أَخْبَرَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ مَنْصُورٍ النَّسَائِيُّ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا الْمُعَلَّى بْنُ أَسَدٍ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا وُهَيْبٌ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ طَاوُسٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ " أُمِرْتُ أَنْ أَسْجُدَ عَلَى سَبْعَةِ أَعْظُمٍ عَلَى الْجَبْهَةِ وَأَشَارَ بِيَدِهِ عَلَى الأَنْفِ وَالْيَدَيْنِ وَالرُّكْبَتَيْنِ وَأَطْرَافِ الْقَدَمَيْنِ " .
‘Amr ibn Mansur al-Nasa’i reported to us; he said: al-Mu‘alla ibn Asad narrated to us; he said: Wuhaib narrated to us, from ‘Abdullah ibn Tawus, from his father, from Ibn ‘Abbas, from the Prophet (ﷺ), who said: ‘I have been commanded to prostrate on seven bones, without gathering up the hair or clothes: the forehead’—and he pointed with his hand to the nose—‘the hands, the knees, and the tips of the feet.’
Translation notes
The Prophet's gesture is described as pointing to the nose while naming the forehead. The phrase “seven bones” is followed by the listed prostration points, with the forehead and nose treated together.
