حَدَّثَنَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْمَلِكِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَالْحَجَّاجُ بْنُ مِنْهَالٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَا:‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنَا هَمَّامٌ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏حَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أَبِي طَلْحَةَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ يَحْيَى بْنِ خَلَّادٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ أَبِيهِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ عَمِّهِ رِفَاعَةَ بْنِ رَافِعٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏بِمَعْنَاهُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ:‏‏‏‏ إِنَّهَا لَا تَتِمُّ صَلَاةُ أَحَدِكُمْ حَتَّى يُسْبِغَ الْوُضُوءَ كَمَا أَمَرَهُ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَيَغْسِلَ وَجْهَهُ وَيَدَيْهِ إِلَى الْمِرْفَقَيْنِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَيَمْسَحَ بِرَأْسِهِ وَرِجْلَيْهِ إِلَى الْكَعْبَيْنِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏ثُمَّ يُكَبِّرَ اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ وَيَحْمَدَهُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏ثُمَّ يَقْرَأَ مِنَ الْقُرْآنِ مَا أَذِنَ لَهُ فِيهِ وَتَيَسَّرَ. فَذَكَرَ نَحْوَ حَدِيثِ حَمَّادٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ ثُمَّ يُكَبِّرَ فَيَسْجُدَ فَيُمَكِّنَ وَجْهَهُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ هَمَّامٌ:‏‏‏‏ وَرُبَّمَا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ جَبْهَتَهُ مِنَ الْأَرْضِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏حَتَّى تَطْمَئِنَّ مَفَاصِلُهُ وَتَسْتَرْخِيَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏ثُمَّ يُكَبِّرَ فَيَسْتَوِيَ قَاعِدًا عَلَى مَقْعَدِهِ وَيُقِيمَ صُلْبَهُ . فَوَصَفَ الصَّلَاةَ هَكَذَا أَرْبَعَ رَكَعَاتٍ حَتَّى فَرَغَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏لَا تَتِمُّ صَلَاةُ أَحَدِكُمْ حَتَّى يَفْعَلَ ذَلِكَ.

The Messenger of Allah صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم said: The prayer of any of you is not complete until he performs ablution perfectly, as Allah, the Exalted, has ordered you. He should wash his face and hands up to the elbows, and wipe his head and (wash) his feet up to the ankles. Then he should exalt Allah and praise Him. Then he should recite the Quran as much as it is convenient for him. (Narrator then narrated the tradition like Hammad's, No. 856). He said: He then utter the takbir and prostration himself so that his face is at rest. Hammam (sub-narrator) said: Sometimes he reported: So that his forehead is at rest on the ground, and his joints return to their places and are loosened. Then he should say the takbir and then sit right on his hips and erect his back. He described the nature of prayer in this way by offering four rak'ahs until he finished it. The prayer of any of you is not complete unless he does so.
