Rukuh

"I don't understand that one funny position in your muslim prayers".

"Which one?"

"In which you put your hands on knees and bend forward half of your body".

"Oh ! you mean RUKUH. We call it rukuh".

"And ?"


"It signifies that even if you submit half of yourself to All mighty - he will accept you, as he is very merciful. Probably idea is to enhance the concept of submission to him in deeds of everyday's life".

(Agar khuda ki taraf aadhe bhi juhk jao to woh tumhe qabool ker lega)

"Agar khuda ki taraf aadhe bhi juhk jao to woh tumhe qabool ker lega"

That's a poetic way to put it. Lekin phir hum sajda kyun karte hain?
