Dua in sujood

This is in keeping the supplication simple and comprehensive.

This is because supplication is worship; hence, a servant increases in worship of Allah, the Mighty and Sublime, each time he repeats the supplication.

While repeating it, he recalls his sins, the hidden and the open, the insignificant and the pronounced.

This is the wisdom behind the Prophet going into details after making a broad statement.

Therefore, it is good for someone to adhere to these supplications reported from the Messenger of Allah SAW because they are the most comprehensive and most beneficial of supplications.

Sujood Meaning

Sujood or sajda is the act of low bowing or prostration before Allah Subhanahu Wata’ala facing the qiblah (direction of the Kaaba at Mecca).

It is frequently done in standardized prayers (known as salah in Arabic).

Sujood Position

The position involves kneeling and bending (bowing) till the forehead, nose, palms, knees, and toes touches the ground, then maintaining in that position until one achieves a relaxed condition while worshipping and glorifying Allah.

One of the basic pillars of daily prayers in Islam is sujud (prostration).

A sajdah is a single act of sujud.

Sujud is performed several times during each prayer, depending on the number of raka’at.

Two sajadat are performed for every raka’ah, and prayer’s raka’as must be between two and four raka’at.

Additional supererogatory raka’at are frequently performed as sunnah muakkadah, or emulation of Prophet Muhammad’s (May peace be upon him) example as represented in the sound hadith.

A raka’ah is a unit set of actions that must be completed during a prayer.

Rule of direction of the sujud

Sujud is only made to God. Muslims face the Kaaba in Mecca, Saudi Arabia, during prayer, but direct their sujud to God rather than the Kaaba.

Because it is God’s order in the Qur’an, the Kaaba is merely an uniform direction that Muslims face.

Unless it is forced upon them, any person claiming to be a Muslim who makes a sujud to anything/deity/person other than God is deemed a disbeliever.

Thus, your supplications are liable to be accepted in Sujood.

That is, your requests are likely to be granted because a servant is closest to his Lord when he is in prostration.

Can You Recite Quran In Sujood?

It is not permissible for anyone to recite the Qur’an in bowing position or prostration.

However, one may employ a Quranic supplication in this position.

For example, one may say:

Our Lord! Forgive us our sins and excesses in our affairs and make our feet firm and give us victory over the disbelievers”

Although it is forbidden to recite the Qur’an.

It is unlawful for one to recite the Qur’an during the bowing or prostration position.

The bowing position is meant for glorification; you should glorify your Lord by reciting the above dhizkr and duas.

May Allah aid us and you towards what He loves and pleases Him.
