As-Sajdah (Surah 32)

Introduction

This Meccan sûrah, which takes its name from the prostrations of the believers in worship mentioned in verse 15, makes it clear that the Quran is a divine revelation and that Almighty Allah is the sole Creator, most capable of resurrection. Similar to the previous sûrah, a reference is made to the qualities of the believers and the disbelievers and the reward awaiting each. Both the end of this sûrah and the beginning of the next urge the Prophet (ﷺ) to turn away from the deniers and not yield to them. In the Name of Allah—the Most Compassionate, Most Merciful
