Arabic hadith text

أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، دُحَيْمٌ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مَرْوَانُ بْنُ مُعَاوِيَةَ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ الأَصَمِّ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي يَزِيدُ بْنُ الأَصَمِّ، عَنْ مَيْمُونَةَ، قَالَتْ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم إِذَا سَجَدَ خَوَّى بِيَدَيْهِ حَتَّى يُرَى وَضَحُ إِبْطَيْهِ مِنْ وَرَائِهِ وَإِذَا قَعَدَ اطْمَأَنَّ عَلَى فَخِذِهِ الْيُسْرَى ‏.‏

‘Abd al-Rahman ibn Ibrahim—Duhaim—reported to us; he said: Marwan ibn Mu‘awiyah narrated to us; he said: ‘Ubayd Allah ibn ‘Abdullah ibn al-Asamm narrated to us; he said: Yazid ibn al-Asamm narrated to me, from Maymunah, who said: When the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) prostrated, he spread his arms away from his sides so that the whiteness of his armpits could be seen from behind. When he sat, he settled his weight on his left thigh.
