English

Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him) said regarding the prostration in Surah Al-Haqq: "The first prostration is obligatory, and the second is for teaching." [Narrated by Al-Tahawi, who said: "We follow the opinion of Ibn Abbas in this matter." Al-Tirmidhi said: "Some scholars considered it to have a prostration, and this is the opinion of Sufyan Al-Thawri, Malik, and the people of Kufa." Muhammad (Ibn al-Hasan) said: "Ibn Abbas did not consider Surah Al-Hajj to have more than one prostration, the first one, and we follow this opinion."
