Arabic hadith text

حَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ، حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ، حَدَّثَنَا خَالِدٌ الْحَذَّاءُ، عَنْ رَجُلٍ، عَنْ أَبِي الْعَالِيَةِ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ، - رضى الله عنها - قَالَتْ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم يَقُولُ فِي سُجُودِ الْقُرْآنِ بِاللَّيْلِ يَقُولُ فِي السَّجْدَةِ مِرَارًا ‏"‏ سَجَدَ وَجْهِي لِلَّذِي خَلَقَهُ وَشَقَّ سَمْعَهُ وَبَصَرَهُ بِحَوْلِهِ وَقُوَّتِهِ ‏"‏ ‏.‏

Translation

Musaddad narrated to us: Ismail narrated to us: Khalid al-Hadhdha narrated to us, from a man, from Abu al-Aliyah, from Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her), who said: During his night prostrations while reciting the Quran, the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) would repeatedly say: My face has prostrated to the One who created it and fashioned its hearing and sight by His power and strength.
