Al-Bari' b. 'Azib reported that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ observed Qunut in the morning and evening (prayers). (Using translation from Muslim 678a)  

«أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ كَانَ يَقْنُتُ فِي الصُّبْحِ وَالْمَغْرِبِ»  

"The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said the Qunut for a month."- (One of the narrators) Shu'bah said: "He cursed some men." Hisham said: "He supplicated against some of the tribes of Arabs."-"Then he stopped doing that after bowing." This is what Hisham said. Shu'bah said, narrating from Qatadah, from Anas that the Prophet ﷺ said the Qunut for a month, cursing Ri'l, Dhawkan and Lihyan. (Using translation from Nasāʾī 1077)  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَنَتَ شَهْرًا قَالَ شُعْبَةُ لَعَنَ وَقَالَ هِشَامٌ يَدْعُو عَلَى أَحْيَاءَ مِنْ أَحْيَاءِ الْعَرَبِ ثُمَّ تَرَكَهُ بَعْدَ الرُّكُوعِ هَذَا قَوْلُ هِشَامٍ وَقَالَ شُعْبَةُ عَنْ قَتَادَةَ عَنْ أَنَسٍ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ قَنَتَ شَهْرًا يَلْعَنُ رَعْلًا وَذَكْوَانَ وَلَحْيَانَ  

He heard the Prophet ﷺ, when he raised his head in the last rak'ah of the subh prayer, say: "O Allah, curse so-and-so and so-and-so," supplicating against some of the hypocrites. Then Allah revealed the words: "Not for you is the decision; whether He turns in mercy to (pardon) them or punishes them; verily, they are the wrongdoers." (Using translation from Nasāʾī 1078)   

أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ حِينَ رَفَعَ رَأْسَهُ فِي صَلَاةِ الصُّبْحِ مِنَ الرَّكْعَةِ الْآخِرَةِ قَالَ اللهُمَّ الْعَنْ فُلَانًا وَفُلَانًا دَعَا عَلَى نَاسٍ مِنَ الْمُنَافِقِينَ فَأَنْزَلَ اللهُ {لَيْسَ لَكَ مِنَ الْأَمْرِ شَيْءٌ أَوْ يَتُوبَ عَلَيْهِمْ أَوْ يُعَذِّبَهُمْ فَإِنَّهُمْ ظَالِمُونَ} [آل عمران 128] قَالَ لنا أَبُو عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ لَمْ يَرْوِ هَذَا الْحَدِيثَ أَحَدٌ مِنَ الثِّقَاتِ إِلَّا مَعْمَرٌ  

Anas reported that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ observed Qunut for one month invoking curse upon some tribes of Arabia (those who were responsible for the murders in Bi'r Ma'una and Raji'), but then abandoned it. (Using translation from Muslim 677j)  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَنَتَ شَهْرًا يَدْعُو عَلَى حَيٍّ مِنْ أَحْيَاءِ الْعَرَبِ ثُمَّ تَرَكَهُ  

"I prayed behind the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and he did not say the Qunut, and I prayed behind Abu Bakr and he did not say the Qunut, and I prayed behind Umar and he did not say the Qunut, and I prayed behind Uthman and he did not say the Qunut, and I prayed behind Ali and he did not say the Qunut." Then he said: "O my son, this is an innovation." (Using translation from Nasāʾī 1080)  

صَلَّيْتُ خَلْفَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَلَمْ يَقْنُتْ وَصَلَّيْتُ خَلْفَ أَبِي بَكْرٍ فَلَمْ يَقْنُتْ وَصَلَّيْتُ خَلْفَ عُمَرَ فَلَمْ يَقْنُتْ وَصَلَّيْتُ خَلْفَ عُثْمَانَ فَلَمْ يَقْنُتْ وَصَلَّيْتُ خَلْفَ عَلِيٍّ فَلَمْ يَقْنُتْ ثُمَّ قَالَ يَا بُنَيَّ إِنَّهَا بِدْعَةٌ  

"We used to pray Zuhr with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and I would take a handful of pebbles in my hand to cool them down, then I would pass them from one hand to the other, and when I prostrated I would put them down to lay my forehead on them." (Using translation from Nasāʾī 1081)  

