Is wudu' obligatory for the prostration of recitation?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He asks: Is wudu' required for the prostration of recitation?

Answer:
No, wudu' is not a condition for the prostration of recitation; because it is permissible to recite from memory without wudu', and as long as it is permissible to recite from memory without wudu', it is permissible for you to prostrate; because the prostration is attached to the recitation, so you prostrate even if you are not in a state of wudu'; because the prostration of recitation is not a prayer, it is an independent act of worship, and purity is only a condition for the prayer, and this is an independent act of worship and not a prayer. Yes.
