Answer
1. When going into Sajda, the knees should be placed on the ground before the hands. We are not aware of any differences of opinion in this ruling. 2. According to the Hanafi Madhab, it is preferable for the Imaam and the Muqtadies (followers to say the Ameen softly.
3. According to the Hanafi madhab, it is preferable for a male to place the hands below the navel.

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Darul Iftaa Mahmudiyyah (AskImam). It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
