With the name of Allah, the Impartial, the Compassionate.

(32) Assajada

In this Surah, it is mentioned about the prostration of recitation in verse 15. From this verse, this Surah is named "Assajada". It contains 30 verses that Messenger Muhammad recited every night and in every Friday morning prayer. It is revealed in the early period of middle age during Messenger’s Makkah life. Before bringing life to the dead with the Lord’s permission, Jesus was performing prolonged prayer after reciting this Surah and Surah Mulk. This Surah teaches that the Lord’s Book is not forged by the illiterate Messenger but is revealed from the Lord of the Universe. It is ordered to remind mankind in their heart's language that they have no protectors or intercessors besides Lord Allah. This Surah teaches that the Lord has created mankind from a single soul and their bodies are made from the mingled sperm and ovum. The spirit containing life and the soul of everyone is from the Lord, and the Lord has given everyone the faculties of hearing, sight, and intelligence to be grateful. This Surah teaches that the Lord has entrusted an Angel to take off the spirit from everybody, and also that everyone will be returned to the Lord. The Lord is consoling the Messenger and the believers, talking about the pathetic condition of the Mujrims (the hypocrites and their blind followers) wailing in the Hereafter. This Surah warns that from each 1000, only one will return to Paradise whereas 999 will enter Hell. For the believers who are involved in good deeds, the glad news of Paradise as a reward is informed, while for the transgressors, it will be told ‘You taste the punishment of Fire for you had been rejecting It in the worldly life’. This Surah warns that the Impartial Lord will take revenge for the wrongdoing of Mujrims. It also teaches that when the people are believers and have confirmed belief with the Lord’s verses, the Lord will appoint leaders to guide them into the straight path with the Command Adhikr. It also warns that on the day when the believers get the victory, the disbelievers will not benefit from their belief at that time, nor will they be given any respite. This Surah concludes by commanding the Messenger and the believers to neglect the disbelievers and not to be in a hurry for the end of the world; and that everything will happen at the appointed time.
