The ruling on supplicating with the Qur'an during prostration

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
A questioner says: Is it permissible for me, during prostration in prayer, after saying "Subhan Rabbi al-A'la" (Glory be to my Lord, the Most High), to supplicate and say
(1) Say, "I seek refuge in the Lord of daybreak (2) From the evil of that which He createdأَعُوذُ بِرَبِّ الْفَلَقِ مِن شَرِّ مَا خَلَقَ
[Al-Falaq 113:1-2]
, intending to supplicate rather than to recite?

Answer:
No, do not recite in prostration. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) forbade reciting the Qur'an in bowing and prostration. The Qur'an is only recited while standing. Yes.
