Before concluding the speech, I would like to present an Islamic ruling:
(Clarifying the correct sharꜤī ruling and correcting a common misconception.)
Issue: During prostration, placing the forehead firmly on the ground is obligatory (farḍ), and placing the nasal bone on the ground is compulsory (wājib).
Explanation: This is an important issue that is often neglected. Many people only place the tip of the nose on the ground during prostration. This is incorrect. If you place a finger on your nose and press lightly, you will feel a hard bone; it is compulsory for this bone to touch the ground during sujūd.
If this does not occur, the prayer becomes makrūh taḥrīmī (prohibitively disliked) and it is wājib to repeat it. Therefore, whenever you perform prostration, make it a habit to place the nasal bone on the ground with full care.
Nowadays, since it is winter, people commonly wear hats to protect themselves from the cold. Sometimes they cover the forehead, and because they are often thick woollen hats, the forehead does not firmly rest on the ground due to the hat coming in between. This also requires attention.
Ideally, whenever you pray while wearing a thick woollen hat, you should move it away from the forehead. However, if due to some necessity the hat must remain on the forehead, place the forehead on the ground and press it firmly until you feel the hardness of the ground, such that pressing further does not cause it to compress more. In this case, the prayer will be valid.[1]
