باب الاِعْتِدَالِ فِي السُّجُودِ وَوَضْعِ الْكَفَّيْنِ عَلَى الأَرْضِ وَرَفْعِ الْمِرْفَقَيْنِ عَنِ الْجَنْبَيْنِ وَرَفْعِ الْبَطْنِ عَنِ الْفَخِذَيْنِ فِي السُّجُودِ

Anas reported
The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: Observe moderation in prostration, and let none of you stretch out his forearms (on the ground) like a dog.حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ، عَنْ شُعْبَةَ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ، قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم " اعْتَدِلُوا فِي السُّجُودِ وَلاَ يَبْسُطْ أَحَدُكُمْ ذِرَاعَيْهِ انْبِسَاطَ الْكَلْبِ " .