«كُنَّا نُصَلِّي مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ الظُّهْرَ فَآخُذُ قَبْضَةً مِنْ حَصًى فِي كَفِّي أُبَرِّدُهُ ثُمَّ أُحَوِّلُهُ فِي كَفِّي الْآخَرَ فَإِذَا سَجَدْتُ وَضَعْتُهُ لِجَبْهَتِي»  

"Imran bin Husain and I prayed behind Ali bin Abi Talib. When he prostrated he said the Takbir, and when he raised his head from prostration he said the takbir, and when he stood up following two rak'ahs he said the takbir, and when he had finished praying, 'Imran took my hand and said: 'This reminded me of- he said a word meaning- the prayer of Muhammad ﷺ.'" (Using translation from Nasāʾī 1082)  

كَلِمَةً يَعْنِي صَلَاةَ مُحَمَّدٍ ﷺ»  

"The Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to say the takbir every time he went down and came up, and he would say the Salam to his right and his left. And Abu Bakr and 'Umar used to do likewise." (Using translation from Nasāʾī 1083)  

«كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يُكَبِّرُ فِي كُلِّ خَفْضٍ وَرَفْعٍ وَيُسَلِّمُ عَنْ يَمِينِهِ وَعَنْ يَسَارِهِ» وَكَانَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ وَعُمَرَ يَفْعَلَانِهِ  

"I heard Yusuf-meaning Ibn Mahak- narrating that Hakim said: 'I gave my pledge of allegiance to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, pledging that I would go down (in prostration) only after standing up from bowing.'" (Using translation from Nasāʾī 1084)  

«بَايَعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ أَنْ لَا أَخِّرَ إِلَّا قَائِمًا»  

[Machine] He saw the Prophet ﷺ raising his hands in his prayer when he bowed, when he raised his head from bowing, when he prostrated, and when he raised his head from prostration until his hands reached the level of his shoulders.

677 Narrated by Muhammad bin Al-Muthanna, he said: narrated to us Abdul-A'la, he said: narrated to us Sa'id, from Qatadah, from Nasr bin Asim, from Malik bin Al-Huwayrith, that he saw the Prophet ﷺ raising his hands. He mentioned something similar to that.

678 Narrated by Muhammad bin Al-Muthanna, he said: narrated to us Mu'adh bin Hisham, he said: my father narrated to me, from Qatadah, from Nasr bin Asim, from Malik bin Al-Huwayrith, that the Prophet ﷺ, when he entered into prayer, mentioned something similar to that and added to it. And when he bowed, he did the same, and when he raised his head from bowing, he did the same, and when he raised his head from prostration, he did the same.  

أنه رَأَى نَبِيَّ اللهِ ﷺ رَفَعَ يَدَيْهِ فِي صَلَاتِهِ إِذَا رَكَعَ وَإِذَا رَفَعَ رَأْسَهُ مِنْ رُكُوعِهِ وَإِذَا سَجَدَ وَإِذَا رَفَعَ رَأْسَهُ مِنْ سُجُودِهِ حَتَّى يُحَاذِي بِهِمَا فُرُوعَ أُذُنَيْهِ 677 أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّى قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْأَعْلَى قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدٌ عَنْ قَتَادَةَ عَنْ نَصْرِ بْنِ عَاصِمٍ عَنْ مَالِكِ بْنِ الْحُوَيْرِثِ أَنَّهُ رَأَى نَبِيَّ اللهِ ﷺ رَفَعَ يَدَيْهِ فَذَكَرَ مِثْلَهُ 678 أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّى قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مُعَاذُ بْنُ هِشَامٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي عَنْ قَتَادَةَ عَنْ نَصْرِ بْنِ عَاصِمٍ عَنْ مَالِكِ بْنِ الْحُوَيْرِثِ أَنَّ نَبِيَّ اللهِ ﷺ كَانَ إِذَا دَخَلَ فِي الصَّلَاةِ فَذَكَرَ نَحْوَهُ وَزَادَ فِيهِ وَإِذَا رَكَعَ فَعَلَ مِثْلَ ذَلِكَ وَإِذَا رَفَعَ رَأْسَهُ مِنَ الرُّكُوعِ فَعَلَ مِثْلَ ذَلِكَ وَإِذَا رَفَعَ رَأْسَهُ مِنَ السُّجُودِ فَعَلَ مِثْلَ ذَلِكَ  

