Praise be to Allaah. We have sooo much to be thankful for, no matter what troubles we face we will be in a much better situation than others. Alhamdulilah Sajdat al-Shukr is prescribed for anything that makes one happy, whether it is attaining some benefit or warding off some harm. The evidence (daleel) for this is to be found in the Ahaadeeth and Aathaar (reports). Among the Ahaadeeth is the Hadeeth of Abu Bakrah (may Allaah be pleased with him), who said that when the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) heard any news that made him glad, he would fall down prostrating to Allaah, may He be exalted. (Reported by the five except al-Nisaa’i; al-Tirmidhi said, it is hasan ghareeb). According to the version narrated by Ahmad: he saw the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him), when news reached him that his troops had prevailed over their enemy, he was lying with his head in ‘Aa’ishah’s lap, then he got up and fell in prostration. (Reported by Ahmad, 5/45; al-Haakim, 4/291). I usually do the Sajda at least once a day after a Salah. Praise be to Allaah. There is no specific du’aa’ narrated in the ahaadeeth for sujood al-shukr, hence the scholars said that what is to be said in sujood al-shukr is the same tasbeeh and du’aa’ as are said when prostrating in prayer. So one should say Subhaana Rabbiy al-A’laa (Glory be to my Lord Most High 3 times), and Then he should make du’aa’ as he likes.
