Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: The imam recited a verse containing a prostration in the loud prayer, then went directly into bowing without prostrating for the recitation. However, some of the ma'mum assumed he had prostrated for the recitation, so they prostrated. They did not realize until he was saying, "Allah hears the one who praises Him," while rising from his bowing. Their question is: Do they bow directly and follow the imam, or do they perform a new rak'ah after the imam's taslim?
Answer:
They bow when they realize it. They bow and catch up with the imam. They bow and catch up with the imam. Yes.
