[Al-Quran 50:6-8] Have they not looked at the heaven above them - how We structured it and adorned it and how it has no rifts? And the earth - We spread it out and cast therein firmly set mountains and made grow therein [something] of every beautiful kind, Giving insight and a reminder for every servant who turns [to Allah].

Prostrate in Submission

Adam, Joseph, Earth 


Surah Yusuf (Joseph) 12:1-7


الٓرٰ​ تِلۡكَ اٰيٰتُ الۡكِتٰبِ الۡمُبِيۡن‏ ١ اِنَّاۤ اَنۡزَلۡنٰهُ قُرۡءٰنًا عَرَبِيًّا لَّعَلَّكُمۡ تَعۡقِلُوۡنَ‏ ٢ نَحۡنُ نَقُصُّ عَلَيۡكَ اَحۡسَنَ الۡقَصَصِ بِمَاۤ اَوۡحَيۡنَاۤ اِلَيۡكَ هٰذَا الۡقُرۡاٰنَ ​ۖ  وَاِنۡ كُنۡتَ مِنۡ قَبۡلِهٖ لَمِنَ الۡغٰفِلِيۡنَ‏ ٣ اِذۡ قَالَ يُوۡسُفُ لِاَبِيۡهِ يٰۤاَبَتِ اِنِّىۡ رَاَيۡتُ اَحَدَ عَشَرَ كَوۡكَبًا وَّالشَّمۡسَ وَالۡقَمَرَ رَاَيۡتُهُمۡ لِىۡ سٰجِدِيۡنَ‏ ٤ قَالَ يٰبُنَىَّ لَا تَقۡصُصۡ رُءۡيَاكَ عَلٰٓى اِخۡوَتِكَ فَيَكِيۡدُوۡا لَـكَ كَيۡدًا ؕ اِنَّ الشَّيۡطٰنَ لِلۡاِنۡسَانِ عَدُوٌّ مُّبِيۡنٌ‏ ٥ وَكَذٰلِكَ يَجۡتَبِيۡكَ رَبُّكَ وَيُعَلِّمُكَ مِنۡ تَاۡوِيۡلِ الۡاَحَادِيۡثِ وَيُتِمُّ نِعۡمَتَهٗ عَلَيۡكَ وَعَلٰٓى اٰلِ يَعۡقُوۡبَ كَمَاۤ اَتَمَّهَا عَلٰٓى اَبَوَيۡكَ مِنۡ قَبۡلُ اِبۡرٰهِيۡمَ وَاِسۡحٰقَ​ ؕ اِنَّ رَبَّكَ عَلِيۡمٌ حَكِيۡمٌ‏  ٦ ۞ لَقَدۡ كَانَ فِىۡ يُوۡسُفَ وَاِخۡوَتِهٖۤ اٰيٰتٌ لِّـلسَّآٮِٕلِيۡنَ‏ ٧


Alif, Lām, Rā. These are the verses of the clear Book. Indeed, We have sent it down as an Arabic Qur’ān that you might understand. We relate to you, [O Muḥammad], the best of stories in what We have revealed to you of this Qur’ān although you were, before it, among the unaware. [Of these stories mention] when Joseph said to his father, "O my father, indeed I have seen [in a dream] eleven stars and the sun and the moon; I saw them prostrating to me." He said, "O my son, do not relate your vision to your brothers or they will contrive against you a plan. Indeed Satan, to man, is a manifest enemy. And thus will your Lord choose you and teach you the interpretation of narratives [i.e., events or dreams] and complete His favor upon you and upon the family of Jacob, as He completed it upon your fathers before, Abraham and Isaac. Indeed, your Lord is Knowing and Wise." Certainly were there in Joseph and his brothers signs for those who ask, [such as]

Joseph (Yusuf) is an individual, and so are his parents, and brothers, each one an individual person. Joseph sees a dream that the objects in the sky (eleven planets/stars, sun, moon) are prostrating to Him. This dream is realised years later when indeed Joseph is in power in the Egypt (Misr), and his parents and brothers come to him. 

