Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The last questioner asks: Is it permissible to perform the prostration of recitation and the prostration of desire during the prohibited times?

Answer:
The prostration of recitation is heard in the recitation. If a person is reciting and comes upon a verse of prostration, he prostrates at any time, according to the correct opinion of the scholars, because it is attached to the recitation, and recitation is not prohibited during the prohibited times; rather, prayer is what is prohibited. The prostration of recitation is not considered a prayer, but rather a form of worship attached to the recitation. As for the prostration [for forgetfulness], it is not conceivable that it would occur during the prohibited times, because it is attached to and associated with the prayer in the obligatory prayer. If you pray the obligatory prayer and something occurs that makes the prostration for forgetfulness prescribed, then you prostrate before the closing salam or after the salam of the obligatory prayer, or it is attached to the obligatory prayer and does not stand alone. May Allah reward you with good. If it happens that one prays during a prohibited time and forgets in his prayer, then he prostrates for forgetfulness. Very well, may Allah reward you with good.
