577. Ibn ‘Abbās narrated: “I saw the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ prostrating for (Sūrat) Ṣād.” Ibn ‘Abbās said: “It is not one of the resolute prostrations.”[1] (Ṣaḥīḥ)
Abū 'Eisā said: This Hadīth is Hasan Ṣaḥīḥ.
The people of knowledge among the Companions of the Prophet ﷺ and others differed over this. Some of the people of knowledge held the view that there was a prostration in it, this is the view of Sufyān (Ath-Thawrī), Ibn Al-Mubārak, Ash-Shāfi'ī, Aḥmad, and Ishāq. Some of them said that it is only about a Prophet repenting, and they did not see that there was a prostration in it.[1]

[1] Its meaning is the same as what was reported from ‘Umar (in no. 566), may Allāh be pleased with him, before it.
Commentary
The status of some Sujūd (prostrations) is stressed upon while the others are unstressed. But one should try one's best to make Sujūd at each place to achieve reward and righteousness following the footsteps of the Messenger ﷺ.