In Surah alHajj, we read: 

Surah alHajj (The Pilgrimage) 22:65-68


 اَلَمۡ تَرَ اَنَّ اللّٰهَ سَخَّرَ لَـكُمۡ مَّا فِى الۡاَرۡضِ وَالۡـفُلۡكَ تَجۡرِىۡ فِى الۡبَحۡرِ بِاَمۡرِهٖ ؕ وَيُمۡسِكُ السَّمَآءَ اَنۡ تَقَعَ عَلَى الۡاَرۡضِ اِلَّا بِاِذۡنِهٖ ؕ اِنَّ اللّٰهَ بِالنَّاسِ لَرَءُوۡفٌ رَّحِيۡمٌ‏ ٦٥ وَهُوَ الَّذِىۡۤ اَحۡيَاكُمۡ ثُمَّ يُمِيۡتُكُمۡ ثُمَّ يُحۡيِيۡكُمۡ​ ؕ اِنَّ الۡاِنۡسَانَ لَـكَفُوۡرٌ‏ ٦٦ لِّـكُلِّ اُمَّةٍ جَعَلۡنَا مَنۡسَكًا هُمۡ نَاسِكُوۡهُ​ فَلَا يُنَازِعُنَّكَ فِى الۡاَمۡرِ​ وَادۡعُ اِلٰى رَبِّكَ​ ؕ اِنَّكَ لَعَلٰى هُدًى مُّسۡتَقِيۡمٍ‏ ٦٧ 

Do you not see that Allāh has subjected to you whatever is on the earth and the ships which run through the sea by His command? And He restrains the sky from falling upon the earth, unless by His permission. Indeed Allāh, to the people, is Kind and Merciful. And He is the one who gave you life; then He causes you to die and then will [again] give you life. Indeed, mankind is ungrateful. For every [religious] community We have appointed rites which they perform. So, [O Muḥammad], let them [i.e., the disbelievers] not contend with you over the matter but invite [them] to your Lord. Indeed, you are upon straight guidance. And if they dispute with you, then say, "Allāh is most knowing of what you do.

کیا تم نے دیکھا نہیں کہ اللہ نے زمین کی سب چیزوں کو تمہارے لیے مسخرّ کردیا ہے اور کشتی کو جو چلتی ہے سمندر میں اس کے حکم سے اور وہ تھامے ہوئے ہے آسمان کو کہ وہ گر نہ جائے زمین پر مگر اس کے حکم سے یقیناً اللہ انسانوں کے ساتھ بہت ہی شفیق ہے بہت مہربان ہے

اور وہی ہے جس نے تمہیں زندہ کیا پھر وہ تمہیں موت دے گا پھر تمہیں زندہ کرے گا یقیناً انسان بڑا ہی نا شکرا ہے

ہم نے ہر امتّ کے لیے قربانی (اور عبادت) کے طریقے مقرر کردیے ہیں جن کی وہ پیروی کرتے ہیں تو انہیں آپ ﷺ سے اس معاملے میں جھگڑنا نہیں چاہیے اور آپ ﷺ اپنے رب کی طرف بلاتے رہیے۔ یقیناً آپ ﷺ ہدایت کے سیدھے راستے پر ہیں

اور اگر یہ لوگ آپ ﷺ سے جھگڑیں تو آپ ﷺ کہیے کہ اللہ بہتر جانتا ہے جو تم کر رہے ہو

— بیان القرآن (ڈاکٹر اسرار احمد)

[https://quran.com/22/65-68]

All angels were commanded to prostrate to Adam. All except Iblis prostrated. 

Allah has subjected everything that is on Earth for humans. 

Allah also restrains the sky from falling upon the Earth. 

The Hajj is a rite announced by Abraham (Ibrahim alahisalam) and has been going on since then. 

Among the rites is the circumambulation of the cube-shaped Kaaba. 

Pilgrims circumambulate the Kaaba seven times. 

Pilgrims circumambulate it in anti-clockwise direction. 

...

As studied in a previous post, the Micro Shape of the Earth, the smallest geometrical shape a rock breaks into is a cube. 

As we look into the sky, all humans can see sun, moon, planets, and stars move across the sky. Apparently, the sky seems to be going around the Earth. 

We know that almost all objects in the sky are moving around something. That is they are in orbit, revolving around some other object. Many objects are also spinning around their own axis. Almost all of them rotate and revolve in anti-clockwise direction. 

