Is it Sunnah to Say Takbeer When Doing Sujoodut-Tilaawah?


Shaykh ‘Aadil Ibn Yoosuf al-‘Azzaazee said: 

“Saying takbeer when doing Sujoodus-Tilaawah (prostration of recitation) is not legislated just as it is not legislated to say tasleem. This is because there is no confirmed proof to support it. However, is it allowed to say takbeer in prayer [when going down and coming up] when one comes to a verse in which there is a sajdah (prostration)?

There is no explicit authentic hadeeth that is established regarding this issue. However, Shaykh Ibn al-‘Uthaymeen (may Allaah have mercy on him) opined that it is legislated [to say the takbeer] because of the general meaning of the hadeeth that states that the Messenger of Allaah (sallallaahu alayhi wasallam) used to say takbeer every time he moved up or down in prayer.
