Sajda Tilawat
By Mufti Ebrahim Desai
Posted: 4 Shawwal 1422, 19 December 2001
| Q. 1) If the Ayat of Sajjda is heard while listening to Tape/Radio, is it
necessary to perform the Sajjda Tilawat? |
A. 1) If the Aayat of Sajdah is heard on tape recorder or played on radio, Sajda
Tilaawat is not necessary. If the recitation is live on Radio, Sajda Tilawat is necessary.
| Q. 2) During the month of Ramadan the mosque speakers are used in the Taraweeh.
The voice is also heard outside the mosque. As the whole Quran is recited in the Taraweeh
and obviously Ayaat of Sajjda are also recited. Now a person sitting at his home hears
those Ayaat, is he going to perform those Sajjda Tilawat? |
A. 2) Yes.
| Q. 3) What is the correct way to do Sajda Tilawat? Do we need to say Takbir and
give salam to both sides like in salat? |
A.) Sajda-e-Tilawat is simply to make sajda by saying Allahu-Akbar,
going into sajda, and reciting three times 'Subhaana rabbi-al a'alaa'. There is no need to
stand or even raise the hands, as one would do when commencing Salat. There is also no
salam on any side after making the sajda. And Allah Knows Best.
