Arabic hadith text

حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ مُوسَى، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا خَالِدُ بْنُ إِلْيَاسَ، عَنْ صَالِحٍ، مَوْلَى التَّوْأَمَةِ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، قَالَ كَانَ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم يَنْهَضُ فِي الصَّلاَةِ عَلَى صُدُورِ قَدَمَيْهِ ‏.‏ قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى حَدِيثُ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ عَلَيْهِ الْعَمَلُ عِنْدَ أَهْلِ الْعِلْمِ يَخْتَارُونَ أَنْ يَنْهَضَ الرَّجُلُ فِي الصَّلاَةِ عَلَى صُدُورِ قَدَمَيْهِ ‏.‏ وَخَالِدُ بْنُ إِلْيَاسَ هُوَ ضَعِيفٌ عِنْدَ أَهْلِ الْحَدِيثِ ‏.‏ قَالَ وَيُقَالُ خَالِدُ بْنُ إِيَاسٍ أَيْضًا ‏.‏ وَصَالِحٌ مَوْلَى التَّوْأَمَةِ هُوَ صَالِحُ بْنُ أَبِي صَالِحٍ ‏.‏ وَأَبُو صَالِحٍ اسْمُهُ نَبْهَانُ وَهُوَ مَدَنِيٌّ ‏.‏

Abu Hurayrah said: The Prophet would rise in prayer on the fronts of his feet. Abu Isa said: This hadith of Abu Hurayrah is acted upon according to the people of knowledge, who prefer that a man rise in prayer on the fronts of his feet. Khalid ibn Ilyas is weak according to the hadith scholars; he is also called Khalid ibn Iyas. Salih, the client of al-Tawama, is Salih ibn Abi Salih. Abu Salih was named Nabhan, and he was a Medinan.

Notes and open questions — unreviewed
  • The Arabic chest/fronts of the feet is translated as fronts of the feet.

  • ‏ وَخَالِدُ بْنُ إِلْيَاسَ هُوَ ضَعِيفٌ عِنْدَ أَهْلِ الْحَدِيثِ ‏.

    The compiler states the narrator is weak without further detail.

    Is additional context on the assessment of Khalid ibn Ilyas needed?
