كتاب القرآنBook: On the Explanation of the Quran
بَابُ مَا جَاءَ فِي سُجُودِ الْقُرْآنِWhat is reported about prostration in the Qur'an
Hadith 484B5
وَسُئِلَ عَنِ امْرَأَةٍ قَرَأَتْ سَجْدَةً وَرَجُلٌ مَعَهَا يَسْمَعُ أَعَلَيْهِ أَنْ يَسْجُدَ مَعَهَا ، قَالَ مَالِك : لَيْسَ عَلَيْهِ أَنْ يَسْجُدَ مَعَهَا إِنَّمَا تَجِبُ السَّجْدَةُ عَلَى الْقَوْمِ يَكُونُونَ مَعَ الرَّجُلِ فَيَأْتَمُّونَ بِهِ ، فَيَقْرَأُ السَّجْدَةَ فَيَسْجُدُونَ مَعَهُ ، وَلَيْسَ عَلَى مَنْ سَمِعَ سَجْدَةً مِنْ إِنْسَانٍ يَقْرَؤُهَا لَيْسَ لَهُ بِإِمَامٍ أَنْ يَسْجُدَ تِلْكَ السَّجْدَةَ
Imam Malik, may Allah have mercy on him, was asked: If a woman recites a verse of prostration and a man hears her, should that man also perform prostration along with the woman? He replied: No, rather prostration becomes obligatory on the listener only when he is a follower (muqtadi) of the one who is reciting the verse of prostration. And it is not the case that whoever hears the verse of prostration from someone and is not a follower of the reciter should perform prostration.
