Question

Please tell me when and how to make sajda from certain ayaats in Quaraan.

Answer

When performing Sajda-e-Sahw, one must be in the state of Wudhu.

It is Mustahabb (desirable) to stand up and say 'Allaahu Akbar' without raising the hands and go straight into Sajdah. Read 'Subhaana Rabbiyal a`ala ' 3 times, arise out of Sajdah and whilst standing up, say 'Allaahu Akbar'. There is no Salaam after standing up. It is better to begin and end the Sajdah from the standing position, however, it is also correct to commence and terminate it from the Jalsa (sitting) position.

Sajda Tilaawat should be made as soon as possible.
