The ruling on adding bowing to the prostration of gratitude
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He prayed two rak'ahs. Should he be called to prayer with the odd-numbered prayer being two rak'ahs, or should he not pray two rak'ahs?
Answer:
The prostration of gratitude is a single prostration; it contains no bowing, and one does not add to it. If one adds to it, it becomes a religious innovation (bid'ah). If one adds bowing to the prostration, this becomes a bid'ah, and it is not permissible.
