Sujūd (سجود, السُّجُودِ)

Bowing, Kneeling down (in Salat)

وَإِذْ جَعَلْنَا الْبَيْتَ مَثَابَةً لِلنَّاسِ وَأَمْنًا وَاتَّخِذُوا مِنْ مَقَامِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ مُصَلًّى ۖ وَعَهِدْنَا إِلَىٰ إِبْرَاهِيمَ وَإِسْمَاعِيلَ أَنْ طَهِّرَا بَيْتِيَ لِلطَّائِفِينَ وَالْعَاكِفِينَ وَالرُّكَّعِ السُّجُودِ {125}

And when We Made the House (Kabah) as a resort for the people and a security, and Take for yourselves a place for Salat at the standing-place of Ibrahim. And We Covenanted with Ibrahim and Ismail: “Purify My House for performers of the Tawaaf, and the Itikaf, and the Rukus and ‘السُّجُودِ’ the Sajdahs!” [2:125]

عن الحلبي، عن أبي عبد الله (عليه السلام)، قال: سألته عن رجل طاف بالبيت طواف الفريضة، في حج كان أو عمرة، و جهل أن يصلي ركعتين عند مقام إبراهيم (عليه السلام). قال: «يصليها و لو بعد أيام، لأن الله يقول: وَ اتَّخِذُوا مِنْ مَقامِ إِبْراهِيمَ مُصَلًّى

From Al Halby,

(It has been narrated) from Abu Abdullah-asws, said, ‘I asked him-asws about a man who performed Tawaaf the House, the Obligatory Tawaaf during Hajj or Umra, and was ignorant of the fact that he should Pray two Cycles at the standing place of Ibrahim-as’. The Imam-asws said: ‘He should Pray these two Cycles even if it is after (some) days, because Allah-azwj is Saying and Take for yourselves a place for Salat at the standing-place of Ibrahim [2:125]’’.[1]
