Question:
He says: I see Allah with my heart in my prostration. Is this a form of waswas?
Answer:
Faith in Allah (Mighty and Majestic) in prostration and in other states means that you believe in Allah and worship Him as if you see Him, as the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:Sahih al-Bukhari 4777. As for seeing Allah with the eye, this is not possible in this world, neither for the messengers nor for anyone else. Allah (Exalted and Majestic is He) is seen on the Day of Resurrection by the believers, who see Him in Paradise. As for seeing Allah with the heart, meaning that a person is certain that Allah sees him and is aware of him, this is a good thing. This is part of ihsan (excellence in worship). Yes.

Ihsan is to worship Allah as if you see Him, and if you do not achieve this state of devotion, then (take it for granted that) Allah sees you.
الإحسان أن تعبد الله كأنك تراه، فإن لم تكن تراه فإنه يراك
