THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaumul Ahad, 13th Jumaadal Aakhir. (Sunday, 15th of January 2022).

THE FORGETFULNESS PROSTRATION (SUJUUD ASSAHW) POPULARLY TERM AS QABLI AND BAADI COMPENSATION IN SALAAT. BismilLah. 

As human beings, we are by nature subject to mistakes and errors. If a person fails to perform any of the pillars of the prayer and/or necessary duties, that person is required to rectify the error by making two additional prostrations at the end of the prayer known as “SUJJUD

ALSAHW”. i.e. forgetfulness prostration. But where a pillar(s) is omitted, a repetition of the missed pillar(s) is necessary.

The four major types of errors due to forgetfulness are as follows:

1. If an addition is made to the prayer e.g. praying Dhuhr with 5 rakaa instead of 4, then the two additional prostrations for forgetfulness should be performed after saying “Assalaamu Alaikum”(TASLEEM).

2. If a prayer is performed with a lesser number of rakaa than is required, e.g. to pray 3 rakaa for Dhuhr instead of 4. Then, the two additional prostrations for forgetfulness should

be performed before proclaiming “TASLEEM” but as soon as you notice you've missed a full rakaat you must stand up to add that rakaat before the compensation. 

3. If both an addition and omission is made in the course of the prayer, the forgetfulness prostration can be done before declaring the “TASLEEM”.

4. If a person is in doubt whether omission or addition is made to his prayer, he should consider it a deduction as a precautionary measure and perform Sujuud Assahw - the

additional prostration for forgetfulness before affirming“TASLEEM”.

So basically Qabli is applied when you omit something in salaat and the two sajda is performed before Tasleem. Baadi is applied after Tasleem when you add something not required even if you remember after Tasleem and you are still seated then just add 2 sajda then Tashahhud then Tasleem. You can ask any questions if you don't understand anything please.

May ALLAH keep guiding us all and protect us from any satanic influences. Aameen.
