Is the one who doesn`t offer prostration of Quranic recital considered sinful ?

Answered as per Shafi'i Fiqh by Darul Iftaa Jordan
Is the one who doesn`t offer prostration of Quranic recital considered sinful ?

Answer:
Prostration of Quranic recital is a Sunnah due on whosoever recites a verse that contains a prostration. It is also a Sunnah for the reader and the listener. However, none of them is considered sinful for not offering it, but they deprive themselves from a great reward. It is obligatory to offer the prostration of Quranic recital in congregational prayer following the lead of the Imam.
