Shu'bah (may Allah have mercy on him) relates: I asked Sulayman al-A'mash (may Allah have mercy on him): When I recite a verse of warning during the prayer, may I make supplication? He narrated a hadith to me with this chain:
Sayyiduna Hudhayfah (may Allah be pleased with him) relates: We prayed with the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). In his bowing he (peace and blessings be upon him) would say 'Subhana rabbiya al-'azim' (Glory be to my Lord, the Magnificent) and in his prostrations 'Subhana rabbiya al-a'la' (Glory be to my Lord, the Most High). Whenever he came to a verse of mercy he would stop there and ask for mercy, and whenever he came to a verse of punishment he would pause there and seek refuge with Allah from the punishment.
