The above tradition has been transmitted by "Asim b. Kulaib through a different chain of narrators and to the same effect. This version has:
"He then placed his right hand on the back of his left palm and his wrist and forearm." This also adds: "I then came back afterwards in a season when it was severe cold. I saw the people putting on heavy clothes moving their hands under the clothes (i.e. raised their hands before and after bowing)."
