Sajdah-e-Shukr

Question

After reading Nafl Salaah or Qadha Salaah, can I make Sajdah Shukr? After every Salaam, I go down in Sajdah, make Shukr and sometimes make a small Dua. Is this acceptable?

Answer

To make Sajdah Shukr is permissible and it is established from Rasulullah Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam. However, the Fuqaha have mentioned that it should not be made after Fardh or Witr Salaah as the general masses may consider it to be Sunnah or Waajib. However, there is no issue making Sajda-e-Shukr after Qadha Salaah.

ALLAH TA’ALA IN HIS INFINITE KNOWLEDGE KNOWS BEST!

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