بَابُ النَّهْيِ عَنِ الْقِرَاءَةِ فِي الرُّكُوعِ وَالسُّجُودِ
Chapter on the Prohibition of Reciting During Bowing and Prostration
Hadith 1698
عَنْ عَلِيٍّ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ: نَهَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنْ يَقْرَأَ الرَّجُلُ وَهُوَ رَاكِعٌ أَوْ سَاجِدٌ
Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) says: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) forbade that a person recite (Qur'an) while in bowing (ruku') or prostration (sajdah).
Hadith 1699
عَنِ النُّعْمَانِ بْنِ سَعْدٍ عَنْ عَلِيٍّ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ: سَأَلَهُ رَجُلٌ: أَأَقْرَأُ فِي الرُّكُوعِ وَالسُّجُودِ؟ فَقَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ: ((إِنِّي نُهِيتُ أَنْ أَقْرَأَ فِي الرُّكُوعِ وَالسُّجُودِ، فَإِذَا رَكَعْتُمْ فَعَظِّمُوا اللَّهَ، وَإِذَا سَجَدْتُمْ فَاجْتَهِدُوا فِي الْمَسْأَلَةِ فَقَمِنٌ أَنْ يُسْتَجَابَ لَكُمْ))
Aman bin Saad says that a man asked Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him): "Can I recite (Qur'an) in bowing and prostration?" He replied: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: I have been forbidden from reciting (Qur'an) in bowing and prostration. When you bow, then glorify the greatness of Allah, and when you prostrate, then strive to supplicate, for it is more likely that it will be accepted for you.
Hadith 1700
عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ: ((أَلَا إِنِّي نُهِيتُ أَنْ أَقْرَأَ رَاكِعًا أَوْ سَاجِدًا، فَأَمَّا الرُّكُوعُ فَعَظِّمُوا فِيهِ الرَّبَّ، وَأَمَّا السُّجُودُ فَاجْتَهِدُوا فِي الدُّعَاءِ فَقَمِنٌ أَنْ يُسْتَجَابَ لَكُمْ))
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Beware! Indeed, I have been forbidden from reciting (Qur'an) during bowing and prostration, therefore, in bowing, glorify your Lord, the Exalted, and in prostration, strive in supplication, for it is most likely that it will be accepted for you.
