bayhaqi:2684 – Abū ʿAbdullāh al-Ḥāfiẓ > Abū Bakr b. Isḥāq al-Faqīh > Yūsuf b. Yaʿqūb al-Qāḍī > Muḥammad b. Abū Bakr al-Muqaddamī > Yūsuf b. al-Mājishūn from my father > ʿAbd al-Raḥman al-Aʿraj > ʿUbaydullāh b. Abū Rāfiʿ > ʿAlī b. Abū Ṭālib

[Machine] That the Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to, when he stood up for prayer, mention the praises of Allah and supplicate during it. And when he prostrated, he would say: "O Allah, to You I have prostrated, and in You I have believed, and to You I have submitted. My face has prostrated to the One who created it, and fashioned it, and opened its hearing and sight. Blessed is Allah, the Best of creators."
