The Condition of Ritual Purity in the Prostration of Recitation

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Is ritual purity a condition for the prostration of recitation?

Answer:
The stronger position is that it is not required, because the prostration of recitation is not a prayer. It is permissible to recite the Qur'an from memory, even while in a state of minor ritual impurity, without having performed wudu. In fact, it is prescribed for him to prostrate, just as in some recitations. If recitation is permissible, then prostration is permissible. Yes.
