Making sajdah sahw in every namaaz

Question

In almost every salah I tend to think that I skipped something that I need to do sajda sahw for, but I believe it is not correct everytime. No matter how much I tend to focus and not do sajda sahw, I think that I skipped this out or that. What is the ruling in such a case?

Answer

Until you are not sure don't ever do sajdah sahw.

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