Question:
The prescribed i'qaa', may Allah forgive you?
Answer:
The i'qaa' reported from Ibn 'Abbas, which is from the Sunnah, is sitting on one's heels, either spread out or upright. The feet are either upright on the heels or spread out, and one sits on the heels. This is what was reported from Ibn 'Abbas. However, what is well known in the authentic hadiths is iftiraash. The hadiths regarding iftiraash are more numerous. The narration of Ibn 'Abbas in Muslim mentions that it is from the Sunnah, and perhaps the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) did it at some times.
