Beauty of Sujood in Islam
Assalamualaikum,
When you face a worst heartbreak as an example-you feel down, the pain, the humiliated, etc. Then, you will need some time to be alone, crying over a pillow for days, later post it on your social media. U-huh, NO. No. No. Why post it to the public? To show the cheap of yours to the world? For them to see about how sad you're right now? That you're the one that only a feeling in this entire universe? I tried to be honest here girls, they really just don't care about your feeling. This is what so wrong in this generation and of course this not going to solve anything for you or for them.
In my POV, sadness and tears are very private and personal things. Tears optional either for extreme happiness or sadness, that you're in the battle between inner soul and caught in heart feeling. That you're in the weakest situation and you surely need some space for it. When one people in emotional instability, surely you can said without think and make it more worsen. That's why I said it's really not suitable to show to the public, but little bit okay if only you think it learning things for other people.
As you can see when someone got caught in a feeling, you will cover your eyes for a man and cover your mouth for women. This is shows where more sin come from, a man eyes and women mouth. MasyaAllah, He knows everything. If only your heart break a thousand million times, you're not broken, you are just being called come back to Him. So, take a ablution and start praying. Then, pour everything you got in the sujood. ''If you knew how powerful the sujood is you will never lift your head off from the ground!'',
Can you imagine, we surrender our soul or put ''slave manners'' in 17 sujood per day. We said, ''How perfect is my Lord, the Most Highest'' or “Glory be to my Lord, Most High.”. Three times. We praise him every morning after wake up, noon when busy with dhunya and night before sleep. This make our heart already attach to Him, so when you feeling down or upset-just go to Him and tell everything. ''Sujood-A love story no one will understand, except only those who pray.''
''The beauty of sujood is you whisper down on earth and it's heard up in the heavens'' , another wise words that show sujood is only the answer. The truth is, ''And in sujood I found what I lost''. That's why Allah encourage us to wake up in between of the 3/4 night to talk to Him. Do a Tahajjud. In middle of nowhere, a peaceful night before everyone wake up with own busy life, children attention...start your day with talking to Him sincerely to calm and clear up your inner soul. Best communication ever, a feeling be heard without a much talk. Only with your Creator can do that.
In health, sujood is the only position in salah that put your brain below the heart. It's reduces stress, and this position only meant for Allah. There are so much articles about how beneficial the sujood is. One here in Saudi Gazette- said, ''Healthcare advocates and scientists are discovering the amazing health benefits of grounding or earthing, which is what occurs during prostration in the Muslim’s prayer, especially when you pray outside on the ground-much research on the positive effects of grounding on your health.''
Continues, ''The Earth is an electrical planet and our bodies are bioelectrical beings. Absorbing help neutralize the positively charged free radicals in our body that damage our cells. The destructive activity of free radicals in the body has been linked with many diseases and accelerated aging. According to Dr. Sinatra, “Grounding can restore and stabilize the bioelectrical circuitry that governs your physiology and organs, harmonize your basic biological rhythms, boost self-healing mechanisms, reduce inflammation and pain, and improve your sleep and feeling of calmness.”
InsyaAllah, we are in the group that find a peace and calmness when in sujood. Willingness in practices a lot of sujood, do Tahajjud everyday. Expression of inner soul only for Allah because come on, you surely will feel more ashamed 'bout how ugly you're with flushed face and watery nose. Reality! Then, please have a respect to yourself and don't do that. MasyaAllah. May Allah bless our life journey and keep happiness aside always.
