Forgetting to make sajda-e-sahw

· 29 Jumada I 1439 AH1 min readEnglish

Question

If I completed my salah and forgot to do sajda sahw, how to do it after salah? After salam if I sit and recite attahiyaat and say salam on the right side and do two sajdah and say salam to both sides. Is it the correct way?

Answer

The namaaz will be valid, but this is not the right procedure. The right procedure is that you repeat the tashahhud after the sajdah sahw.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
