Aslam u alaikum I have memory issues I was praying zuhr I did first sajda prostration and sat in middle and said allahummaghfirli. Then I did second sajda and after getting up I forgot if I had done first sajda or not so I decided to do one more sujood as I am in sitting position i said allahummaghfirli again and I'm about to do 3rd sujood. After saying allahummaghfirli I remembered I've already said allahummaghfirli already that means I have done 2 sujood. So now I'm clear my 2 sujood are done but now I'm stuck I don't know if I should get up or continue the 3rd sujood so I did third sujood and did sajda sahw sujood of forgetfulness at the end of salah Is my prayer valid.



بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم

الجواب حامداومصليا

An additional Sajdah will require a Sajdah Sahwah. So in your case as you did Sajdah Sahwa your Salah is valid.

Also, in the case If you have done the second Sajdah and you delayed in standing up for next Rakat for the limit of three Subhanallah then Sajdah Sahwah will be necessary otherwise it would not.

سهوا بتقديم أو تأخير أو زيادة أو نقص لكل روينا

وجب عليه سجود السهو إذا شغله التفكر عن أداء واجب بقدر ركن…..يجب السهو وإلا فلا كذا في الشرح ولم يبينوا قدر الركن وعلي قياس ما تقدم ان يعتبر الركن مع سنته وهو مقدر بثلاث تسبيحات
