Question:
Assalamualaikum
How does one perform sajda sahwa?
بِسْمِ اللهِ الرَّحْمنِ الرَّحِيْم
In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.
Answer:
Sajdah Sahw is performed in the following manner:
In the last rakah of salah the person should recite At-Tahiyyat only and thereafter make salam towards the right only, then he should make two sajdahs. After that, he should recite At-Tahiyyat again and thereafter recite the durud, dua and salam to both sides completing his salah. [1]
And Allah SWT alone knows best.