To quote from https://www.spaceacademy.net.au/library/notes/anticlok.htm [as on November 6, 2025]

THE ANTICLOCKWISE SOLAR SYSTEM

If we could stand outside the solar system and look down upon it from above the north pole of the Sun (or the Earth), we would see that nearly all the bodies in the solar system have motions that are anticlockwise.

The Sun rotates on its axis in an anticlockwise direction. The Earth also rotates on its axis in an anticlockwise direction. And the Earth revolves around the Sun in an anticlockwise direction. All the other major planets, and most of the minor planets (asteroids) also orbit the Sun in an anticlockwise direction. (A few comets orbit in the opposite, or clockwise, direction).

Most of the planets rotate about their own axes in an anticlockwise direction. This is called prograde rotation. Venus and Neptune are exceptions. Venus has a very slow clockwise rotation (termed retrograde), and Uranus, although it rotates every 15.5 hours, has its equator inclined at almost a right angle to its orbital plane. It is thus difficult to know whether to describe the rotation of Uranus as prograde with an equatorial inclination of 98o or retrograde with an inclination of 82o.


Allah has created humans to worship him, prostrating to Him alone. 

While we must live on Earth in this dunya, Allah has appointed the Kaaba as a Qibla. 

Allah states that the Kaaba is His House (Q2:125, Q20:26). 

Everything on Earth and in the Sky prostates to and worships Allah: 

Surah alHajj (The Pilgrimage) 22:18


أَلَمْ تَرَ أَنَّ ٱللَّهَ يَسْجُدُ لَهُۥ مَن فِى ٱلسَّمَـٰوَٰتِ وَمَن فِى ٱلْأَرْضِ وَٱلشَّمْسُ وَٱلْقَمَرُ وَٱلنُّجُومُ وَٱلْجِبَالُ وَٱلشَّجَرُ وَٱلدَّوَآبُّ وَكَثِيرٌۭ مِّنَ ٱلنَّاسِ ۖ وَكَثِيرٌ حَقَّ عَلَيْهِ ٱلْعَذَابُ ۗ وَمَن يُهِنِ ٱللَّهُ فَمَا لَهُۥ مِن مُّكْرِمٍ ۚ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ يَفْعَلُ مَا يَشَآءُ ۩ ١٨

Do you not see [i.e., know] that to Allāh prostrates whoever is in the heavens and whoever is on the earth and the sun, the moon, the stars, the mountains, the trees, the moving creatures and many of the people? But upon many the punishment has been justified. And he whom Allāh humiliates - for him there is no bestower of honor. Indeed, Allāh does what He wills.

— Saheeh International

کیا تم نے دیکھا نہیں کہ اللہ کے سامنے سر بسجود ہیں جو آسمانوں میں ہیں اور جو زمین میں ہیں اور سورج چاند ستارے پہاڑ درخت اور چوپائے اور لوگوں میں سے بھی بہت سارے اور بہت سے (انسان) ایسے ہیں جو عذاب کے مستحق ہوجاتے ہیں اور جس کو اللہ ہی رسوا کر دے پھر اسے عزت دینے والا کوئی نہیں یقیناً اللہ کرتا ہے جو چاہتا ہے

The symbolism of the Hajj is certainly something to reflect upon.

Snake Symbols

Abstract 
Snakes feature in all belief systems and are prominently visible in a number of religious, regal, medical, maritime, and other state, organisational and professional symbols, both ancient and modern, across the world. 
Snakes are jinns. Iblis was a jinn. and The Quran clearly informs us that Iblis and his progeny are the enemy, and warns us to not take them as protectors instead of Allah.  


