   ٭While the recitation of the complete verse is necessary for Sajdah-e-Tilawat to become Wajib, according to some scholars of the later age, it will become Wajib even if just the root-word of Sajdah (سجدہ) along with its preceding or succeeding word is recited; therefore, it is safer to perform Sajdah-e-Tilawat in both cases. (Fatawa Razawiyyah, vol. 8, pp. 229-233)

   ٭In case of reciting a verse of Sajdah when not offering Salah, although it is not Wajib to perform immediate Sajdah, delaying the Sajdah is Makruh Tanzeehi provided the reciter has Wudu. (Durr-e-Mukhtar, vol. 2, pp. 703)

   ٭In case of reciting a verse of Sajdah in Salah, it is Wajib to perform Sajdah instantly. If the Musalli delayed the Sajdah (i.e. if she recited more than three Ayahs) she would be a sinner, and as long as she is in Salah or has not done any such act contrary to Salah after the Salam, she should perform Sajdah-e-Tilawat and then Sajdah-e-Sahw subsequently. (Durr-e-Mukhtar, Rad-dul-Muhtar, vol. 2, pp. 704)

   ٭Similarly, Sajdah-e-Tilawat will become Wajib in case of listening to a verse of Sajdah even from a disbeliever or a minor.

   ٭Method of Sajdah-e-Tilawat: Go down for Sajdah uttering اَللّٰهُ اَکْبَر from standing position and utter سُبْحٰنَ رَبِّیَ الْاَعْلٰی (in Sajdah) at least thrice. Then, stand up uttering اَللّٰهُ اَکْبَر. Uttering اَللّٰهُ اَکْبَر while going down for Sajdah as well as standing from Sajdah is a Sunnah whereas both Qiyams, i.e. going down for Sajdah from standing position and standing from Sajdah are Mustahab. (Bahar-e-Shari’at, vol. 1, pp. 731)

Sajdah-e-Tilawat does not require raising hands at the time of uttering اَللّٰهُ اَکْبَر. Similarly, neither Tashahhud is recited nor Salam is performed for Sajdah-e-Tilawat. (Tanveer-ul-Absaar, vol. 2, pp. 700)

   ٭Furthermore, having become adult, if someone has not yet performed Sajdahs despite hearing verses of Sajdah, she has to make a probable calculation on safer side as to how many Sajdahs she may not have performed to date and then perform Sajdahs accordingly in the state of Wudu.
