Riyad as-Salihin 1428 (Book 15, Hadith 21) #37917
Closeness to Allah Through Prostration

SUMMARY: The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) taught that a person is closest to Allah when they are in prostration, and should therefore increase their supplications while prostrating.

Abu Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Messenger of Allah said, "A slave becomes nearest to his Rabb when he is in prostration. So increase supplications while prostrating". Muslim.
وعن أبي هريرة رضي الله عنه أن رسول الله قال‏:‏ ‏ "‏أقرب ما يكون العبد من ربه وهو ساجد، فأكثروا الدعاء‏"‏ ‏(‏‏(‏رواه مسلم‏)‏‏)‏‏.‏

EXPLANATIONS:
The hadith of Abu Hurairah teaches us the importance of supplication and prostration in our relationship with Allah. It is said that when we are in prostration, we are closest to our Lord, so it is important for us to make the most of this time by increasing our supplications. This hadith encourages us to take advantage of this special moment and use it as an opportunity for prayer and reflection. We can also learn from this hadith that even though we may not always feel close to God, He is always near us if we take the time to reach out through prayer and supplication.
