Is it recommended to stand up for the prostration of recitation?

Question : If, for example, one is sitting, he stands up and then prostrates.

Answer : Yes, the more apparent view is that one does not stand up; the more apparent view is that he prostrates without standing. However, it is narrated from Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) that she prostrated in gratitude and then stood up, so they analogized this to her case. Then they also analogized it to the voluntary prayer, where it is recommended to pray standing. But as we said, analogy is not valid in matters of worship. Moreover, standing in voluntary prayer is intended in the voluntary prayer itself, unlike the prostration of recitation. So the weaker view is that he prostrates without standing. Yes.
