Quran 16:48~50

Have they not considered how the shadows of everything Allah has created incline to the right and the left ˹as the sun moves˺, totally submitting to Allah in all humility? And to Allah ˹alone˺ bows down ˹in submission˺ whatever is in the heavens and whatever is on the earth of living creatures, as do the angels—who are not too proud ˹ to do so˺. They fear their Lord above them, and do whatever they are commanded. Quran 16:48~50 Surah an-Nahl (The Bee) prostration verse
The Bee (Arabic: الْنَّحْل; an-naḥl) is the 16th chapter (sūrah) of the Qur’an, with 128 verses (āyāt).

أَوَ لَمۡ یَرَوۡا۟ إِلَىٰ مَا خَلَقَ ٱللَّهُ مِن شَیۡءࣲ یَتَفَیَّؤُا۟ ظِلَـٰلُهُۥ عَنِ ٱلۡیَمِینِ وَٱلشَّمَاۤىِٕلِ سُجَّدࣰا لِّلَّهِ وَهُمۡ دَ ٰخِرُونَ وَلِلَّهِ يَسْجُدُ مَا فِى ٱلسَّمَـٰوَٰتِ وَمَا فِى ٱلْأَرْضِ مِن دَآبَّةٍۢ وَٱلْمَلَـٰٓئِكَةُ وَهُمْ لَا يَسْتَكْبِرُونَ ۩ یَخَافُونَ رَبَّهُم مِّن فَوۡقِهِمۡ وَیَفۡعَلُونَ مَا یُؤۡمَرُونَ ‏‏‏‏‏‏‏

الۤمۤ تَنزِیلُ ٱلۡكِتَـٰبِ لَا رَیۡبَ فِیهِ مِن رَّبِّ ٱلۡعَـٰلَمِینَ أَمۡ یَقُولُونَ ٱفۡتَرَىٰهُۚ بَلۡ هُوَ ٱلۡحَقُّ مِن رَّبِّكَ لِتُنذِرَ قَوۡمࣰا مَّاۤ أَتَىٰهُم مِّن نَّذِیرࣲ مِّن قَبۡلِكَ لَعَلَّهُمۡ یَهۡتَدُونَ
The Surah discusses some of the doubts and arguments of the non-believers against the principles of Tawhid, Risalah and Akhirah.
It invites human beings to think and reflect on their own selves and on the nature surrounding them.
Every thing points that there is a Wise and Powerful Creator for this universe.
He has not created all this phenomenon in vain. The creation has a purpose.
الٓمٓ اس میں کچھ شک نہیں کہ اس کتاب کا نازل کیا جانا تمام جہان کے پروردگار کی طرف سے ہے کیا یہ لوگ یہ کہتے ہیں کہ پیغمبر نے اس کو از خود بنا لیا ہے (نہیں) بلکہ وہ تمہارے پروردگار کی طرف سے برحق ہے تاکہ تم ان لوگوں کو ہدایت کرو جن کے پاس تم سے پہلے کوئی ہدایت کرنے والا نہیں آیا تاکہ وہ راہ پائیں

Quran 96:9~19

Have you seen the man who prevents a servant ˹of Ours˺ from praying? What if this ˹servant˺ is ˹rightly˺ guided, or encourages righteousness? What if that ˹man˺ persists in denial and turns away? Does he not know that Allah sees ˹all˺? But no ! If he does not desist, We will certainly drag him by the forelock—a lying, sinful forelock. So let him call his associates. We will call the wardens of Hell. Again, no ! Never obey him ˹O Prophet˺! Rather, ˹continue to˺ prostrate and draw near ˹to Allah˺. ۩ PROSTRATION VERSE Quran 96:9~19 [SURAH AL-’ALAQ]

خَلَقَ الْإِنسَانَ مِنْ عَلَقٍ

أَرَءَیۡتَ ٱلَّذِی یَنۡهَىٰ عَبۡدًا إِذَا صَلَّىٰۤ أَرَءَیۡتَ إِن كَانَ عَلَى ٱلۡهُدَىٰۤ أَوۡ أَمَرَ بِٱلتَّقۡوَىٰۤ أَرَءَیۡتَ إِن كَذَّبَ وَتَوَلَّىٰۤ أَلَمۡ یَعۡلَم بِأَنَّ ٱللَّهَ یَرَىٰ كَلَّا لَىِٕن لَّمۡ یَنتَهِ لَنَسۡفَعَۢا بِٱلنَّاصِیَةِ نَاصِیَةࣲ كَـٰذِبَةٍ خَاطِئَةࣲ فَلۡیَدۡعُ نَادِیَهُۥ سَنَدۡعُ ٱلزَّبَانِیَةَ كَلَّا لَا تُطِعۡهُ وَٱسۡجُدۡۤ وَٱقۡتَرِب ۩
The first five Ayat are among the first that were revealed to the Prophet (saw), aged forty, in the cave of Hira, Makkah.
Then the rest of the Surah was revealed when the message was presented to the people of Makkah and they began threatening the Prophet.
The Surah speaks about the humble beginning of human beings, but the high position that they can receive if they follow the message of Allah.
تم نے دیکھا اُس شخص کو جو ایک بندے کو منع کرتا ہے جبکہ وہ نماز پڑھتا ہو؟ تمہارا کیا خیال ہے اگر (وہ بندہ) راہ راست پر ہو یا پرہیزگاری کی تلقین کرتا ہو؟ تمہارا کیا خیال ہے اگر (یہ منع کرنے والا شخص حق کو) جھٹلاتا اور منہ موڑتا ہو؟ کیا وہ نہیں جانتا کہ اللہ دیکھ رہا ہے؟ ہرگز نہیں، اگر وہ باز نہ آیا تو ہم اس کی پیشانی کے بال پکڑ کر اسے کھینچیں گے اُس پیشانی کو جو جھوٹی اور سخت خطا کار ہے وہ بلا لے اپنے حامیوں کی ٹولی کو ہم بھی عذاب کے فرشتوں کو بلا لیں گے ہرگز نہیں، اُس کی بات نہ مانو اور سجدہ کرو اور (اپنے رب کا) قرب حاصل کرو ۩
Chapter 96 of the Qur’an is traditionally believed to have been Muhammad’s first revelation.
While on retreat in the Cave of Hira, located at Mountain Jabal al-Nour near Mecca, Angel Gabriel appears before The Islamic Prophet and commands him to “Read!”.
He responded, “But I cannot read!”.
Then the angel Gabriel embraced him tightly and then revealed to him the first lines,
“Read: In the name of your Lord Who created, (1) Created man from a clot. (2) Read: And your Lord is the Most Generous, (3) Who taught by the pen, (4) Taught man that which he knew not.”
(Bukhari 4953).
It is traditionally understood the first five ayat or verses (1–5) of Surah Alaq were revealed;
however, this is not the first fully complete Surah to be revealed and was actually revealed in 3 parts.
