Hands or Knees First When Going to Sujud?
Malik, Al-Awza`i and the scholars of Hadith thought that one should go to Sujud hands first, based on the Hadith of Abu Hurayrah who said: The Messenger of Allah said: “When any one of you prostrates, let him not go down as the camel does; let him put his hands down before his knees.”
