Is the hadith: (He used to say takbir at every lowering and raising) cited as evidence that one says takbir during prostration of recitation in prayer?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Al-Halabi : He saysThe questioner : It is authentic that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) used to say takbir at every lowering and raising. Is this hadith cited as evidence for saying takbir during prostration of recitation in prayer?
The Shaykh : No; because it refers to every lowering and raising in the customary prayers, and it is not customary in them to recite a verse of prostration except rarely; and the rare has no ruling. Therefore, and it has come in many hadiths that the Messenger (peace be upon him) used to recite a verse of prostration in prayer and would prostrate for it; and it has not come in any hadith, even one with a weak chain, that the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) said takbir and prostrated when he prostrated prostration of recitation in prayer; so saying takbir for prostration of recitation in prayer is not included in this authentic hadith.
Another questioner : Nor in a weak hadith?
The Shaykh : Yes, but may Allah forgive me and you. You distracted us and also distracted others with you. You did not hear me say: in prayer, even in a weak hadith, in prayer...
