Arabic hadith text

أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ وَهْبٍ، عَنْ عَمْرٍو، - يَعْنِي ابْنَ الْحَارِثِ - عَنْ عُمَارَةَ بْنِ غَزِيَّةَ، عَنْ سُمَىٍّ، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ أَبَا صَالِحٍ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ ‏ "‏ أَقْرَبُ مَا يَكُونُ الْعَبْدُ مِنْ رَبِّهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ وَهُوَ سَاجِدٌ فَأَكْثِرُوا الدُّعَاءَ ‏"‏ ‏.‏

Translation

Muhammad ibn Salamah reported to us; he said: Ibn Wahb narrated to us, from ‘Amr—meaning Ibn al-Harith—from ‘Umarah ibn Ghaziyah, from Sumayy, who heard Abu Salih, from Abu Hurayrah, that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: “The servant is closest to his Lord, Mighty and Majestic, while prostrating, so supplicate abundantly.”
