وَ عَنْهُ عَنْ فَضَالَةَ عَنْ سَيْفٍ عَنْ أَبِي بَكْرٍ اَلْحَضْرَمِيِّ قَالَ قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ:« إِذَا قُمْتَ مِنَ اَلرَّكْعَتَيْنِ فَاعْتَمِدْ عَلَى كَفَّيْكَ وَ قُلْ بِحَوْلِ اَللَّهِ أَقُومُ وَ أَقْعُدُ فَإِنَّ عَلِيّاً عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ كَانَ يَفْعَلُ ذَلِكَ»
And from him, from Fadalah, from Sayf, from Abu Bakr al-Hadrami, who said:
Abu Abdillah عليه السلام said: “When you rise from the two rak‘ahs, lean on your palms and say: ‘Bi-hawli Allahi aqumu wa aq‘udu’ (By the power and strength of Allah سبحانه وتعالى I rise and I sit.) for indeed (Imam) Ali عليه السلام, peace be upon him, used to do that.”
