Sajdah: The Pinnacle of Worship
Sajdah (prostration) is the highlight of the Muslim prayer, where the forehead, nose, palms, knees, and toes touch the ground. It is the moment of greatest proximity to Allah, signifying total surrender and ultimate devotion.
Proximity to Allah in Sajdah
The Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) said that the servant is closest to his Lord when he is in prostration. Muslims say "Subhana Rabbiyal A'la" (Glory be to my Lord, the Most High) during Sajdah. It is a powerful act that humbles the ego and connects the heart to the Creator.
