The Ruling on Prostration of Greeting, Prostration of Recitation, and Facing the Qiblah
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The tribe of the Shaykh precedes you in the image of Yusuf. Why?
Answer:
This is a prostration of greeting, like the prostration of the angels to Adam. This is a prostration of greeting, not a prostration of worship. Prostration of worship is not permissible except for Allah. This is a prostration of greeting, and it was permissible in the law of those before us. As for our law, prostration is not permissible except for Allah, neither prostration of greeting nor prostration of worship.
Prostration is not permissible, nor bowing, nor bending; none of these is permissible for a created being in our law. As for the law of the previous people, prostration of greeting was permissible, such as what happened with Ya'qub and the tribes to Yusuf. This was a prostration of greeting, and it was permissible in their law.
As for prostration of recitation, if we say it is part of prayer, then facing the Qiblah is obligatory. If we say it is not part of prayer, then it is not obligatory. He reads.
Yes, he reads and prostrates in any direction, what Allah willed. But based on the general rule, it is recommended that every act of worship be directed toward the Qiblah. From the perspective of generality, there is no harm.
