Text and translation

English translation

1406. It was reported from Al-Aswad, from 'Abdullāh, that the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ once recited Sūrat An-Najm and prostrated in it. There was no one present except that they also prostrated with him. But one man among them took a handful of stones, or sand, and raised it to his face, and said: "This suffices me." And I saw him after that — he was killed as a disbeliever." (Sahih)

Arabic text

1406 - حَدَّثَنَا حَفْصُ بْنُ عُمَرَ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ، عَنِ الْأَسْوَدِ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، " أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَرَأَ سُورَةَ النَّجْمِ فَسَجَدَ فِيهَا، وَمَا بَقِيَ أَحَدٌ مِنَ الْقَوْمِ إِلَّا سَجَدَ، فَأَخَذَ رَجُلٌ مِنَ الْقَوْمِ كَفًّا مِنْ حَصًى - أَوْ تُرَابٍ -، فَرَفَعَهُ إِلَى وَجْهِهِ، وَقَالَ: يَكْفِينِي هَذَا "، قَالَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ: «فَلَقَدْ رَأَيْتُهُ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ قُتِلَ كَافِرًا»

1. There is a prostration of recitation in Sūrat An-Najm. 2. During the prayer, the followers prostrate if the Imām prostrates, if he does not, they do not.
