Remaining rulings of Sajdah Tilawat

٭ It is not necessary to recite the entire verse for the Sajdah to become Wajib. Merely reciting the word which contains the meaning of Sajdah along with a word present before or after it is sufficient [for it to become Wajib]. (Rad-dul-Muhtar, vol. 2, pp. 694)

٭ Method of Sajdah-e-Tilawat: The Sunnah method of the Sajdah is as follows: Stand up, and then whilst saying اَللّٰهُ اَكۡبَر go into Sajdah and recite سُبْحٰنَ رَبِّیَ الْاَعْلٰی a minimum of 3 times. Then whilst saying اَللّٰهُ اَكۡبَر, stand up. Reciting اَللّٰهُ اَكۡبَر before and after the Sajdah is Sunnah. Standing before going into Sajdah and standing after performing the Sajdah are both Mustahab [preferable acts]. (Durr-e-Mukhtar, vol. 2, pp. 699)

٭   It is not required to raise the hands when saying اَللّٰہُ اَکْبَر for the Sajdah-e-
Tilawat, nor is it required to recite the Tashahhud (Attahiyyat) or to do Salam.(Tanveer-ul-Absaar, vol. 2, pp. 700)

٭   When making an intention for Sajdah-e-Tilawat, it is not necessary to intend that ‘it is the Sajdah of such a verse’; a general intention of performing Sajdah Tilawat is sufficient. (Durr-e-Mukhtar, Rad-dul-Muhtar, vol. 2, pp. 699)

٭   If a verse of Sajdah is recited outside of Salah, it is not Wajib to perform the Sajdah immediately. It is, however, preferred to perform it immediately. If one is in the state of Wudu, then delaying itis Makruh-e-
Tanzeehi. (Durr-e-Mukhtar, vol. 2, pp. 703)
