Īt-Tabraani narrated in ‘Sagheer’ also from Anas with the wording:
Indeed I saw the Messenger of Allaah – sallAllaahu alayhi wa sallam – in the early morning prayer raising his hands and he supplicated against those who killed them.
‘Anas said: I never ever saw the Messenger of Allaah – sallAllaahu alayhi wa sallam-painfully agitated about anything as I saw him agitated over them. Shaykh al-Albaani mentions the Narration of Anas bin Malik when the Qur’aanic recitors were killed: Taken from the ‘Original Sifat as-Salah‘ By Shaykh Muhadith Muhammad Nasir- Deen Al-AlbaaniĪnd ‘the Messenger – sallAllaahu alayhi wa sallam – used to raise his hands.’
