Here is the hadith in Arabic so no Muslim can say we kuffar make things up:

يا جبريل ، أيصلي ربك ؟ قَالَ : نعم . قلتُ : ما صلاته ؟ قَالَ : سبوح قدوس رب الملائكة والروح ، سبقت رحمتي غضبي "

This can be rendered as: (Muhammad is saying): O Gabriel does your Master (Allah) pray? He (Gabriel) said yes! I (Muhammad) said: and what is his prayer? He (Gabriel) said: Sabooh (I will explain this word below) Holy the Master of the angels and the Soul (also spirit) My compassion comes before my anger!

Allah prays! So who is the Allah of Allah?

Well to make things more interesting and spicy no one has a clue what the word Sabooh really means! However, here is what Muslims tell us that this word really means:

هو الذي سبَّح بحمدهِ المسبِّحون

Or: He who is praised/glorified with his praise those that praise!

Allah prays! Mash'allah

Oh there is more disasters in the same Hadith: Well guess what? The God of Moses (in Islam he is supposed to be Allah too) also prays:

قَالَ بنو إسرائيل لِموسى : " هَلْ يصلي ربك ؟ فتكايد مُوسَى لذلك ، فقال الله تعالى : ما قالوا لك يا مُوسَى ؟ فقال : الَّذِي سَمِعْتُ . قَالَ : فأخبرهم إني أصلي ، وإن صلاتي تطفئ غضبي

However, Moses' Allah prays to get rid of his anger! Anger management may be?
