CHAPTER: The Supplication During The Ruku’ And Prostration.
Abu Hurairah reported the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم as saying: The nearest a servant come to his Lord is when he is prostrating himself, so make supplication often.
Ibn Abbas said: The Prophet صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم lifted the curtain (and saw that) the people were standing in rows (of prayers) behind Abu Bakr. He said: O people, there remained nothing that gives good tidings from prophethood except a true dream which a Muslim has himself or which another Muslim has for him. I have been prohibited to recite the Quran while bowing or prostration. As regards owing, exalt the Lord in it, and as to prostration, make supplication with exertion in it, that is worthy of being accepted.
Aishah said: The Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم often said while bowing and prostrating himself; “Glory be to Thee, O Allah, out Lord. ” And “Praise be to Thee, O Allah, forgive me, ” Thus interpreting the (command in the Quran).
Abu Hurairah said: The prophet صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم used to say when prostrating himself: “O Allah. Forgive me all my sins, small and great, first and last. “ the narrator Ibn al-sarh added: “open and secret. ”
Aishah said; one night I missed the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم and when I sought him on the spot of prayer I found him in prostration with his feet raised, and he was saying: ” (O Allah), I seek refuge in Your good pleasure from Your anger, and in Your Mercy from Your Punishment, and I seek refuge from You in You; I am not able to praise You (the way that You deserve to be praised), for You are as You have praised Yourself”.
