The ruling on prostrating for recitation upon hearing a prostration verse from the radio
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
His Eminence the Shaykh, this questioner says: What are the conditions for the prostration when hearing a radio reciter or a verse that is recited with a prostration? And is it obligatory for a person to be in a state of ablution or not?
Answer: Prostrating for the radio is not prescribed for the one who hears it to prostrate; because he is not reciting for you, rather he is reciting for others, ..... ..... it is only the Qur'an, prostrating for the radio does not involve prostration, rather you only listen to the benefit. As for if a person recites for you and you are listening to him, you prostrate with him when he prostrates, in the mosque or in the house or in any place, you prostrate with him when he prostrates, and you are listening to him. And the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) recited upon Zayd ibn Thabit Surat al-Najm, so Zayd did not prostrate and the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) did not prostrate, so this indicates that this is not obligatory and the matter is broad, and praise be to Allah. Yes.