Full Text 

وَإِذْ قُلْنَا لِلْمَلَائِكَةِ اسْجُدُوا لِآدَمَ فَسَجَدُوا إِلَّا إِبْلِيسَ كَانَ مِنَ الْجِنِّ فَفَسَقَ عَنْ أَمْرِ رَبِّهِ أَفَتَتَّخِذُونَهُ وَذُرِّيَّتَهُ أَوْلِيَاءَ مِن دُونِي وَهُمْ لَكُمْ عَدُوٌّ بِئْسَ لِلظَّالِمِينَ بَدَلًا

And when We said to the Angels, "Prostrate to Adam," so they prostrated except Iblis. (He) was of the jinn, and he rebelled against the Command (of) his Lord. Will you then take him and his offspring (as) protectors other than Me, while they (are) to you enemies? Wretched for the wrongdoers (is) the exchange.
[Al-Quran 18:50]

The Quran repeatedly warns us of Iblis and his progeny, who are the sworn enemies of Adam and his progeny. Surah alKahf informs us that Iblis was of the jinn. As discussed in جَانٌّ (Snake || Jinn), jinns are snakes! Snakes feature in all belief systems and are prominently visible in a number of religious, regal, medical, maritime, and other state, organisational and professional symbols, both ancient and modern, across the world. Many mythologies falsely attribute relationships between God and the snakes. In the ayaat following the passage about Iblis in Surah alKahf, it goes on to state: 

وَلَقَدْ صَرَّفْنَا فِي هَٰذَا الْقُرْآنِ لِلنَّاسِ مِن كُلِّ مَثَلٍ وَكَانَ الْإِنسَانُ أَكْثَرَ شَيْءٍ جَدَلًا

And certainly, We have explained in this the Quran for mankind of every example. But is the man (in) most things quarrelsome.
[Al-Quran 18:54] 

Among the closing ayaat of Surah alKahf, we read:

أَفَحَسِبَ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا أَن يَتَّخِذُوا عِبَادِي مِن دُونِي أَوْلِيَاءَ إِنَّا أَعْتَدْنَا جَهَنَّمَ لِلْكَافِرِينَ نُزُلًا
قُلْ هَلْ نُنَبِّئُكُم بِالْأَخْسَرِينَ أَعْمَالًا
الَّذِينَ ضَلَّ سَعْيُهُمْ فِي الْحَيَاةِ الدُّنْيَا وَهُمْ يَحْسَبُونَ أَنَّهُمْ يُحْسِنُونَ صُنْعًا
أُولَٰئِكَ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا بِآيَاتِ رَبِّهِمْ وَلِقَائِهِ فَحَبِطَتْ أَعْمَالُهُمْ فَلَا نُقِيمُ لَهُمْ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ وَزْنًا
ذَٰلِكَ جَزَاؤُهُمْ جَهَنَّمُ بِمَا كَفَرُوا وَاتَّخَذُوا آيَاتِي وَرُسُلِي هُزُوًا

Do then think those who disbelieve that they (can) take My servants besides Me (as) protectors? Indeed, We - We have prepared Hell for the disbelievers (as) a lodging.
Say, "Shall We inform you of the greatest losers (as to their) deeds?
Those - is lost their effort in the life (of) the world, while they think that they (were) acquiring good (in) work."
Those (are) the ones who disbelieve in the Verses (of) their Lord, and the meeting (with) Him. So (are) vain their deeds, so not We will assign for them (on) the Day (of) the Resurrection any weight.
That (is) their recompense - Hell - because they disbelieved, and took My Verses and My Messengers (in) ridicule.
[Al-Quran 18:102-106]

Surah alKahf begins with praising Allah for giving us a clear book with no عِوَجًا (ambiguity, distortion or  deviation). It warns of terrible punishment and gives glad tidings of a never-ending reward. It is also a warning for those who attribute a son to Allah. Surah alKahf concludes with:

قُلْ إِنَّمَا أَنَا بَشَرٌ مِّثْلُكُمْ يُوحَىٰ إِلَيَّ أَنَّمَا إِلَٰهُكُمْ إِلَٰهٌ وَاحِدٌ فَمَن كَانَ يَرْجُو لِقَاءَ رَبِّهِ فَلْيَعْمَلْ عَمَلًا صَالِحًا وَلَا يُشْرِكْ بِعِبَادَةِ رَبِّهِ أَحَدًا

Say, "Only I (am) a man like you. Has been revealed to me that your God (is) God One. So whoever is hoping (for the) meeting (with) his Lord, let him do deeds righteous and not associate in (the) worship (of) his Lord anyone."
[Al-Quran 18:110]


