579. Al-Ḥasan bin Muḥammad bin 'Ubaidullāh bin Abī Yazīd said: Ibn Juraij said to me: O Ḥasan! 'Ubaidullāh bin Abī Yazīd informed me that Ibn 'Abbās said: "A man came to the Prophet ﷺ and said: 'O Messenger of Allāh! I had a dream at night while I was sleeping in which I was praying behind a tree, when I prostrated the tree prostrated along with me. Then I heard it saying: (Allāhummaṭtub lī biḥā 'indaka ajran, wa da' annī biḥā wizran, wāj'alḥā lī biḥā 'indaka dhukhran, wa taqabbalḥā minnī kamā taqabbaltāhā min 'abdiki Dāwūd.)" (O Allāh! Record for me, a reward with You for it, remove a sin from me by it, and store it away for me with You, and accept it from me as You
accepted it from Your worshipper Dāwūd). Al-Ḥasan said: "Ibn Jurāij said to me: 'Your grandfather said to me: "Ibn 'Abbās said: 'So the Prophet ﷺ recited (an Āyah of) prostration then prostrated.'" (He said) "So Ibn 'Abbās said: 'I listened to him, and he was saying the same as the man informed that the tree had said.'" (Ḥasan)
(He said:) There are narrations on this topic from Abū Sa'eed.
Abū 'Eisā said: This Ḥadīth is (Ḥasan) Gharīb as a Ḥadīth of Ibn 'Abbās, we do not know of it except from this route.

Commentary
The real supplication for the recital prostration is the one mentioned in this Ḥadīth. So the known supplication coming in the following Ḥadīth 'Sajada wajhiya...' the Prophet used to read it in the recital prostration of the night prayer, as clearly mentioned in the Ḥadīth itself. This clear evidence also exists in the narration of Ṣaḥīḥ Muslim. (Ṣaḥīḥ Muslim, Ḥadīth: 771)
