"I looked for the Messenger of Allah [SAW] one night in my bed, and I did not find him. I struck my hand on the head of the bed, and my hand fell on the soles of his feet. He was prostrating and saying: 'A'udhu bi 'afwika min 'iqabika, wa a'udhu bi ridaka min sakhatika, wa a'udhu bika minka (I seek refuge in Your forgiveness from Your punishment, and I seek refuge in Your pleasure from Your wrath, and I seek refuge in You from You.)'" (Using translation from Nasāʾī 5534)  

الكبرى للنسائي:٧٩٢٠أَخْبَرَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي الْعَلَاءُ بْنُ هِلَالٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللهِ عَنْ زَيْدٍ عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ مُرَّةَ عَنِ الْقَاسِمِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ وَهُوَ ابْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ عَنْ مَسْرُوقِ بْنِ الْأَجْدَعِ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ قَالَتْ

طَلَبْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ ذَاتَ لَيْلَةٍ فِي فِرَاشِي فَلَمْ أُصِبْهُ فَضَرَبْتُ بِيَدِي عَلَى رَأْسِ الْفِرَاشِ فَوَقَعَتْ يَدِي عَلَى أُخْمُصِ قَدَمَيْهِ فَإِذَا هُوَ سَاجِدٌ يَقُولُ «أَعُوذُ بِعَفْوِكَ مِنْ عِقَابِكَ وَأَعُوذُ بِرِضَاكَ مِنْ سَخَطِكَ وَأَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنْكَ»

"I noticed the Prophet ﷺ was not there one night, so I started looking for him with my hand. My hand touched his feet and they were held upright, and he was prostrating and saying: 'I seek refuge in Your pleasure from Your anger, in Your forgiveness from Your punishment, and I seek refuge in You from You. I cannot praise You enough, You are as You have praised yourself.'"
