What should the person praying behind an imam do if he recites a verse in which there is a sajdah (prostration)?
Question: 120670
What should I do if I recite a soorah in which there is a sajdah when I am praying behind an imam?.
Praise be to Allah, and peace and blessings be upon the Messenger of Allah and his family.
You should not prostrate, because following the imam is
obligatory and the prostration of recitation is Sunnah. If a person is
praying behind an imam, it is not permissible for him to prostrate, and if
he prostrates deliberately although he knows that that is not permissible, then his prayer becomes invalid. End quote.
