Post Reply: What are the Significances of Sajdah-e-Tilawat

<blockquote><div class="quotetitle">Quote from Guest on December 24, 2022, 1:24 pm</div>The Prophet  explained the high significance of Sajdah-e-Tilawat in the following way:

&nbsp;

“Once, a person prostrates himself after reading a verse requiring the performance of sajdah, the shaitan starts crying and wailing in a corner, saying: ‘Alas! The children of Adam were enjoined to perform sajdah and they carried it out, and become entitled to enter Paradise, but I refused to do so and was condemned to Hell.’” (Muslim and Ibn Majah)

When reciting or listening to the Qur’an and on reaching any of these Aayaat it is Wajib to perform a single Sajdah. Although it is preferred to do this immediately, one can also perform them together or at a later time but as soon as possible.

To understand better why we perform Sajdah-e-Tilawat (prostration) after reading verses from the Quran, lets take a look at some translations from the Holy Quran of such verses:

“O ye who believe! bow down, prostrate yourselves, and adore your Lord; and do good; that ye may prosper.”

“They fall down on their faces in tears, and it increases their (earnest) humility.”

“God!- there is no god but He!- Lord of the Throne Supreme!”

“Nay, heed him not: But bow down in adoration, and bring thyself the closer (to Allah)!”</blockquote><br>