"The Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to raise his hands when he started to pray, and when he bowed, and when he stood up, but he did not do that when he prostrated." (Using translation from Nasāʾī 1088)  

«كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَرْفَعُ يَدَيْهِ إِذَا افْتَتَحَ الصَّلَاةَ وَإِذَا رَكَعَ وَإِذَا رَفَعَ وَكَانَ لَا يَفْعَلُ ذَلِكَ فِي السُّجُودِ»  

I saw that the Prophet ﷺ placed his knees (on the ground) before placing his hands when he prostrated himself. And when he stood up, he raised his hands before his knees. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 838)  

«رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ إِذَا سَجَدَ وَضْعَ رُكْبَتَيْهِ قَبْلَ يَدَيْهِ وَإِذَا نَهَضَ رَفَعَ يَدَيْهِ قَبْلَ رُكْبَتَيْهِ»  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , said, "One of you may unintentionally break his prayer and bless as a camel does." And he said another time, "One of you may unintentionally break his prayer and bless as a camel does."  

قال رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «يَعْمِدُ أَحَدُكُمْ فِي صَلَاتِهِ فَيَبْرُكُ كَمَا يَبْرُكُ الْجَمَلُ» وَقَالَ مَرَّةً أُخْرَى يَعْمِدُ أَحَدُكُمْ فَيَبْرِكُ فِي صَلَاتِهِ بَرْكَ الْجَمَلِ  

"The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: 'When one of you prostrates, let him put his hands down before his knees, and not kneel like a camel.'" (Using translation from Nasāʾī 1091)  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «إِذَا سَجَدَ أَحَدُكُمْ فَلْيَضَعْ يَدَيْهِ قَبْلَ رُكْبَتَيْهِ وَلَا يَبْرُكُ بُرُوكَ الْبَعِيرِ»  

The Prophet ﷺ said: Both hands prostrate as the face prostrates. When one of you puts his face (on the ground) he should put his hands too (on the ground). And when he raises it, he should raise them too. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 892)  

«إِنَّ الْيَدَيْنِ تَسْجُدَانِ كَمَا يَسْجُدُ الْوَجْهُ فَإِذَا وَضَعَ أَحَدُكُمْ وَجْهَهُ فَلْيَضَعْ يَدَيْهِ وَإِذَا رَفَعَهُ فَلْيَرْفَعْهُمَا»  

The Prophet ﷺ was ordered to prostrate on seven bony parts and not to tuck up his clothes or hair. (Using translation from Bukhārī 815)  

«أُمِرَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ أَنْ يَسْجُدَ عَلَى سَبْعَةِ أَعْظُمٍ وَلَا يَكُفَّ شَعَرَهُ وَلَا ثِيَابَهُ»  

when a servant (of Allah) prostrates himself, the seven limbs, i.e, his face, his palms, his knees and his feet prostrate along with him. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 891)  

أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ «إِذَا سَجَدَ الْعَبْدُ سَجَدَ مَعَهُ سَبْعَةُ آرَابٍ وَجْهُهُ وَكَفَّاهُ وَرُكْبَتَاهُ وَقَدَمَاهُ»  

"My two eyes saw the traces of water and mud on the forehead and nose of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, from his praying Qiyam on the night of the twenty-first." (Using translation from Nasāʾī 1095)   

«بَصُرَتْ عَيْنَايَ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ عَلَى جَبِينِهِ وَأَنْفِهِ أَثَرُ الْمَاءِ وَالطِّينِ مَعَ صُبْحِ لَيْلَةِ إِحْدَى وَعِشْرِينَ»  

