Summary: Surah Al-Sajdah (32:1-9). Shaykh Amin provides an introduction to Surah Al-Sajdah and comments on the comprehensive meaning of the word sajdah. In this lecture: the soundness of saying, “I do not understand” after understanding the wisdom of Luqman; sajdah as a representation of the universal submission of the intellect; how the worship of Allah (S) makes one more knowledgeable; the fallibility of knowledge that is not wahy-based; the purpose of revelation; understanding revelation secondary to submission; the transcending nature of prophetic sight; the inadequacies in transferring knowledge across worlds; Divine commands and time.
