A teacher says: Prostrating for other than worship is permissible, and he cited the hadith, “I would have ordered a woman to prostrate to her husband.”

Question:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. This questioner says: We have a teacher in a memorization school who says that prostrating for other than worship is permissible. He cited a hadith of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) in which he said, “I would have ordered a woman to prostrate to her husband.” He also cited the story of the parents of Yusuf (peace be upon them). Many of the students were convinced by this view because of the teacher’s status among them. We agreed to ask one of the scholars to clarify this issue.

Answer:
This is a false statement, this is a false statement, and it is not permissible to prostrate to anyone other than Allah (Mighty and Majestic). The Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) said, “If I were to order,” if it were by way of hypothesis, as in the saying, “If…” Does the Messenger associate partners with Allah? But this is by way of hypothesis, by way of supposition. So the Messenger said, “If I were to order,” meaning hypothetically. So this is an error, this is a false argument, and this shows that he is ignorant, or that he wants to mislead the people.
As for the story of Yusuf, that was a prostration of greeting, and that was permissible in their law, not in our law. Our law forbids prostrating to a created being, whether as worship or as a greeting. Even bowing the head is not permissible. So how can prostration be permissible?
If the law of those before us is contradicted by our law, it is not permissible; it becomes abrogated. The law of those before us is abrogated. So this is a false argument, and he must retract this fatwa, fear Allah (Mighty and Majestic), and return to the truth. Yes.