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: I was commanded to prostrate myself on the seven (bones) and forbidden to fold back hair and clothing. (The seven bones are): forehead, nose, hands, knees and feet. (Using translation from Muslim 490e)  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ «أُمِرْتُ أَنْ أَسْجُدَ عَلَى سَبْعٍ لَا أَكْفِتَ الشَّعْرَ وَلَا الثِّيَابَ الْجَبْهَةِ وَالْأَنْفِ وَالْيَدَيْنِ وَالرُّكْبَتَيْنِ وَالْقَدَمَيْنِ»  

The Prophet ﷺ said: "I have been commanded to prostrate on seven bones: on the forehead"- and he pointed with his hand- "on the nose, the hands, the knees and the ends of the feet." (Using translation from Nasāʾī 1097)

"The Prophet ﷺ was commanded to prostrate on seven-and he was forbidden to tuck up his hair and garment-on his hands, his knees, the edges of his feet." Sufyan said: "Ibn Tawus said to us: 'He put his hand on his forehead and moved it down to his nose and said: This one thing.'" (Using translation from Nasāʾī 1098)  

عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ أُمِرَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ أَنْ يَسْجُدَ عَلَى سَبْعٍ وَنُهِيَ أَنْ يَكْفِتَ الشَّعْرَ وَالثِّيَابَ عَلَى يَدَيْهِ وَرُكْبَتَيْهِ وَأَطْرَافِ أَصَابِعِهِ قَالَ سُفْيَانُ قَالَ لَنَا ابْنُ طَاوُسٍ وَوَضَعَ يَدَهُ عَلَى جَبْهَتِهِ وَأَمَرَّهَا عَلَى أَنْفِهِ قَالَ هَذَا وَاحِدٌ وَاللَّفْظُ لِمُحَمَّدٍ  

when a servant (of Allah) prostrates himself, the seven limbs, i.e, his face, his palms, his knees and his feet prostrate along with him. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 891)

"I noticed the Messenger of Allah ﷺ was missing one night, and I found him when he was prostrating with his feet held upright, and he was saying: 'Allahumma, inni a'udhu biridaka min sakhatik, wa bimu'afatika min 'uqubatik, wa bika minka la uhsi thana'an 'alaika anta kama athnaita 'ala nafsik (O Allah, I seek refuge with Your pleasure from Your wrath, in Your forgiveness from Your punishment and in You from You. I cannot praise You enough, You are as You have praised Yourself.)" (Using translation from Nasāʾī 1100)  

فَقَدْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ ذَاتَ لَيْلَةٍ فَانْتَهَيْتُ إِلَيْهِ وَهُوَ سَاجِدٌ وَقَدَمَاهُ مَنْصُوبَتَانِ وَهُوَ يَقُولُ «اللهُمَّ إِنِّي أَعُوذُ بِرِضَاكَ مِنْ سَخَطِكَ وَبِمُعَافَاتِكَ مِنْ عُقُوبَتِكَ لَا أُحْصِي ثَنَاءً عَلَيْكَ أَنْتَ كَمَا أَثْنَيْتَ عَلَى نَفْسِكَ»  

"When the Prophet ﷺ fell to the ground during prostration, he held his arms away from his sides and bent his toes." (Using translation from Nasāʾī 1101)  

«كَانَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ إِذَا أَهَوَى إِلَى الْأَرْضِ سَاجِدًا جَافَى عَضُدَيْهِ عَنْ إِبِطَيْهِ وَفَتِخَ أَصَابِعَ رِجْلَيْهِ»  

"I came to Al-Madinah and said: 'I am going to watch the Messenger of Allah ﷺ pray. He said the takbir and raised his hands until I saw his thumbs near his ears. When he wanted to bow, he said the takbir and raised his hands. Then he raised his head and said: 'Sami Allahu liman hamidah (Allah hears the one who praises Him).' Then he said the takbir and prostrated, and his hands were in the same position in relation to his ears as when he started the prayer." (Using translation from Nasāʾī 1102)  

