Lesson No 88

  1. What other things render a remedial Sijdah necessary?

Ans. The following lapses, if done by a person, render a Sijdah necessary to remedy them:

    1. doing the bowing twice;
    2. doing three Sijdahs in place of two;
    3. Tashah-hud being left out in the first or second Qa’dah;
    4. Darud at least as much as ;

      5. (AL-LAHUM-MA SAL-LI ‘ALA MUHAM-MAD)

      having been recited after Tashah-hud in the first sitting, or sitting idle as long as one would take in saying the aforesaid words;

    5. the Imam having recited under lips (below the audible pitch ) in prayers meant to be said audibly;
    6. the Imam having recited audibly in prayers meant to be said below the audible pitch.

Any one of the acts detailed above will render a  remedial Sijdah necessary, provided the lapses are genuine i.e. they have been committed without intention.

  1. What should a follower do if, in following the head of the prayer, he himself commits some lapse or error?

Ans. A lapse or error on the part of the follower does not render the remedial Sijdah necessary for him.

  1. What should a junior partner of the Imam (Masbuq) do, if he commits some error or lapse in saying the missed part of the prayer after the Imam has finished?

Ans. In such an event a remedial Sijdah in the last sitting of the prayer is compulsory.

SIJDAH IN RECITATION

(Sijdah Tilawah)

  1. What is a Sijdah Tilawah?

Ans. Tilawah means recitation. There are a few points in the Quran which, if come across, either in reading or listening, make a Sijdah compulsory for those who read or hear them. These are known as the Sijdahs in recitation.

  1. How many such points are there in the Qur-an which, if come across in reading or hearing, render a Sijdah necessary?

Ans. There are fourteen such points in the whole of the Qur-an. These are also known as fourteen Sijdahs.

  1. How and when to do the Sijdah if one recites the Sijdah-verse outside Salat?

Ans. It is better to do the Sijdah concurrently with the recitation of the verse that necessitates such a Sijdah. Doing it later is also all right. Delaying it unduly is undesirable.

For a Sijdah outside Salat the correct procedure is to say the Takbir while you are on your legs, then go to Sijdah and be on your legs again, saying Takbir. Sijdah done from a sitting position followed by another sitting is also permitted.
