This tradition has been reported by Hammad bin Salamah through the same chain of narrators and conveying a similar meaning. This version adds in the beginning: He uttered TAKBIR (Allahu akbar), and in the end: when he finished the prayer, he said: I am a human being; I was sexually defiled. Abu Dawud said: This tradition has been narrated al-Zuhri from Abu Salamah bin Abdur-Rahman on the authority of Abu Hurairah. It says: When he stood at the place of prayer, we waited for his utterance of takbir (Allah-u akbar). He went away and said: (remain) as you were. Another version on the authority of Muhammad reporting from the Prophet صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم says: He uttered takbir (Allah-u-Akbar) and then made a sign to the people, meaning sit down . He then went away and took a bath. This tradition has also been narrated through a different chain. It says: The Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم uttered takbir (Allah-u-akbar) in a prayer. Abu Dawud said: Another version through a different chain says; The Prophet صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم uttered takbir (Allah-u akbar).
