The Obligation of the One Who Forgets the Prostration of Forgetfulness
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
May Allah reward you. Your Eminence, the father, the questioner says: You stated with us in a previous lesson that if a person praying leaves out the prostration of forgetfulness due to a deficiency in the prayer, his prayer is invalid. Is it permissible for him to perform the prostration?
The Shaykh:
Like what?
The questioner:
He says: May Allah reward you. You stated that if a person praying leaves out the prostration of forgetfulness due to a deficiency in the prayer, his prayer is invalid. Is it permissible for him to perform the prostration of forgetfulness immediately after the closing salam, then perform the tashahhud after that and say the salam?
The Shaykh:
I do not recall that we said his prayer becomes invalid. But they say: if he remembers it soon, he prostrates; and if a long time has passed or he has left the mosque, the prostration of forgetfulness is dropped from him. Yes.
The presenter:
You are better. Allah the Exalted.
