:sl: brothers and sisters. this is wha can be saidwhen sitting between the 2 sajoods:

rabigfirli, rabigfirli (My Lord forgive me, My Lord forgive me)
(Abu dawood 1/231, see Sahih ibn majah 1/148)

or:

allahumagfirlee, warhamnee, wahdinee, wajbornee, wa afinee, waroqnee, warfa'nee
(O allah, forgive me, have mercy upon mew, guide me, enrichme, give me health, grant me sustenanence, and raise my rank.)'

(abu dawud, At-tirmithi and ibn majah, see: sahih at-timithi 1/90 and sahih ibn majah 1/148)


both duas where extracted from 'fortres of the muslim', reseached and compiled by: sahikh said bin wahf Al-qartani.

http://makedua.com/display_dua.php?sectionid=16


And the link i pasted earlier, Yasir Qadhi kinda explains the sunnah of sitting down like bro lolwatever explained. It's in Fiqh of Worship - Part 06


So that may be of some help insha'Allaah.


Allaah Almighty knows best. and jazak Allaah khayr brother dhulqarnaeen and sister maryam :)

^bro i tried to do what he said, but it was very painful and uncomfortable, and i couldnt keep my balance, i dont think i did it correctly (and he didnt mention any evidence for it either)

At first it might feel uncomfortable because a person's toes might not be used to the stretch, but gradually a person get's used to it insha'Allaah.

Also - he kept mentioning throughout the lecture that the reason why he never mentioned the evidences was because it was for beginners, so he never wanted to go into the depth of the scholarly opinions and every single ahadith. Because we know that the imaams of fiqh did have different opinions. If there was a more advanced fiqh lecture, then that would be better insha'Allaah. But right now, we just have to do some research insha'Allaah.


Allaah Almighty knows best.

but u know what bro, i use 2 agree with that opinion about making two versions of the same book (like albanis prayer)... but i heard another sheikh sayin that's wrong coz we should always mention the evidence, like even mentioning atleast source of hadith is all he had to do... coz wat tends 2 happen, is that the 'simplified' versions are wat get popular and the referenced ones die out... which is a pety in a thread like this 4 xample

khayr insh :)

As salaamu alaykum,

Sis cheese there's four types of ways to sit, one that was mentioned and another three which I studied in one of my Fiqh classes...
I can't explain them in words though so I'll try getting some sorta diagram InshaAllah.. wallahul musta3aan..

:salamext:


Yeah, thats what i understood too. A person get's used to it because naturally with time - the persons toes get more flexible insha'Allaah.

^ the toe bit is deffo not fardh... so it says in albani's prayer book (which is authentic, its just that i hav the summarised version:hiding: )

but the rest of the posture yep is wat u suppose 2do, i dont think the rest of it hurts does it?
 
Question: How should our feet be positioned at the times when we are seated during our prayers?

Answered by Sheikh Yûsuf al-Qâsim

Two types of sitting were related from the Prophet (peace be upon him) during prayer. The first type of sitting is the one after completing two units of prayer. The worshipper rests on his left foot and raises his right foot pointing it towards Qiblah. This is known as iftirâsh.

The second type of sitting comes in the final sitting of the three and four units’ prayers. The worshipper should sit on his posterior, extend the left leg out from his body from the right side and erect the right foot and point it towards the Qiblah. This is known as tawarruk.

The way you sit after two units is the same for all prayers. The only difference is in the final sitting of three and four unit prayers.

As salaamu alaykum,

Allahu a3lam Sis, I can't remember!!...

In a way I think it's waajib, because the hadeeth that the Prophet sallalaahu 3alayhi wasallam said: Salluu kamaa ra'aytumuunee Usallee... Pray as you've seen me pray....
and the word " salluu"/pray here Is a command .. meaning that it's obligatory for us to do..

and Allah knows best.. if i'm incorrect, correct me guys inshaAllah

Allah ma3akum :peace:
