Question
Please tell the full method of sajda sahu.
Answer
1. Refer below.%0D%0A2. Waajibaat are those items that are necessary to complete the Salaat. If%0D%0Aone misses any one of them unknowingly, this mistake can be compensated by%0D%0Aperforming Sajda-e-Sahw (Sajdah done for mistakes made unknowingly). The%0D%0Amethod of performing this Sajdah is that after the Tashahhud of the last%0D%0ARakaat, make one Salaam to the right only and perform two Sajdahs and%0D%0Athereafter read the complete Tashahhud, Durood and Du'aas. Make both Salaams%0D%0Athereafter.%0D%0AIf one does not perform Sajda Sahw or if one misses a Waajib knowingly, it%0D%0Ais necessary to perform that Salaat all over again.%0D%0A%0D%0Aand Allah Ta'ala Knows Best%0D%0A%0D%0AMufti Ebrahim Desai%0D%0AFATWA DEPT.%0D%0A%0D%0A1.
