Leaving out the tasbih in the prostration of recitation in the obligatory prayer

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: I performed the prostration of recitation in an obligatory prayer and did not say "Subhana Rabbi al-A'la" (Glory be to my Lord, the Most High), but I was content with saying "Sajada wajhiya lilladhi khalaqahu" (My face prostrates to the One who created it) and so on. Is my prostration valid?

Answer:
No, you did not perform the obligatory act, which is saying "Subhana Rabbi al-A'la." Your prostration is not valid, but this is a voluntary act; whether it is valid or not, you do not recite it. Yes.
