Whenever he raised his head after bowing; he stood up equal to the time that I can recite this supplication : O Allah! our Lord! unto Thee be the praise which would fill the heavens and the earth; and that which will please Thee besides them I Worthy art Thou of all praise and glory. None can prevent that which Thou bestowest; and none can bestow that whichthou preventest. And the greatness of the great will not avail him against Thee.

I made a mention of that to Ar Bin Murrah and he said: I saw Ibn Abi Laili saying the prayer ; but his prayer was not like this. | The Chapter on Prostration And Supplications in HodHood Indexing, Chapter on 38 in Sahih Muslim |

O Allah; Thou art the King; there is no god but Thee; Thou art my Lord; and I am Thy bondman. I wronged myself and make a confession of my Sin. Forgive all my sins; for no one forgives the sins but Thee; and guide me in the best of conduct for none but Thee guideth anyone in good conduct. Remove sins from me; for none else but Thou can remove sins from me. Here I am at Thy service; and Grace is to Thee and the whole of good is in Thine hand; and one cannot get nearneststo Thee through evil. My power as well as existence is due to Thee Thine grace and I turn to Thee for supplication. Thou art blessed and Thou art exalted. I seek forgiveness from Thee and turn to Thee in repentance: and when he would bow; he would say: O Allah; it is for Thee that I bowed. I affirm my faith in Thee and I submit to Thee; and submit humbly before Thee my hearing; my eyesight; my marrow; my bone; my sinew; and when he would raise his head; he would say: O Allah; our Lord; praise is due to Thee; the praise with which is filled the heavens and the earth; and with which is filled that space which exists between them; and filled with anything that Thou desireth afterward. And when he prostrated himself; he the Holy Prophet would say: O Allah; it is to Thee that I prostrate myself and it is in Thee that I affirm my faith; and I submit to Thee. My face is submitted before One Who created it; and shaped it; and opened his faculties of hearing and seeing. Blessed is Allah; the best of Creators; and he would then say between Tashahhud and the pronouncing of salutation: Forgive me of the earlier and later open and secret sins and that where I made transgression and that Thou knowest better than I.

So when the time of the Asr prayer came. we formed ourselves into two rows; while the polytheists were between us and the Qibla. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: Allah is Most Great; and we also said so. He bowed and we also bowed. He went down in prostration and the first row prostrated along with him. When they stood up; the second row went down in prostration. Then the first row went into the rear; and the second row came in the front and occupied the place of the first row. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ then said: Allah is Most Great; and we also said so. He then bowed; and we also bowed. He then went down in prostration and along with him the row also went down in prostration ; and the second row remained standing.

We said: No. He said: Then stand up and say prayer. He neither ordered us to say Adhan nor Iqama. We went to stand behind him. He caught hold of our hands and mode one of us stand on his right hand and the other on his left side. When we bowed; we placed our hands on our knees. He struck our hands and put his hands together; palm to palm; then put them between his thighs. When he completed the prayer he said. There would soon come your Amirs; who would defer prayers from their appointed time and would make such delay that a little time is left before sunset. So when you see them doing so; say prayer at its appointed time and then say prayer along with them as Nafl ; and when you are three; pray together standing in one row ; and when you are more than three; appoint one amongst you as your Imam. And when any one of you bows he must place his hands upon hie thighs and kneel down. and putting his palms together place them within his thighs. I perceive as if I am seeing the gap between the fingers of the Messenger of Allah may peace he upon him. | The Chapter on Hand Gestures And Bowing in HodHood Indexing, Chapter on 5 in Sahih Muslim |
