How to do sajdah -e-tilawat when reading quran in salah?

Answer 1

SAJDAH TILAAWAT

One should note that the pre-requisites of Salaah in general are also the pre-requisites of Sajdah-tilaawat:

1. There are fourteen places of sajdah-tilaawat in the holy Qur'an. Whenever the word "sajdah" appears on the margin of the holy Qur'an, then on reciting that verse; sajdah becomes Wajib. This sajdah is known as sajdah-tilaawat.

2. The method of making sajdah-tilaawat is as follows: the person should say Allahu Akbar and go into sajdah. When saying Allahu Akbar the hands should not be raised. While in sajdah say: Subhaana Rabbiyal A'alaa at least three times. Thereafter, he should say Allahu Akbar and raise his head. The sajdah-tilaawat is

now complete.

3. It is preferable to stand up and then say Allahu Akbar and go into sajdah. And thereafter to say Allahu Akbar and stand up from the sajdah. It is also permissible to go into sajdah and come up from it while in the sitting position without standing up at all.

4. Sajdah-tilaawat becomes Wajib on the person who recites a verse of sajdah and also on the person who hears it being recited. This is irrespective of whether the person had sat down with the intention of listening to the Qur'an, or whether he was preoccupied with some work, or whether he heard it without intending to listen to it. It is therefore better to recite the verse of sajdah softly so that sajdah-tilaawat does not become Wajib on anyone else.

5. If a person recites a verse of sajdah while he is in salaah, then upon reciting the verse, he should immediately go into sajdah and then continue with the rest of the surah, and then go into ruku. If a person does not go immediately into sajdah, but goes into sajdah after reciting a few more verses; even then this sajdah will be proper. And if he recites several more verses and then goes into sajdah, the sajdah will be proper, but he will be sinning.

6. If he recites a verse of sajdah while in salaah, but did not make sajdah in the salaah; then the sajdah will not be valid if he makes it out of salaah. He will remain a sinner forever. Now there is no way of absolving himself except through repentance and seeking forgiveness.
