Question:
This questioner says: If I am reciting the Qur'an while performing tawaf and I come upon a prostration verse, what should I do?
Answer:
The prostration is not obligatory; the prostration of recitation is not obligatory. So if the tawaf area is crowded and you fear stumbling if you prostrate, do not prostrate, as it is not obligatory. And if you are on the edge of the tawaf area where there is space, there is no harm in prostrating.
