Q: It is stated in some hanafi fiqh books that it is wajib to sit up straight between the two sajdas (Jalsa). I keep having this problem where I keep thinking that I haven’t sat up exactly straight between the two sajdahs and think I’ve missed a wajib and would perform sajda sahw. Is it necessary that I have to sit up exactly straight between the two sajdas or is there some leniency that for this sitting up straight is approximate and not exact?
A: Don’t pay attention to these doubts.
And Allah Ta’ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
