Hadith 34133
Yahya related to me from Malik from Nafi that Abdullah ibn Umar
used to say, "When one of you puts his forehead on the ground he
should put his palms on the place where he puts his forehead. Then,
when he rises, he should raise them, for the hands prostrate just as
the face prostrates."
Muwatta Malik Book 9, Hadith 68

Yahya related to me from Malik from Abu Hazim Salama ibn Dinar
from Sahl ibn Said as-Saidi that the Messenger of Allah, may Allah
bless him and grant him peace, went to the tribe of Bani Amr ibn Awf
to settle their disputes .The time for the prayer came and the
muadhdhin came to Abu Bakr as-Siddiq and said, "Could you lead the
people in prayer and I will say the iqama?" He said, "Yes," and Abu
Bakr prayed. The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him
peace, came back while the people were praying, and approached and
joined the row. People clapped, but Abu Bakr did not turn round. The
people increased their clapping, and Abu Bakr turned round and saw the
Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, and the
Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, indicated
to him to stay in his place. Abu Bakr raised his hands and praised
Allah that the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him
peace, had told him to do that. Then he drew back until he was in the
row, and the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him
peace, stepped forward and led the prayer. When he had finished he
said, "Abu Bakr, what stopped you from staying put like I told you?"
Abu Bakr said, "It is not for Ibn Abi Quhafa to pray in front of the
Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace."
The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said,
"Why did I see you all clapping so much? If something happens to you
in the prayer you should say 'Subhana-llah' (Glory be to Allah), and
when you say 'Subhana-llah' you will be heard. Clapping is only for
women." Muwatta Malik Book 9, Hadith 69
