حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ، حَدَّثَنَا بَكْرُ بْنُ مُضَرَ، عَنْ ابْنِ الْهَادِ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، عَنْ عَامِرِ بْنِ سَعْدِ بْنِ أَبِي وَقَّاصٍ، عَنْ الْعَبَّاسِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْمُطَّلِبِ، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، يَقُولُ : " إِذَا سَجَدَ الْعَبْدُ سَجَدَ مَعَهُ سَبْعَةُ آرَابٍ ، وَجْهُهُ وَكَفَّاهُ وَرُكْبَتَاهُ وَقَدْمَاهُ " قَالَ : وَفِي الْبَاب عَنْ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ ، وَأَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ، وَجَابِرٍ ، وَأَبِي سَعِيدٍ ، قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى : حَدِيثُ الْعَبَّاسِ حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ وَعَلَيْهِ الْعَمَلُ عِنْدَ أَهْلِ الْعِلْمِ .

Hadith Commentary: Benefits and Issues:
From this hadith, it is understood that shirk, that is:
associating anyone with Allah Ta'ala in His essence, attributes, actions, or rights,
is such a heinous crime that such a person will be deprived of your intercession on the Day of Judgment.
However, one who commits a major sin (kabirah),
will be deserving of intercession, and at some point will be saved from Hell.

Benefit:
Prostration (sujud) is the most excellent way for a servant to express humility before Allah. At this moment, seven parts of the body touch the ground, as if all these limbs are practically expressing servitude.
The combination of the heart’s humility and the limbs touching the ground constitutes the true prostration.
A servant should strive to make his prostration as complete as possible so that he may attain the greatest possible pleasure of Allah.
