Sunan an-Nasa'i 1088
أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عُبَيْدٍ الْكُوفِيُّ الْمُحَارِبِيُّ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ الْمُبَارَكِ، عَنْ مَعْمَرٍ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، عَنْ سَالِمٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ، قَالَ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم يَرْفَعُ يَدَيْهِ إِذَا افْتَتَحَ الصَّلاَةَ وَإِذَا رَكَعَ وَإِذَا رَفَعَ وَكَانَ لاَ يَفْعَلُ ذَلِكَ فِي السُّجُودِ .
Muhammad ibn ‘Ubayd al-Kufi al-Muharibi reported to us; he said: Ibn al-Mubarak narrated to us, from Ma‘mar, from al-Zuhri, from Salim, from Ibn ‘Umar, who said: The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) used to raise his hands when beginning the prayer, when bowing, and when rising; and he did not do that in prostration.
Translation notes
The Arabic says وَإِذَا رَفَعَ (when he rose/raised) without an explicit object. The English witness specifies standing up; the translation preserves the more general wording.
قَالَ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم يَرْفَعُ يَدَيْهِ إِذَا افْتَتَحَ الصَّلاَةَ وَإِذَا رَكَعَ وَإِذَا رَفَعَ وَكَانَ لاَ يَفْعَلُ ذَلِكَ فِي السُّجُودِ .
The verb وَإِذَا رَفَعَ has no expressed object or complement in this clause.
Does the omitted complement refer specifically to raising his head from bowing, or is the source intentionally elliptical?
