The Confirmed Prostration (Prophet ﷺ)

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
What is the ruling on the prostration in Surat Sad? Some imams prostrate when reciting it, while others do not.

Answer:
It is a recommended practice (sunnah) to prostrate in it when a Muslim recites it, whether in prayer or outside of it. This is based on the statement of Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him and him): “I saw the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) prostrating in it”—meaning the prostration in Surat Sad. And Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He) said: :
There has certainly been for you in the Messenger of Allah an excellent patternلَقَدْ كَانَ لَكُمْ فِي رَسُولِ اللَّهِ أُسْوَةٌ حَسَنَةٌ
[Al-Ahzab: 21]. And the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
offer your prayers in the way you saw me offering my prayersصلوا كما رأيتموني أصلي
