Assalam alaikum,
Today when my father asked me the total count of Sajdahs in the Quran. I had no answer to it. And that was when I thought of finding this on net and finally sharing it on my blog.
1. There are fourteen places of sajdah-e-tilaawat in the Quran. Wherever the word "sajdah" appears on the margin of the Quran, then on reciting that verse, sajdah becomes wajib. This sajdah is known as sajdah-e-tilaawat.
2. The method of making sajdah-e-tilaawat is as follows: the person should say Allahu Akbar and go into sajdah. When saying Allahu Akbar the hands should not be raised. While in sajdah, he should say: Sub-hana Rabbi-al Aala, at least three times. Thereafter, he should say Allahu Akbar and raise his head. The sajdah-e-tilaawat is now complete.
3. It is preferable to stand up, say Allahu Akbar and go into sajdah. And thereafter to say Allahu Akbar and stand up from the sajdah. It is also permissible to go into sajdah and come up from it while in the sitting position without standing up at all.
4. Sajdah-e-tilaawat becomes wajib on the person who recites a verse of sajdah and also on the person who hears it being recited. This is irrespective of whether the person had sat down with the intention of listening to the Quran, whether he was preoccupied with some work, or whether he heard it without intending to listen to it. It is therefore better to recite the verse of sajdah softly so that sajdah-e-tilaawat does not become wajib on anyone else.
5. Those factors that are a prerequisite for salaat are also prerequisites for sajdah-e-tilaawat. That is, the person must be in a state of wudu, the place must be clean, the body and clothing must be pure, sajdah must be made in the direction of the qiblah, etc.
6. Sajdah-e-tilaawat should be made in the same way as sajdah is made in salaat. Some people make their sajdah on the Quran itself. Sajdah in this manner is not valid and one is not absolved from this wajib.
7. If a person does not have wudu at that time, he could make wudu at a later stage and then make the sajdah. It is not necessary to make sajdah immediately. However, it is better to make it immediately because it is possible that the person might forget later.
8. If a person has several sajdah-e-tilaawats to make and has not made them till now, he should make them now. He should make them at some time or the other of his life. If he does not do so he will be sinning.
9. If a woman hears a verse of sajdah while she is in her haid or nifaas, sajdah-e-tilaawat is not wajib on her. But if she hears it when she is in a state when ghusl was wajib on her, it will be wajib on her to make sajdah-e-tilaawat after having a bath.
10. If a person hears the verse while he is very ill and does not have the strength to make sajdah, he should make sajdah-e-tilaawat just as he makes the sajdah of salaat through gestures.
11. If a person recites a verse of sajdah while he is in salaat, then upon reciting the verse he should immediately go into sajdah, thereafter continue with the rest of the Surah, and then go into ruku. If a person does not go immediately into sajdah, but goes into sajdah after reciting two or three more verses, this sajdah will still be proper. And if he recites several more verses and then goes into sajdah, the sajdah will be proper but he will be sinning.
