Lesson No 87

Q. What things make the remedial Sijdah compulsory?

Ans. The remedial Sijdah falls due in any one of the following contingencies:

    1. a Wajib having been omitted;
    2. delay occurring in performing a Wajib act;
    3. delay occurring in performing a commanded act;
    4. some commanded act having been advanced in order.
    5. Some commanded act having been repeated (such as doing the bowing twice), or procedure for some Wajib act having been altered.

All the above contingencies shall render a remedial Sijdah necessary.

  1. What, if one deliberately does the acts which, if done inadvertently, necessitate a remedial Sijdah?

Ans. The remedial Sijdah cannot make good a deliberate error. Saying the Salat again in such a case is imperative.

  1. How many remedial Sijdahs must be performed if several things happen in a Salat which would even singly necessitate a remedial Sijdah?

Ans. It is enough to do two Sijdahs in one continuation.

  1. What deviations from the norms of recitation render a remedial Sijdah necessary?

Ans. The following deviations from the norms of recitation would render a remedial Sijdah Wajib:

    1. Al-Fatihah having been left out in the first or second Rak’ah or both in a Fard Salat, and in one or more Rak’ahs of a Wajib, Masnun or Nafl prayer;
    2. The whole of Al-Fatihah or greater p art of it having been repeated in anyone of the above said Rak’ahs.
    3. The Surah having been advanced and recited before the Al-Fatihah;
    4. The Surah having been left out in any prayer (whether Fard, Masnun or Nafl) except in the third and fourth Rak’ahs of Salat.

Provided always that all the above acts were committed inadvertently.

  1. Will a remedial Sijdah be necessary if a person fails to do justice with or proper gapping between the various constituents of the Salat?

Ans. Yes, the remedial Sijdah will be necessary.

  1. What should one do if one has forgotten to do the first sitting?

Ans. In rising from prostration if one is still nearer the position for sitting, he should do the sitting. In case he remembers the Qa’dah when he has already risen so much as to be nearer the position for standing, he should skip sitting for the time being and do the standing. To remedy it , he should do the Sijdah towards the end and the Slat will be good.
