Is Sujud Al-Sahw (prostration of forgetfulness) required when repeating the Takbir of الانتقال (transitioning between prayer postures) in prayer?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
It is prescribed for one who inadvertently adds an extra takbir or tasbih in their prayer to perform the two prostrations of forgetfulness ( al-sahw) after the salutation (), as an atonement for that addition. This is done by way of recommendation, not obligation.
