The Condition of Ritual Purity in the Prostration of Recitation
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Is ritual purity a condition for the prostration of recitation?
Answer:
The stronger position is that it is not a condition, because prostration of recitation is not a prayer; it is not a prayer. Therefore, it is permissible for one to recite the Qur'an from memory, even if he is in a state of minor ritual impurity and not in a continuous state. It is permissible, and indeed it is prescribed for him to prostrate in response to the recitation. If the recitation flows, the prostration flows. Yes.
