CLOSING PRAYER
Ya Allah (O Allah), we prostrate to You in submission and awe. We praise You for guiding us through the moving verses of Surah As-Sajdah word by word.
O Rabb of the Worlds, make us among those who, when reminded of Your verses, fall down in prostration and glorify You with praise, devoid of arrogance. Grant us the tawfiq to forsake our beds at night to call upon You in fear and hope. Bestow upon us the hidden “comfort of the eyes” (Qurratu A’yun) reserved for the righteous in Paradise.
Do not let this knowledge remain only on our tongues; transform it into righteous action in our lives. Accept this humble effort from us, for truly, You are the All-Hearing, the All-Knowing. Ameen.
How the Word-by-Word Analysis of Surah As-Sajdah Works
Unlike standard translations that give you the general meaning of a sentence, this page utilizes a unique “Full Context” Method. We display the data in two distinct layers to ensure you never lose the flow of Surah As-Sajdah:
- Top Row (Context): Read the Complete Arabic Verse alongside the Full English Translation to grasp the overall message and narrative of the Surah.
- Bottom Row (Analysis): Dive into the Word-by-Word breakdown to see the exact meaning, spelling, and root origin of every single word in sequence.
Understanding the Color–Coded Grammar Guide for Surah As-Sajdah
Learn Quranic Arabic grammar (Nahw & Sarf) intuitively while you read. This resource replaces complex textbook rules with immediate visual cues. Every word in Surah As-Sajdah is presented as an interactive “Grammar Card” featuring instant color-coding:
- Noun (Ism): Marked in Blue (Names, places, objects).
- Verb (Fi’l): Marked in Red (Actions, tenses).
- Particle (Harf): Marked in Green (Prepositions, connecting words).
This visual aid helps you instantly recognize sentence structures and parts of speech within the verses, aiding in faster retention and comprehension.
Transliteration & Pronunciation of Surah As-Sajdah
You do not need to be fluent in reading Arabic script to start reciting. Perfect your pronunciation with the Tajweed-friendly Transliteration included on every word card. This phonetic guide helps you pronounce challenging words in Surah As-Sajdah correctly, connecting the sound directly to the meaning.
Quranic Statistics: Building Vocabulary through Surah As-Sajdah
Many students feel overwhelmed by the vastness of the Quran, but the numbers prove it is achievable. The Quran is composed of approximately 77,797 total words, yet the vocabulary is highly repetitive.
- Total Unique Words: Approximately 14,870.
- Actual Root Words: Only ~2,000 words.
By reading Surah As-Sajdah word-by-word, you are learning the essential root words found in this chapter. Since these roots repeat frequently throughout the Quran, mastering the vocabulary in these verses directly contributes to understanding the entire Holy Book.
Enhance Your Salah with Surah As-Sajdah
During the five daily prayers, a Muslim recites and repeats an average of 200-250 Arabic words. If these words are not understood, the mind often wanders. Reading Surah As-Sajdah word-by-word helps you recognize this vocabulary in real-time. When you stand for prayer and recite verses from this Surah, you will finally understand exactly what you are saying to your Creator, leading to:
- Khushu (Focus): A concentrated mind during Salah.
- Quality: A higher spiritual quality of worship.
- Connection: An immediate, emotional connection to the recitation.