Many mighty civilisations have passed away into oblivion, while their ruins remain as evidence.
Surah anNaml grants us a variety of insights into the history of jinns vis-à-vis humans: 
  • Change of State: Moses' staff started moving like a snake, and reverted back into a staff when Moses held it again, as a sign from Allah for Pharaoh, in whose religion snakes and serpents feature prominently.  
  • Subservience of Jinns: Snakes came under the command of the righteous King Solomon to serve in his army; other surahs in The Quran inform us that they were serving Solomon under compulsion, not free-will; the jinns were being guarded and compelled to do the work assigned. 
  • from Everything: The grand throne of Saba and its mighty kingdom are mentioned in particular. They had been given from everything! Satan (the jinn Iblis) had made Sun-worship fair-seeming to this mighty civilisation.   
  • Instantaneous Transportation: The jinn-courtier of Solomon had the ability to transport things across great distances in a short period of time; however, the person who had been given knowledge from The Book could transport things almost instantaneously!   
  • Advanced Technology: When the Queen of Saba saw the level of advancement of Solomon's kingdom, in particular the glass-flooring of his palace, she came to realise that she had been wronging her own Nafs by worshipping the Sun instead of Allah, the actual Sustainer of the Worlds. 
All of the above are topics being pursued in the frontiers of science even today! 

  • The Womb: Surah anNaml also goes on to mention the crimes of the disbelieving Thamud and people of Messenger Lut vis-à-vis the womb: the former rendered it barren, while the latter were indulging in homosexuality, and/or corrupting creation by cross-breeding with the males of the worlds. Surah anNisa` warns us to guard the womb, and of Satan's plots against it!   

Once again, science has advanced to a stage where the womb is being experimented with; and that also with the legal protection of the state!  


  • Surah anNaml foretells that a creature from the Earth will be brought forth because people did not believe in the ayaat/signs.  


Jinns: Abilities & Limitations  
Surah Saba and Surah Saad give us further insights into the abilities and limitations of the jinns:

وَلِسُلَيْمَانَ الرِّيحَ غُدُوُّهَا شَهْرٌ وَرَوَاحُهَا شَهْرٌ وَأَسَلْنَا لَهُ عَيْنَ الْقِطْرِ وَمِنَ الْجِنِّ مَن يَعْمَلُ بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ بِإِذْنِ رَبِّهِ وَمَن يَزِغْ مِنْهُمْ عَنْ أَمْرِنَا نُذِقْهُ مِنْ عَذَابِ السَّعِيرِ
يَعْمَلُونَ لَهُ مَا يَشَاءُ مِن مَّحَارِيبَ وَتَمَاثِيلَ وَجِفَانٍ كَالْجَوَابِ وَقُدُورٍ رَّاسِيَاتٍ اعْمَلُوا آلَ دَاوُودَ شُكْرًا وَقَلِيلٌ مِّنْ عِبَادِيَ الشَّكُورُ
فَلَمَّا قَضَيْنَا عَلَيْهِ الْمَوْتَ مَا دَلَّهُمْ عَلَىٰ مَوْتِهِ إِلَّا دَابَّةُ الْأَرْضِ تَأْكُلُ مِنسَأَتَهُ فَلَمَّا خَرَّ تَبَيَّنَتِ الْجِنُّ أَن لَّوْ كَانُوا يَعْلَمُونَ الْغَيْبَ مَا لَبِثُوا فِي الْعَذَابِ الْمُهِينِ

And to Sulaiman, the wind - its morning course (was) a month and its afternoon course (was) a month, and We caused to flow for him a spring (of) molten copper. And [of] the jinn who worked before him by the permission (of) his Lord. And whoever deviated among them from Our Command, We will make him of (the) punishment (of) the Blaze.
They worked for him what he willed of elevated chambers and statues and bowls like reservoirs and cooking-pots fixed. "Work, O family (of) Dawood! (in) gratitude." But few of My slaves (are) grateful.
Then when We decreed for him the death, not indicated to them [on] his death except a creature (of) the earth eating his staff. But when he fell down, became clear (to) the jinn that if they had known the unseen, not they (would have) remained in the punishment humiliating.
[Al-Quran 34:12-14] 


وَالشَّيَاطِينَ كُلَّ بَنَّاءٍ وَغَوَّاصٍ
وَآخَرِينَ مُقَرَّنِينَ فِي الْأَصْفَادِ

