Performing the sajdah tilaawat after some time
Question
After one had recited a Sajdah Tilawat aayat, how soon should the sajdah be made? Must it be made immediately or can the sajdah be made at any other time?
Answer
It is better to do the sajdah-e-tilaawah immediately. If one does not do it immediately but does it later, it will be permissible but makrooh-e-tanzihi (disliked).
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