قَدِمَتُ الْمَدِينَةَ فَقُلْتُ لَأَنْظُرَنَّ إِلَى صَلَاةِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَكَبَّرَ وَرَفَعَ يَدَيْهِ حَتَّى رَأَيْتُ إِبْهَامَيْهِ قَرِيبًا مِنْ أُذُنَيْهِ فَلَمَّا أَرَادَ أَنْ يَرْكَعَ كَبَّرَ وَرَفَعَ يَدَيْهِ ثُمَّ رَفَعَ رَأْسَهُ فَقَالَ «سَمِعَ اللهُ لِمَنْ حَمِدَهُ» ثُمَّ كَبَّرَ وَسَجَدَ فَكَانَتْ يَدَاهُ مِنْ أُذُنَيْهِ عَلَى الْمَوْضِعِ الَّذِي اسْتَقْبَلَ بِهِمَا الصَّلَاةَ

"Al-Bara' described the prostration to us. He places his hands on the ground and raised his posterior and said: 'This is what I saw the Messenger of Allah ﷺ doing." (Using translation from Nasāʾī 1104)  

وَصَفَ لَنَا الْبَرَاءُ السُّجُودَ فَوَضَعَ يَدَيْهِ بِالْأَرْضِ وَرَفَعَ عَجِيزَتَهُ وَقَالَ «هَكَذَا رَأَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ يَفْعَلُ»

"If I were in front of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ I would be able to see the whiteness of his armpits." (One of the narrators) Abu Mijlaz said: "It is as if he said that because he was praying." (Using translation from Nasāʾī 1107)  

«لَوْ كُنْتَ بَيْنَ يَدَيْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ لَأَبْصَرْتَ إِبِطَهُ» قَالَ أَبُو مِجْلَزٍ «كَأَنَّهُ قَالَ ذَلِكَ لِأَنَّهُ فِي صَلَاةٍ»

أَخْبَرَهُ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ «نَهَى عَنْ ثَلَاثٍ عَنْ نَقْرَةِ الْغُرَابِ وَافْتِرَاشِ السَّبُعِ وَأَنْ يُوَطِّنَ الرَّجُلُ الْمَقَامَ لِلصَّلَاةِ كَمَا يُوَطِّنُ الْبَعِيرُ»

Kurayb the freed slave of Ibn Abbas reported: Abdullah ibn Abbas saw Abdullah ibn al-Harith praying having the back knot of the hair. He stood behind him and began to untie it. He remained standing unmoved (stationary). When he finished his prayer he came to Ibn Abbas and said to him: What were you doing with my head? He said: I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say: A man who prays with the black knot of hair tied is the one praying pinioned. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 647)  

سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ «إِنَّمَا مَثَلُ هَذَا مَثَلُ الَّذِي يُصَلِّي وَهُوَ مَكْتُوفٌ»

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ forbade me to recite (the Qur'an) in a state of bowing and prostration. (Using translation from Muslim 480a)  

«نَهَانِي رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ أَنْ أَقْرَأَ رَاكِعًا أَوْ سَاجِدًا»  

"The Messenger of Allah ﷺ drew aside the curtain when he had a cloth wrapped around his head during his final illness, and said: 'O Allah, I have conveyed (the Message)' three times. 'There is nothing left of the features of Prophethood except a good dream that a person sees or is seen by others for him. But I have been forbidden to recite the Qur'an when bowing and prostrating, so when you bow, then glorify your Lord and when you prostrate, then strive hard in supplication, for it is more deserving of a response.'" (Using translation from Nasāʾī 1120)  

كَشَفَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ السَّتْرَ وَرَأْسُهُ مَعْصُوبٌ فِي مَرَضِهِ الَّذِي مَاتَ فِيهِ فَقَالَ «اللهُمَّ هَلْ بَلَّغْتُ ثَلَاثَ مَرَّاتً إِنَّهُ لَمْ يَبْقَ مِنْ مُبَشِّرَاتِ النُّبُوَّةِ إِلَّا الرُّؤْيَا الصَّالِحَةُ يَرَاهَا الْعَبْدُ أَوْ تُرَى لَهُ أَلَا وَإِنِّي قَدْ نُهِيتُ عَنِ الْقِرَاءَةِ فِي الرُّكُوعِ وَالسُّجُودِ فَإِذَا رَكَعْتُمْ فَعَظِّمُوا الرَّبَّ وَإِذَا سَجَدْتُمْ فَاجْتَهِدُوا فِي الدُّعَاءِ فَإِنَّهُ قَمِنٌ أَنْ يُسْتَجَابَ لَكُمْ»  

