The Prostration of Gratitude (Sujood Al-Shukr) and What to Say in it
وَقَالَ اَلصَّادِقُ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ: «إِنَّ اَلْعَبْدَ إِذَا سَجَدَ فَقَالَ يَا رَبِّ يَا رَبِّ حَتَّى يَنْقَطِعَ نَفَسُهُ قَالَ لَهُ اَلرَّبُّ تَبَارَكَ وتَعَالَى «لَبَّيْكَ مَا حَاجَتُكَ ».
Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq عليه السلام said: "When a servant prostrates and says, 'O’ Lord عز وجل, O’ Lord عز وجل,' until their breath runs out, the Lord عز وجل, Blessed and Exalted, responds, 'Here I am; what is your need?'".
