حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يُوسُفَ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنِ الأَعْمَشِ، عَنْ أَبِي الضُّحَى، عَنْ مَسْرُوقٍ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ ـ رضى الله عنها كَانَتْ تَكْرَهُ أَنْ يَجْعَلَ ‏{‏الْمُصَلِّي‏}‏ يَدَهُ فِي خَاصِرَتِهِ وَتَقُولُ إِنَّ الْيَهُودَ تَفْعَلُهُ‏.‏ تَابَعَهُ شُعْبَةُ عَنِ الأَعْمَشِ‏.‏
Narrated `Aisha:
That she used to hate that one should keep his hands on his flanks while praying. She said that the Jew used to do so.
