Arabic hadith text

أَخْبَرَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ عَلِيٍّ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي ذِئْبٍ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ سَمْعَانَ، قَالَ جَاءَ أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ إِلَى مَسْجِدِ بَنِي زُرَيْقٍ فَقَالَ ثَلاَثٌ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم يَعْمَلُ بِهِنَّ تَرَكَهُنَّ النَّاسُ كَانَ يَرْفَعُ يَدَيْهِ فِي الصَّلاَةِ مَدًّا وَيَسْكُتُ هُنَيْهَةً وَيُكَبِّرُ إِذَا سَجَدَ وَإِذَا رَفَعَ ‏.‏

Translation

Amr ibn Ali informed us: Yahya narrated to us: Ibn Abi Dhib narrated to us: Said ibn Saman said: Abu Hurairah came to the mosque of Banu Zuraiq and said, The Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to do three things that people have since abandoned: he would extend his hands when praying, pause briefly, and say the takbir when prostrating and when raising his head.
