The questioner:
The questioner asks: In sujud and ruku', if one does not say "Subhana Rabbi al-A'la" or "Subhana Rabbi al-A'zim," and limits oneself to "Subuh" for example, or "Quddus," is that sufficient?
The Shaykh:
If he is ignorant, there is no harm. If he is ignorant or forgetful, there is no blame. But if he does it intentionally, it is not permissible. One must say "Subhana Rabbi al-A'la al-A'zim" in sujud, and "Subhana Rabbi al-A'zim" in ruku'. It is necessary. It is obligatory according to the correct opinion. Most scholars, if they see it, consider the prayer valid and hold that it is recommended. But the correct opinion is that "Subhana Rabbi al-A'zim" in ruku' is obligatory, and "Subhana Rabbi al-A'zim" in sujud is obligatory. Because the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) commanded it and was angry about it, and said: "Pray as you have seen me praying." If he is an imam and leaves it out, or if he is praying alone and leaves it out by mistake, he performs the prostration for forgetfulness. As for the ma'mum, he does not have to prostrate. If he entered with the imam from the beginning of the prayer, he does not have to perform the prostration for forgetfulness, following the imam. But if he is a masbuq, he completes his prayer and performs the prostration for forgetfulness.
The questioner:
The other tasbih phrases do not suffice for "Subhana Rabbi."
The Shaykh:
It does not come, it does not come.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you.
