Question:
May Allah reward you. Your Eminence, the father, the questioner asks: Does the preacher prostrate on the pulpit? And does he do so to teach the people the Sunnah?
Answer:
No. If he intends to prostrate, he should descend and prostrate on the ground, and those present should prostrate with him, as 'Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) used to do.
