Translation text: Which is More Virtuous in Salah, Standing or Prostration? - Sheikh Ibn 'Uthaymīn وذكر القيام والسجود؛ لأن القيام في الصلاة أشرف من السجود بذكره، He mentioned standing and prostration, because standing in Prayer is more virtuous than prostration in terms of its Dhikr. والسجود أفضل من القيام بهيئته. And prostration is more virtuous than standing in terms of its physical form. كيف كان القيام أفضل من السجود بذكره؟ How is standing more virtuous than prostration in terms of its Dhikr? لأنّ الذكر المشروع في القيام هو قراءة القرآن، والقرآن افضل الكلام. It's because the legislated Dhikr while standing is the recitation of the Qur'ān, and the Qur'ān is the best of speech. أما السجود فهو أشرف من القيام بهيئته؛ As for prostration, it is more virtuous than standing in terms of its physical form. لأن الإنسان الساجد أقرب ما يكون من ربه عز وجل، That's because the one in prostration, is the closest he can be to his Rabb,the Almighty, كما ثبت ذلك عن النبي ﷺ أنه قال: ((أقرب ما يكون العبد من ربه وهو ساجد)) as established by the Prophet ﷺ that he said: "The 'Abd (worshipper) is closest to his Rabb while he is prostrating." ولهذا أمرنا أن نكثر من الدعاء في السجود. Hence, he ﷺ has commanded us to increase our supplications whilst in prostration. ----------------------------------------------------- Rabbaniyeen ربانيين 🔴اليوتيوب🔴👇 https://www.youtube.com/@rabbaniyeen 🔴الانستجرام🔴👇 https://www.instagram.com/rabbaniyeen/ 🔴التيليغرام🔴👇 https://t.me/Rabbaniyeen
