[37].Surah As-Saffat (Those Ranged in Ranks): Ayat 158-159

১৫৮. তারা আল্লাহ ও জ্বিনদের মধ্যে সম্পর্ক সাব্যস্ত করেছে, অথচ জ্বিনেরা জানে যে, তারা গ্রেফতার হয়ে আসবে।

১৫৯. তারা যা বলে তা থেকে আল্লাহ পবিত্র।

Ayat 158. And they have invented a kinship between Him and the jinn’s, but the jinn’s know well that they have indeed to appear (before Him) (i.e. they will be brought for accounts).

Ayat 159. Glorified is Allah! (He is Free) from what they attribute unto Him!

Tafseer of Surah As-Saffat (Those Ranged in Ranks) Ayat 158. And they have invented a blood-relationship between Him and the Jinns: but the Jinns know (quite well) that they have indeed to appear (before his Judgment- Seat)! The angels are at least pure beings engaged in the service of Allah. But the Pagan superstitions not only connect them with Allah as daughters but even connect Allah by relationship with all kinds of spirits, good or evil! In some mythologies the most evil powers are gods or goddesses as if they belonged to the family of Allah the Creator and had some semblance of equality with Him! This, too, is repudiated in the strongest terms. For Jinns see 6:100. Ayat 159. Glory to Allah. (He is free) from the things they ascribe (to Him)!

Hazrat Ibn Abbas (May Allah be pleased with them) reported: The Messenger of Allah [SAWW](PBUH) said: "Glorify your Lord in Ruku` (bowing posture) and exert yourself in supplication in prostration. Thus your supplications are liable to be accepted.'' [Muslim Book 004, Chapter 37, Hadith # 970]

Abu Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Messenger of Allah [SAWW](PBUH) said, "A slave becomes nearest to his Rubb when he is in prostration. So increase supplications while prostrating.'' [Muslim Book 004, Chapter 37, Hadith # 979]

Lesson: as mentioned above in Surah As-Saffat Ayat 159. Glorified is Allah! (He is Free) from what they attribute unto Him! ” Both the Ahadith mentioned above, evidently show that there is greater possibility of acceptance of an invocation which is made in prostration. Therefore, one must do it in the voluntary Salat.
