Chapter on the Manner of Prayer, Its Description and What is Obligatory and Recommended

عَنْهُ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اَلْحَمِيدِ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عُمَرَ بْنِ يَزِيدَ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عُذَافِرٍ عَنْ عُمَرَ بْنِ يَزِيدَ قَالَ قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ:« إِنْ خِفْتَ اَلشُّهْرَةَ فِي اَلتُّكَأَةِ فَقَدْ يُجْزِيكَ أَنْ تَضَعَ يَدَكَ عَلَى اَلْأَرْضِ وَ لاَ تَضْطَجِعَ وَ أَوْمَأَ بِأَطْرَافِ أَصَابِعِهِ مِنْ كَفِّهِ اَلْيُمْنَى فَوَضَعَهَا فِي اَلْأَرْضِ قَلِيلاً» وَ حَكَى أَبُو جَعْفَرٍ ذَلِكَ
From him from Muhammad ibn Abd Al-Hamid from Muhammad ibn Umar ibn Yazid from Muhammad ibn Udhafir from Umar ibn Yazid who said: Abu Abdillah عليه السلام, peace be upon him, said: "If you fear being noticed (public attention) when leaning (in prayer), it is sufficient for you to place your hand on the ground without lying down." Then He عليه السلام gestured with the tips of his fingers from his right hand and placed them lightly on the ground. And Abu Ja'far عليه السلام also narrated that.
