Musnad Abi Ya'la 2387 — the Messenger of Allah ﷺ lifted the curtain
وَعَنِ ابْنِ عُيَيْنَةَ قَالَ : حَدَّثَنِي سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ سُحَيْمٍ ، عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ مَعْبَدِ بْنِ عَبَّاسٍ ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ : كَشَفَ رَسُولُ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - السِّتَارَةَ وَالنَّاسُ صُفُوفٌ خَلْفَ أَبِي بَكْرٍ ، فَقَالَ : يَا أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ ، إِنَّهُ لَمْ يَبْقَ مِنْ مُبَشِّرَاتِ النُّبُوَّةِ إِلَّا الرُّؤْيَا الصَّالِحَةَ يَرَاهَا الْمُسْلِمُ ، أَوْ تُرَى لَهُ ، أَلَا وَإِنِّي نُهِيتُ أَنْ أَقْرَأَ رَاكِعًا أَوْ سَاجِدًا ، فَأَمَّا الرُّكُوعُ فَعَظِّمُوا فِيهِ الرَّبَّ ، وَأَمَّا السُّجُودُ فَاجْتَهِدُوا فِي الدُّعَاءِ ، فَقَمِنٌ أَنْ يُسْتَجَابَ لَكُمْ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) lifted the curtain (of his blessed room, during his final illness) and saw the people standing in rows praying behind Sayyiduna Abu Bakr al-Siddiq (may Allah be pleased with him). At that time he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "O people! Nothing now remains of the glad tidings of prophethood except the righteous dream, which a Muslim sees himself or which is shown (to someone else) for him. Behold! I have been forbidden to recite the Noble Qur'an while bowing (ruku') or prostrating (sujud). So in bowing, proclaim the greatness and majesty of the Lord, and in prostration strive to supplicate abundantly, for in that state it is worthy that your supplication be answered."
