أَخْبَرَنَا حُمَيْدُ بْنُ مَسْعَدَةَ عَنْ سُلَيْمٍ وَهُوَ ابْنُ أَخْضَرَ عَنِ التَّيْمِيِّ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي بَكْرُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ الْمُزَنِيُّ عَنْ أَبِي رَافِعٍ قَالَ
صَلَّيْتُ خَلْفَ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ صَلاَةَ الْعِشَاءِ يَعْنِي الْعَتَمَةَ فَقَرَأَ سُورَةَ { إِذَا السَّمَاءُ انْشَقَّتْ } فَسَجَدَ فِيهَا فَلَمَّا فَرَغَ قُلْتُ يَا أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ هَذِهِ يَعْنِي سَجْدَةً مَا كُنَّا نَسْجُدُهَا قَالَ سَجَدَ بِهَا أَبُو الْقَاسِمِ ﷺ وَأَنَا خَلْفَهُ فَلاَ أَزَالُ أَسْجُدُ بِهَا حَتَّى أَلْقَى أَبَا الْقَاسِمِ ﷺ

"I prayed Isha' prayer- meaning Al-'Atamah behind Abu Hurairah and he recited: 'When the heaven is split asunder' and prostrated during it. When he had finished praying, I said: 'O Abu Hurairah, (this is) a prostration that we are not used to.' He said: 'Abu Al-Qasim ﷺ did this prostration and I was (praying) behind him, and I will continue to do this prostration until I meet Abu Al-Qasim.
