Ruling on standing up to do sajdat al-tilaawah
Question: 4950
Answer
Praise be to Allah, and peace and blessings be upon the Messenger of Allah and his family.
We know of no evidence (daleel) to suggest that he should stand up in order to do sajdat al-tilaawah.
And Allaah is the source of strength. May Allaah bless our Prophet Muhammad and his family and companions.
