Surah As Sajdah

Surah As-Sajda begins by affirming that the Quran is not a fabricated tale, but a revelation from the Lord of the worlds. It explains how Allah created everything with purpose, how humans are raised from clay, and how the soul is developed.
The Surah then shifts to describe the Day of Judgment, where the disbelievers will be humbled, and the righteous will be rewarded. A key verse commands prostration (sajda), symbolizing the humility and obedience of true believers.
