The ruling on leading prayer for one who omits the prostration of recitation
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
An imam leads the people in prayer and recites the prostration verse, but he does not prostrate when he recites the verse of prostration. Is there anything wrong with that?
Answer:
This is a deviation from the Sunnah. It is recommended that he prostrate. Why does he omit the prostration and persist in leaving it out? If he omits it occasionally, there is nothing wrong with that. But if he persists in leaving it out, that is abandoning the Sunnah and is not permissible. Yes.
