Altering one's sitting posture after sajdah to avoid urine drops coming out
Q: I have a problem that when I go to sajdah, some drops of urine come out. So when I do sajdah, I do my best to prevent from this happening. For this I often do sajdah with my feets not touching each other in sajdah.
Also when I rise from one sajdah I do not sit properly and then again go to the next sajdah.
