00:00The question arises, is there a difference between men and women in prostration?

00:04Sayyidina Anas says that the Prophet ﷺ said,

00:07Keep your limbs equal in prostration,

00:10whoever among you,

00:12that is, whoever among you,

00:14whether a man or a woman,

00:15should not spread his arms like a dog.

00:17How does a dog spread his arms?

00:19He puts his arms on the ground like this.

00:21Like in prostration,

00:22if the arms are put on the ground like this,

00:24Allah's Messenger has forbidden this.

00:26When we prostrate,

00:28people put their arms like this,

00:29that prostration is like this for women.

00:31Allah's Messenger has not taught this method invented by himself.

00:37Sayyidina Anas bin Malik narrates from the Prophet ﷺ that

00:41the Prophet ﷺ said,

00:42Keep your limbs equal in prostration,

00:43whoever among you,

00:44that is, whoever among you,

00:45whether a man or a woman,

00:46should not spread his arms like a dog.

00:49Whoever among you,

00:51should not spread his arms on the ground.

00:54So how are the arms spread while prostrating?

00:57You can imagine the prostration.

01:00Then how did the Prophet ﷺ prostrate?

01:02When you yourself acquire first-hand knowledge,

01:06when you read the hadith of Allah's Messenger ﷺ,

01:09then no one's disagreement will affect you.

01:12Because Allah has made our Prophet ﷺ an example for us.

01:17May Allah enable us to follow him.

01:20Sayyidina Abdullah bin Malik narrates that

01:23when the Prophet ﷺ used to pray,

01:25he used to keep his arms equal in prostration.

01:28To the extent that the whiteness of his limbs was visible.

01:32By arms, I mean the arms around his shoulders.

01:35When he used to go in prostration,

01:37this part was so open that it could be seen up to his limbs.

01:42So the Prophet ﷺ used to spread his arms and prostrate.

01:46When the Prophet ﷺ used to prostrate,

01:48even if a baby goat wanted to pass under his arms,

01:51it would pass.

01:52Even if a baby goat wanted to pass under his arms,

01:55it would pass.

01:56Hazrat Abbas bin Abdul Muttalib narrates that

01:59when the Prophet ﷺ used to prostrate,

02:02he used to spread his arms and prostrate.

02:04His face, his arms, his knees and his legs.

02:07It is narrated in Abu Dawood's 891.

02:10Hazrat Ibn Umar narrates that

02:13he used to spread his arms as if his face was in prostration.

02:16His arms were on the ground.

02:18He used to spread his arms.

02:20On which side are the fingers of the hands?

02:22On the side of the Qibla.

02:24Then look at the fingers of the feet.

02:26On which side are the fingers of the feet?

02:28On the side of the Qibla.

02:29But when the feet are pulled to one side,

02:32on which side are they?

02:35Then it is not on the side of the Qibla.

02:37Then it is not prostration.
