The ruling on prostration for forgetfulness when recitation is forgotten in the third rak'ah
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner says: Shaykh, if I am praying and in the third rak'ah I recite a surah after al-Fatihah, such that I forgot, is prostration for forgetfulness obligatory for me, and when is it, before or after the taslim?
Answer:
It is not obligatory for you. However, if you recite something from the Qur'an in the last two rak'ahs along with al-Fatihah by mistake, it is recommended that you prostrate for forgetfulness, as a recommendation, not as an obligation. Yes.
