Sahih al-Bukhari 806 (Book 10, Hadith 218)
said, ‘I lead you in prayer but I do not want to offer the prayer but just to show you how Allah’s
Apostle performed his prayers.” I asked Abu Qilaba, “How was the prayer of Malik bin Huwairith?”
He replied, “Like the prayer of this Sheikh of ours– i.e. `Amr bin Salima.” That Sheikh used to
pronounce the Takbir perfectly and when he raised his head from the second prostration he would sit
for a while and then support himself on the ground and get up.
