Exegesis of the saying of Allah the Exalted: "And to Allah prostrates all who are in the heavens"
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, is it permissible to interpret the statement of Allah[Ar-Ra'd 13:15], the interpretation being prostration; because prostration is submission?
Answer:
Everything prostrates in the manner that suits it, so our prostration is not the prostration of the sun and the moon. Everything prostrates in a prostration befitting it, and we do not know its manner. We do not say it is submission; no, we do not say that. We say it prostrates as Allah has informed us, but the prostration of each thing is suited to it. Yes.
