[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to prostrate, and even if she (referring to an animal) wanted, a beast could pass between his hands.  

البيهقي:٢٧٠٥ – أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ أَخْبَرَنِي أَبُو النَّضْرِ الْفَقِيهُ ثنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ نَصْرٍ الْإِمَامُ ثنا يَحْيَى بْنُ يَحْيَى أنبأ سُفْيَانُ بْنُ عُيَيْنَةَ عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ الْأَصَمِّ عَنْ عَمِّهِ يَزِيدَ بْنِ الْأَصَمِّ عَنْ مَيْمُونَةَ ؓ قَالَتْ

كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ إِذَا سَجَدَ لَوْ شَاءَتْ بَهِيمَةٌ أَنْ تَمُرَّ بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ مَرَّتْ
