Is the prayer of tasbih prescribed?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. Umm Yasmin from al-Qassim, the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, asks about the prayer of tasbih: Is it prescribed? And are the hadiths reported about it in some books authentic?
Answer:
The prayer of tasbih is not authentic; rather, it is an innovation in two respects. First, regarding its chain of narration, its chain is not authentic according to the scholars; in fact, it is a very weak or broken chain. Second, its form contradicts the prescribed prayers because it involves reciting from the Qur'an during the bowing and during the prostration, which is not prescribed in the prayers. It also involves repeating specific surahs, which is not prescribed in the prayers. Thus, it contradicts the prescribed prayers, and its chain of narration is also not authentic. Whoever wants reward and goodness and desires to pray should pray the prescribed prayers, the Dhuha prayer, the night prayer, and the prescribed prayers established from the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him), such as the greeting of the mosque, the regular voluntary prayers attached to the obligatory ones, and the Witr prayer. Yes.
