The Abrogation of the Permissibility of the Prostration of Greeting
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: What is the ruling on the prostration of greeting for human beings?
Answer:
If it was permissible and then abrogated, then prostration is not permissible except for Allah (Mighty and Majestic). When Mu'adh ibn Jabal came from the direction of Yemen, where they were performing the prostration of greeting to their great men, he wanted to prostrate to the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him), but he prevented him from doing so and said, "If I were to command anyone to prostrate to anyone, I would command the woman to prostrate to her husband because of the magnitude of his right over her." Yes.
