Doubt regarding the number of prostrations
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
I seek Allah's forgiveness. What is the ruling for one who doubts the number of prostrations?
Answer:
He should build upon certainty. If he doubts the number of prostrations, he builds upon certainty and performs the prostration for forgetfulness upon the closing salam. So if he doubts whether he prostrated two prostrations or only one, he makes it one and prostrates the second. And if he wants to say the salam, he prostrates the second. Yes.
