Hadith 9607

حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ ، عَنْ هِشَامٍ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى ، عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ ، قَالَ : رَأَيْتُ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ سَجَدَ فِي إِذَا السَّمَاءُ انْشَقَّتْ ، قُلْتُ : تَسْجُدُ فِيهَا ؟ قَالَ : " إِنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، سَجَدَ فِيهَا " .
Abu Salamah says that once he saw Hazrat Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) recite Surah Inshiqaq, and when he reached the verse of prostration, he performed the prostration of recitation. I said to him, "I have not seen you perform prostration in this Surah before?" He replied, "The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) performed prostration in it."
