1252. It was narrated from 'Abdullâh bin Ja'far that the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ said: "Whoever has doubt during his prayer, let him prostrate twice." (One of the narrators) Hajjâj said: "After he has said the Taslîm." (Another of them) Rawh said: "While he is sitting." (Hasan)

Arabic text

1251 - أَخْبَرَنَا هَارُونُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا حَجَّاجٌ، وَرَوْحٌ هُوَ ابْنُ عُبَادَةَ، عَنْ ابْنِ جُرَيْجٍ، قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنِي عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مُسَافِعٍ، أَنَّ مُصْعَبَ بْنَ شَيْبَةَ أَخْبَرَهُ، عَنْ عُقْبَةَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ الْحَارِثِ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ جَعْفَرٍ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: «مَنْ شَكَّ فِي صَلَاتِهِ فَلْيَسْجُدْ سَجْدَتَيْنِ»، قَالَ حَجَّاجٌ: بَعْدَ مَا يُسَلِّمُ، وَقَالَ رَوْحٌ: وَهُوَ جَالِسٌ

Commentary

From Hadîth No. 1246 through to Hadîth No. 1252, the narrations are brief. In order to rightly understand them, one should resort to the preceding detailed narrations. That means, if one encounters doubt, one should complete one's prayer only after having striven to know the right thing, or after having fully relied upon one's reason. Then, after the final greeting, he should perform two prostrations of forgetfulness, and then close the prayer with final Salâm. In the case of surplus, performance of merely two prostrations will be sufficient.
