Question:
Our sister also asks and says: I am asking about the prostration in the Noble Qur'an. Is it just a prostration? Or is it a complete unit of prayer, meaning: the opening of the Qur'an and a short surah, then bowing, then prostration?
Answer:
The prostration for recitation is just one prostration, a standalone prostration. When one comes upon the verse of prostration, he prostrates, saying: Allahu Akbar, and he prostrates one prostration on the ground, saying in it:Sunan an-Nasa'i 1133Sahih (Darussalam) just as he says in the prostration of prayer. If he adds, saying: that is good, just as it is said in the prostration of prayer, equally.
And if he makes other supplications along with Subhan Rabbi al-A'la, Subhan Rabbi al-A'la, all of that is good. The point is that it is like the prostration of prayer, where he says what is said in the prostration of prayer. Among that is saying:Sahih Muslim 771a This is said in the prostration of prayer, and it is said in the prostration of recitation, and it is said in the prostration for forgetfulness. All of that is permissible.
The presenter: May Allah reward you with good.

Answer:
The prostration for recitation is just one prostration, a standalone prostration. When one comes upon the verse of prostration, he prostrates, saying: Allahu Akbar, and he prostrates one prostration on the ground, saying in it:
Subhan Rabbial-A'la, Subhan Rabbial-A'la
سبحان ربي الأعلى، سبحان ربي الأعلىMy face prostrated to the One who created it. O Allah, to You I submitted, and in You I believed. My face prostrated to the One who created it and gave it form, and opened its hearing and sight, by His power and might. Blessed is Allah, the best of creators.
سجد وجهي للذي خلقه، اللهم لك أسلمت، وبك آمنت، سجد وجهي للذي خلقه وصوره، وشق سمعه، وبصره، بحوله وقوته، تبارك الله أحسن الخالقينAnd if he makes other supplications along with Subhan Rabbi al-A'la, Subhan Rabbi al-A'la, all of that is good. The point is that it is like the prostration of prayer, where he says what is said in the prostration of prayer. Among that is saying:
O Allah, it is to Thee that I prostrate myself and it is in Thee that I affirm my faith, and I submit to Thee. My face is submitted before One Who created it, and shaped it, and opened his faculties of hearing and seeing. Blessed is Allah, the best of Creators
اللهم لك سجدت، وبك آمنت، ولك أسلمت، سجد وجهي للذي خلقه وصوره، وشق سمعه وبصره، بحوله وقوته، تبارك الله أحسن الخالقينThe presenter: May Allah reward you with good.
