حَدَّثَنَا عُثْمَانُ بْنُ عُمَرَ ، أَنْبأَنَا دَاوُدُ بْنُ قَيْسٍ الْفَرَّاءُ ، عَنْ سَعْدِ بْنِ إِسْحَاق ، عَنْ أَبِي ثُمَامَةَ الْحَنَّاطِ ، قَالَ : أَدْرَكَنِي كَعْبُ بْنُ عُجْرَةَ بِالْبَلَاطِ، وَأَنَا مُشَبِّكٌ بَيْنَ أَصَابِعِي، فَقَالَ : إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ :" إِذَا تَوَضَّأَ أَحَدُكُمْ ثُمَّ خَرَجَ عَامِدًا إِلَى الصَّلَاةِ، فَلَا يُشَبِّكُ بَيْنَ أَصَابِعِهِ "

Othman bin Omar told us, Dawud bin Qais Al-Farra’ told us, on the authority of Saad bin Ishaq, on the authority of Abu Thumama the miller, he said: A heel overtook me. Ibn Ajrah was at the court, and I was clasping my fingers together. He said: The Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, said: “If one of you performs ablution and then goes out… He intends to pray, and does not interlock his fingers.”
