Arabic hadith text

أَخْبَرَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، قَالَ أَنْبَأَنَا عَبْدَةُ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدٌ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ، ح وَأَخْبَرَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ مَسْعُودٍ، عَنْ خَالِدٍ، عَنْ شُعْبَةَ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ، قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أَنَسًا، عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ ‏ "‏ اعْتَدِلُوا فِي السُّجُودِ وَلاَ يَبْسُطْ أَحَدُكُمْ ذِرَاعَيْهِ انْبِسَاطَ الْكَلْبِ ‏" ‏ ‏.‏ اللَّفْظُ لإِسْحَاقَ ‏.‏

Translation

Ishaq ibn Ibrahim reported to us; he said: ‘Abdah informed us; he said: Sa‘id narrated to us, from Qatadah, from Anas. (A second chain:) Isma‘il ibn Mas‘ud reported to us, from Khalid, from Shu‘bah, from Qatadah, who said: I heard Anas, from the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ), say: ‘Keep a balanced posture in prostration, and do not spread your forearms on the ground as a dog spreads them.’ The wording is Ishaq’s.

Translation notes
  • The Arabic provides two transmission routes, joined by the hadith symbol ح; the second route explicitly continues through Qatadah, who heard Anas. اللَّفْظُ لإِسْحَاقَ assigns the wording to Ishaq.