And the devils, every builder and diver,
And others bound in chains.
[Al-Quran 38:37-38] 


Seeking Protection 
Surah alMominun advises the believers to repel evil with what is best, and to seek Allah's protection: 

ادْفَعْ بِالَّتِي هِيَ أَحْسَنُ السَّيِّئَةَ نَحْنُ أَعْلَمُ بِمَا يَصِفُونَ
وَقُل رَّبِّ أَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنْ هَمَزَاتِ الشَّيَاطِينِ
وَأَعُوذُ بِكَ رَبِّ أَن يَحْضُرُونِ

Repel by that which (is) best - the evil. We know best of what they attribute.
And say, "My Lord! I seek refuge in You from (the) suggestions (of) the evil ones,
And I seek refuge in You, My Lord! Lest they be present with me."
[Al-Quran 23:96-98] 


Duly Warned 
On the Day of Judgment, Allah will say to the criminals : 

وَامْتَازُوا الْيَوْمَ أَيُّهَا الْمُجْرِمُونَ
أَلَمْ أَعْهَدْ إِلَيْكُمْ يَا بَنِي آدَمَ أَن لَّا تَعْبُدُوا الشَّيْطَانَ إِنَّهُ لَكُمْ عَدُوٌّ مُّبِينٌ
وَأَنِ اعْبُدُونِي هَٰذَا صِرَاطٌ مُّسْتَقِيمٌ
وَلَقَدْ أَضَلَّ مِنكُمْ جِبِلًّا كَثِيرًا أَفَلَمْ تَكُونُوا تَعْقِلُونَ
هَٰذِهِ جَهَنَّمُ الَّتِي كُنتُمْ تُوعَدُونَ
"But stand apart today O criminals!
Did not I enjoin upon you O Children of Adam! That (do) not worship the Shaitaan, indeed, he (is) for you an enemy clear,
And that you worship Me? This (is) a Path Straight.
And indeed, he led astray from you a multitude great. Then did not you use reason?
This (is) (the) Hell which you were promised.
[Al-Quran 36:59-63] 


Jinns: Protectors & Helpers? 
On the Day of Judgement, Allah will ask the angels:

وَيَوْمَ يَحْشُرُهُمْ جَمِيعًا ثُمَّ يَقُولُ لِلْمَلَائِكَةِ أَهَٰؤُلَاءِ إِيَّاكُمْ كَانُوا يَعْبُدُونَ
قَالُوا سُبْحَانَكَ أَنتَ وَلِيُّنَا مِن دُونِهِم بَلْ كَانُوا يَعْبُدُونَ الْجِنَّ أَكْثَرُهُم بِهِم مُّؤْمِنُونَ

And (the) Day He will gather them all, then He will say to the Angels, "Were these you they were worshipping?"
They will say, "Glory be to You (are) our Protector, not them. Nay, they used (to) worship the jinn, most of them in them (were) believers."
 [Al-Quran 34:40-41] 

Surah Yasin further informs us that when people seek help from other than Allah, they themselves become soldiers for those false gods:  

وَاتَّخَذُوا مِن دُونِ اللَّهِ آلِهَةً لَّعَلَّهُمْ يُنصَرُونَ
لَا يَسْتَطِيعُونَ نَصْرَهُمْ وَهُمْ لَهُمْ جُندٌ مُّحْضَرُونَ
فَلَا يَحْزُنكَ قَوْلُهُمْ إِنَّا نَعْلَمُ مَا يُسِرُّونَ وَمَا يُعْلِنُونَ

But they have taken besides Allah gods, that they may be helped.
Not they are able to help them, but they - for them (are) hosts (who will) be brought.
So (let) not grieve you their speech. Indeed, We [We] know what they conceal and what they declare.
[Al-Quran 36:74-76] 

Surah alJinn clearly tells us: 

وَأَنَّهُ كَانَ رِجَالٌ مِّنَ الْإِنسِ يَعُوذُونَ بِرِجَالٍ مِّنَ الْجِنِّ فَزَادُوهُمْ رَهَقًا

And that (there) were men among mankind who sought refuge in (the) men from the jinn, so they increased them (in) burden.
[Al-Quran 72:6]
