Is it prescribed to sit in the tawruk position in a prayer that has only one tashahhud?

Question:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. This questioner asks: What is the ruling on sitting in the tawruk position in a prayer that has only one tashahhud?

Answer:
This is a matter on which there is scholarly disagreement, as mentioned by Ibn al-Qayyim in Zad al-Ma'ad. The correct view is that one sits in the tawruk position in the tashahhud that is followed by the taslim, whereas one does not sit in the tawruk position in the tashahhud that is not followed by the taslim. Yes.
