This study explores the profound relationship between the revolution of celestial bodies, particularly the Sun, and the concept of Sajdah (prostration) as described in Islamic theology. Drawing from Quranic verses such as Kullun Fi Falak (21:33) and Hadith literature (Sahih al-Bukhari, Book 4, Hadith 421), this research bridges the gap between Islamic teachings and modern celestial mechanics. By employing mathematical models, linguistic analysis, and Tafakkur (contemplation), it reveals how the Sun’s continuous motion in its orbit can be understood as an act of perpetual submission to Allah.The Sun’s trajectory, along with the movements of all cosmic entities—from atoms to galaxies—exemplifies a universal order of revolution and submission. This work proposes that everything in existence is engaged in an ongoing act of Sajdah through its motion, symbolizing both physical obedience and spiritual humility before the Creator. Furthermore, scientific interpretations of cosmic phenomena, such as black holes and the expansion and contraction of the universe, align with eschatological descriptions in the Quran, reinforcing the interconnectedness of divine will and natural laws.Through Creationology, the contemplation of creation, this paper underscores the necessity of continuous Tafakkur to expand both scientific understanding and spiritual insight. By reflecting on the relationship between the physical universe and divine submission, we not only strengthen our faith but also uncover new dimensions of knowledge that harmonize science and spirituality.
