📌Remember that the mats are made from a fiber which is neither eaten nor worn and it is quite in order to do sajdah on them, especially if your forehead rests upon an uncolored portion. Likewise, you may do sajdah on any stone (not precious stones); so you can do sajdah on real (but not on artificial) marble. Cement and lime are made from burnt stones; therefore a cemented floor or floor covered with lime cannot be used for sajdah .
Likewise, sajdah is not allowed on earthenware, after it has been treated by fire. To recite dhikr of sajdah , i.e. Subhanallah (three times) or Subhana Rabbiyal A’ala wa bihamdih (Glory and Praise be to my Lord Cherisher, the High) (once). To remain motionless-during Dhikr of sajdah . Not to raise any of the seven parts (mentioned in No.2) till the recitation of dhikr is over. To raise the head first and sit down after first (and even second) sajdah .
📌Important Reminder "It is haraam in Islamic shari’ah to do sajdah to anyone except Allah. Some ignorant people put their forehead in front of the graves of Imams (A.S.). If they have a clear intention to do sajdah of thanks ( sajdah al-shukr ) for Allah, it is alright. Otherwise, it is haraam ." Previous…
