حَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَكْرٍ، ح قَالَ وَحَدَّثَنَا حَسَنٌ الْحُلْوَانِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ، - وَتَقَارَبَا فِي اللَّفْظِ - قَالاَ جَمِيعًا أَخْبَرَنَا ابْنُ جُرَيْجٍ أَخْبَرَنِي أَبُو الزُّبَيْرِ أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ طَاوُسًا يَقُولُ قُلْنَا لاِبْنِ عَبَّاسٍ فِي الإِقْعَاءِ عَلَى الْقَدَمَيْنِ فَقَالَ هِيَ السُّنَّةُ . فَقُلْنَا لَهُ إِنَّا لَنَرَاهُ جَفَاءً بِالرَّجُلِ . فَقَالَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ بَلْ هِيَ سُنَّةُ نَبِيِّكَ صلى الله عليه وسلم .

বাংলা অনুবাদ
ইসহাক ইবনু ইবরাহীম (রহঃ), হাসান আল হুলওয়ানী (রহঃ) ..... তাউস (রহঃ) থেকে বর্ণিত। তিনি বলেন, আমি আবদুল্লাহ ইবনু আব্বাস (রাযিঃ) কে দু' পায়ের উপর নিতম্ব রেখে বসা (ইক'আ করা) সম্পর্কে জিজ্ঞেস করলে তিনি বললেন, এরূপ করা তো সুন্নাত। (এ কথা শুনে) আমি তাকে বললাম, এভাবে বসা তো মানুষের জন্য কষ্টকর। আবদুল্লাহ ইবনু আব্বাস বললেন, এটা তো বরং তোমাদের নবী সাল্লাল্লাহু আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম এর সুন্নাত। (ইসলামী ফাউন্ডেশন ১০৭৯, ইসলামীক সেন্টার)
