The manner of prostration for one who prays sitting
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner says: Shaykh, if I pray while sitting, is it better for me to indicate the prostration or is it better for me to prostrate on the ground?
Answer:
If you are able to prostrate on the ground, it is obligatory for you to do so, because that is the original state. If you are unable to prostrate on the ground, you indicate with your head, lowering your head for the prostration, saying "Subhan Rabbi al-A'la" (Glory be to my Lord, the Most High) and making du'a' (supplication) with whatever Allah has made easy for you. Yes.
