The Takbir in Prostration of Recitation
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
And among the takbir is the fourth in the prostration of recitation, if it is near the prayer: the takbir when rising to prostrate, or the absence of takbir.
Answer:
According to Ibn al-Qayyim, the stronger position is to say takbir when lowering oneself, acting on the hadith you heard: "He said takbir and prostrated." Ibn al-Qayyim chooses this, holding that it is prescribed for him to say takbir only when lowering himself, because it is mentioned in this hadith, even though it is weak. In any case, if he says takbir, there is nothing wrong with it, if Allah wills.
