Ayat
18. See you not that to Allah
prostrates whoever is in the heavens and whoever is on the earth, and the sun,
and the moon, and the stars, and the mountains, and the trees, and
Ad-Dawâb (moving living creatures, beasts, etc.), and many of mankind?
But there are many (men) on whom the punishment is justified. And whomsoever
Allah disgraces, none can honour him. Verily! Allah does what He wills. (Ayat Sajda after reciting please perform
Sajda)
[Tafseer] Sees thou not that to Allah
bow down in worship all things that are in the heavens and on earth, the sun,
the moon, the stars; the hills, the trees, the animals; and a great number among
mankind? But a great number are (also) such as are fit for Punishment: and such
as Allah shall disgrace,- None can raise to honour: for Allah carries out all
that He wills. All created things, animate and inanimate, depend on Allah for
their existence, and this dependence can be construed as their Sajda or bowing
down in worship. Their very existence proclaims their dependence. How can they
be objects of worship? For haqqa in this verse , There the argument was that
those who work in harmony with Allah's Law and Will will get their reward,
for Allah always carries out His Plan. Here is the parallel argument: those who
defy Allah's Will must suffer pain and
disgrace, for Allah is well able to carry out His
Will.
Hazrat Saad bin Abu Waqqas (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: We left
Makkah with the Messenger of Allah 
[SAWW](PBUH) for Al-Madinah, and when we were near Azwara,' he
[SAWW](PBUH) alighted (from his riding-camel) raised his hands in supplication
to Allah for a while and prostrated himself. He remained for a long time in
prostration. Then he stood up and raised his hands for a
while, after which he prostrated himself (again), and remained for a long time
in prostration. Then he stood up and raised his hands for a while, after which
he prostrated himself for the third time. Then he
[SAWW](PBUH) said, "I supplicated my Rubb and made intercession for my Ummah,
and He granted me one-third of them. So I again prostrated myself in gratitude
to my Rubb. Then I raised my head and supplicated my Rubb for my Ummah, and He
granted me another third of them. Again I raised my head and supplicated my Rubb
for my Ummah and He granted me the last third of them. So I fell into
prostration out of gratitude before my Rubb.''
[Abu
Dawud, Hadith #
2775]
Lesson : as
mentioned above in Surah Al-Hajj Ayat 18."See
you not that to Allah prostrates whoever is in the heavens and whoever is on the
earth" The phrase "I supplicated my Rubb and
made intercession for my Ummah'' means that the Prophet (PBUH) prayed to Allah
to pardon his Ummah and to admit them to Jannah. The interpretation of this
Hadith is stated to be that ultimately all the Muslims will be sent to Jannah.
They will not abide in Hell for ever. Some of them will go to Jannah after
suffering the punishment for their major sins, some through the intercession of
the Prophet (PBUH), and some by the Special Grace of Allah. This interpretation
is no doubt true. This is confirmed by other Ahadith and forms the belief of the
followers of Sunnah of the Prophet (PBUH).
