Arabic text

967 - أَخْبَرَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ قَالَ: أَنْبَأَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنْ أَيُّوبَ بْنُ مُوسَى، عَنْ عَطَاءِ بْنِ مِينَاءَ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، وَوَكِيعٌ، عَنْ سُفْيَانُ، عَنْ أَيُّوبَ بْنِ مُوسَى، عَنْ عَطَاءِ بْنِ مِينَاءَ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ: «سَجَدْتُ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي إِذَا السَّمَاءُ انْشَقَّتْ، وَاقْرَأْ بِاسْمِ رَبِّكَ»

Commentary

1. Imâm Mâlik does not acknowledge this prostration also. He considers it superseded. This claim, however, is not only without evidence, but is also contrary to the Prophet's ﷺ best practice (the Sunnah). 2. Imâm An-Nasâî has formed chapters merely of the Qur'ân recital prostrations in which there is difference of opinion (among scholars). He did not mention the strongly agreed-upon prostrations.
