Transliteration:( Fasajadal malaaa'ikatu kulluhum ajma'oon )
127. From this, emerge two issues:Â
1. This prostration was for Hazrat Adam (On whom be peace) only in the form of prostration of respect. If the prostration was for Allah Almighty and Hazrat Adam (On whom be peace) was made its direction, then the pronominal preposition 'for him' would not have been used. Also, the devil would not have refused to offer this prostration.
 2. All the angels had offered the prostration of those beloved of Allah Almighty as well as those who are executors of His commands on the earth and in the heavens.
