What should one do if he reads an additional chapter or verses after al-Fatiha in the third or fourth rak’ah of a fard prayer? Is sajdah as-sahw necessary?

The Answer

Dear Brother / Sister,

An additional chapter or verses after al-Fatiha is not read in the third or fourth rak’ah of a fard prayer. However, sajdah as-sahw is not necessary for a person who reads it. (Büyük İslam İlmihali, Namazla ilgili bölüm madde: 330; Prof. Dr. Wahba Zuhayli, İslam Fıkhı Ansiklopedisi, II/40)
