How a Woman Sits in the Tashahhud

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Regarding the woman, how is the sitting for the first and last tashahhud in the four-rak'ah prayer?

Answer:
The correct view is that she is like the man; based on the saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him):
offer your prayers in the way you saw me offering my prayersصلوا كما رأيتموني أصلي
Sahih al-Bukhari 6008
and he did not say this specifically for the men, but rather he said (peace and blessings be upon him):
offer your prayers in the way you saw me offering my prayersصلوا كما رأيتموني أصلي
Sahih al-Bukhari 6008
So the woman and the man are equal in this. Between the two prostrations, she sits on her left foot, spreading it out, and sits on it. In the first tashahhud, it is likewise. In the last one, she sits in the turuk position, sitting on her buttocks, and she brings her left foot out from her right side, under her right foot, just like the man, equally. This is the correct view. Yes.

The presenter : May Allah reward you with good.