"I stayed overnight with my maternal aunt Maimunah bin Al-Harith, and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ stayed overnight with her. I saw him get up to relieve himself and he went to the waterskin and undid its string, then he performed wudu and that was moderate (in the amount of water used). Then he went to his bed and slept. Then he got up again and went to the waterskin and undid its string, and performed wudu again, like the first time. Then he stood and prayed, and when he prostrated he said: 'Allahummaj'al fi qalbi nuran waj'al fi sami' nuran waj'al fi basri nuran, waj'al min tahti nuran waj'al min fawqi nuran, wa 'an yamii nuran wa 'an yasari nuran waj'al amami nuran, waj'al khalfi nuran wa a'zimli nura (O Allah, place light in my heart, and place light in my hearing, and place light in my seeing, and place light beneath me, and place light above me, and light on my right, and light on my left, and place light behind me, and make the light greater for me.') Then he slept until he started to snore, then Bilal came and woke him up for the prayer." (Using translation from Nasāʾī 1121)  

بِتُّ عِنْدَ خَالَتِي مَيْمُونَةَ بِنْتِ الْحَارِثِ وَبَاتَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ عِنْدَهَا فَرَأَيْتُهُ قَامَ لِحَاجَتِهِ فَأَتَى الْقِرْبَةَ فَحَلَّ شِنَاقَهَا فَتَوَضَّأَ وُضُوءًا بَيْنَ الْوُضُوءَيْنِ ثُمَّ أَتَى فِرَاشَهُ فَنَامَ ثُمَّ قَامَ قَوْمَةً أُخْرَى فَأَتَى الْقِرْبَةَ فَحَلَّ شِنَاقَهَا ثُمَّ تَوَضَّأَ وُضُوءًا هُوَ الْوُضُوءُ ثُمَّ قَامَ يُصَلِّي وَكَانَ يَقُولُ فِي سُجُودِهِ «اللهُمَّ اجْعَلْ فِي قَلْبِي نُورًا وَاجْعَلْ فِي سَمْعِي نُورًا وَاجْعَلْ فِي بَصَرِي نُورًا وَاجْعَلْ مِنْ تَحْتِي نُورًا وَمِنْ فَوْقِي نُورًا وَعَنْ يَمِينِي نُورًا وَعَنْ يَسَارِي نُورًا وَاجْعَلْ أَمَامِي نُورًا وَاجْعَلْ خَلْفِي نُورًا وَأَعْظِمْ لِي نُورًا» ثُمَّ نَامَ حَتَّى نَفَخَ فَأَتَاهُ بِلَالٌ فَأَيْقَظَهُ لِلصَّلَاةِ  

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ 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 Qur’an). (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 877)  

كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ فِي رُكُوعِهِ وَسُجُودِهِ «سُبْحَانَكَ اللهُمَّ رَبَّنَا وَبِحَمْدِكَ اللهُمَّ اغْفِرْ لِي يَتَأَوَّلُ الْقُرْآنَ»  

"I noticed that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ was missing from bed, so I started to look for him, and I thought that he had gone to one of his concubines. Then my hand fell on him when he was prostrating and saying: "Allahummaghfirli ma asrartu wa ma a'lant (O Allah, forgive me for what (sin) I have concealed and what I have done openly).'" (Using translation from Nasāʾī 1124)  

عَائِشَةُ فَقَدْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ مِنْ مَضْجَعِهِ فَجَعَلْتُ أَلْتَمِسُهُ وَظَنَنْتُ أَنَّهُ أَتَى بَعْضَ جَوَارِيهِ فَوَقَعَتْ يَدِي عَلَيْهِ وَهُوَ سَاجِدٌ يَقُولُ «اللهُمَّ اغْفِرْ لِي مَا أَسْرَرْتُ وَمَا أَعْلَنْتُ»  

