ عَلَى أَنْ يَقُولَ بِيَدِهِ هَكَذَا ‏.‏ وَأَشَارَ بِإِصْبَعِهِ الْمُسَبِّحَةِ ‏.‏

Weak Sunan Abu Dawud 1105

I never saw the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) raising his hands and praying on the pulpit or otherwise. But I saw him saying (doing) this way, and he would point with his forefinger making a circle by joining the middle finger with his thumb.

مَا رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم شَاهِرًا يَدَيْهِ قَطُّ يَدْعُو عَلَى مِنْبَرِهِ وَلاَ عَلَى غَيْرِهِ وَلَكِنْ رَأَيْتُهُ يَقُولُ هَكَذَا وَأَشَارَ بِالسَّبَّابَةِ وَعَقَدَ الْوُسْطَى بِالإِبْهَامِ ‏.‏
