Hadith 3491
Musnad of 'Abdullah bin al-'Abbas bin 'Abdul-Muttalib from the Prophet
It was narrated that Ibn ‘Abbas (رضي الله عنه) said:
I stayed overnight with my maternal aunt Maimoonah. The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) got up at night... And he narrated the hadeeth. He said: Then he bowed and I heard him say whilst bowing: "Subhana Rabbiyal-‘Azeem (Glory be to my Lord Most Great)." Then he raised his head and praised Allah as much as He willed that he should praise Him. Then he prostrated, and he used to say in his prostration: “Subhana Rabbiyal-A'la (Glory be to my Lord Most High)." Then he raised his head, and he used to say between the two prostrations: "Lord forgive me, and have mercy on me, and meet my needs, and raise me in status, and grant me provision, and guide me.”
