#23 Surah Najm

Book of Prostration During Recital of Qur'an

(1) Chapter: Prostrations during the recitation of the Qur'an

Hadith 1067

The Prophet (صلى الله عليه و سلم) recited Suratan-Najm at Mecca and prostrated while reciting it and those who were with him did the same except an old man who took a handful of small stones or earth and lifted it to his forehead and said, "This is sufficient for me." Later on, I saw him killed as a non-believer.