When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ prostrated he would say: "Allahumma laka sajadtu wa laka aslamtu wa bika amantu sajada wajhi lilladhi khalaqahu wa sawwarahu fa ahsana suratahu wa shaqqa sam'ahu wa basarahu, tabarak Allahu ahsanul-khaliqin ( O Allah, to You I have prostrated and to You I have submitted, and in You I have believed. My face has prostrated to the One Who created it and shaped it and shaped it well, and brought forth its hearing and sight. Blessed be Allah the best of Creators.)" (Using translation from Nasāʾī 1126)  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ كَانَ إِذَا سَجَدَ قَالَ «اللهُمَّ لَكَ سَجَدْتُ وَلَكَ أَسْلَمْتُ وَبِكَ آمَنْتُ سَجَدَ وَجْهِي لِلَّذِي خَلْقَهُ فَصَوَّرَهُ فَأَحْسَنَ صُوَرَهُ وَشَقَّ سَمْعَهُ وَبَصَرَهُ تَبَارَكَ اللهُ أَحْسَنَ الْخَالِقِينَ»  

The Prophet ﷺ used to say when prostrating: "Allahumma laka sajadtu wa laka aslamtu wa anta Rabbi, sajada wajhi lilladhi khalaqahu wa sawwarahu wa shaqqa sam'ahu wa basarahu, tabarak Allahu ahsanul-khaliqin ( O Allah, to You I have prostrated and in You I have believed and to You I have submitted, and You are my Lord. My face has prostrated to the One Who created it and formed it, and brought forth its hearing and sight. Blessed be Allah the best of Creators.)" (Using translation from Nasāʾī 1127)  

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ بِنَحْوٍ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ كَانَ يَقُولُ فِي سُجُودِهِ «اللهُمَّ لَكَ سَجَدْتُ وَبِكَ آمَنْتُ وَلَكَ أَسْلَمْتُ وَأَنْتَ رَبِّي سَجَدَ وَجْهِي لِلَّذِي خَلْقَهُ وَصَوَّرَهُ وَشَقَّ سَمْعَهُ وَبَصَرَهُ تَبَارَكَ اللهُ أَحْسَنَ الْخَالِقِينَ»  

When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ got up to offer voluntary prayers at night, he would say when he prostrated: "Allahumma laka sajadtu wa bika amantu wa laka aslamtu, Allahumma anta Rabbi, sajada wajhi lilladhi khalaqahu wa sawwarahu wa shaqqa sam'ahu wa basarahu, tabarak Allahu ahsanul-khaliqin ( O Allah, to You I have prostrated and in You I have believed and to You I have submitted. O Allah, You are my Lord. My face has prostrated to the One Who created it and formed it, and brought forth its hearing and sight. Blessed be Allah the best of Creators.)" (Using translation from Nasāʾī 1128)  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ كَانَ إِذَا قَامَ يُصَلِّي تَطَوُّعًا قَالَ إِذَا سَجَدَ «اللهُمَّ لَكَ سَجَدْتُ وَبِكَ آمَنْتُ وَلَكَ أَسْلَمْتُ اللهُمَّ أَنْتَ رَبِّي سَجَدَ وَجْهِي لِلَّذِي خَلْقَهُ وَصَوَّرَهُ وَشَقَّ سَمْعَهُ وَبَصَرَهُ تَبَارَكَ اللهُ أَحْسَنُ الْخَالِقِينَ»  

The Prophet ﷺ used to say, when he did a prostration that was required when reciting Quran at night: "Sajada wajhi lilladhi khalaqahu wa sawwarahu wa shaqqa sam'ahu wa basarahu bihawlihi wa quwwatih (My face has prostrated to the One Who created it and formed it, and brought forth its hearing and sight by His power and strength.)" (Using translation from Nasāʾī 1129)  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ كَانَ يَقُولُ فِي سُجُودِ الْقُرْآنِ بِاللَّيْلِ «سَجَدَ وَجْهِي لِلَّذِي خَلْقَهُ وَشَقَّ سَمْعَهُ وَبَصَرَهُ بِحَوْلِهِ وَقُوَّتِهِ»
