Sunan an-Nasa'i 1161
أَخْبَرَنَا زَكَرِيَّا بْنُ يَحْيَى السِّجْزِيُّ، - يُعْرَفُ بِخَيَّاطِ السُّنَّةِ نَزَلَ بِدِمَشْقَ أَحَدُ الثِّقَاتِ - قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ عِيسَى قَالَ أَنْبَأَنَا ابْنُ الْمُبَارَكِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مَخْرَمَةُ بْنُ بُكَيْرٍ قَالَ أَنْبَأَنَا عَامِرُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ الزُّبَيْرِ عَنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم إِذَا جَلَسَ فِي الثِّنْتَيْنِ أَوْ فِي الأَرْبَعِ يَضَعُ يَدَيْهِ عَلَى رُكْبَتَيْهِ ثُمَّ أَشَارَ بِأُصْبُعِهِ .
Zakariyya ibn Yahya al-Sijzi—known as “the tailor of the Sunnah,” he settled in Damascus and was one of the reliable narrators—reported to us. He said: al-Hasan ibn ‘Isa reported to us; Ibn al-Mubarak informed us; Makhramah ibn Bukayr narrated to us; ‘Amir ibn ‘Abd Allah ibn al-Zubayr informed us, from his father, who said: “When the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) sat after two or four rak‘ahs, he placed his hands on his knees and then pointed with his finger.”
