16:49

وَلِلَّهِ يَسۡجُدُ مَا فِى ٱلسَّمَـٰوَٲتِ وَمَا فِى ٱلۡأَرۡضِ مِن دَآبَّةٍ۬ وَٱلۡمَلَـٰٓٮِٕكَةُ وَهُمۡ لَا يَسۡتَكۡبِرُونَ ٤٩

To ALLAH prostrates everything in the Heavens and everything on Earth – every creature – and so do the angels; without the least arrogance.

Proofs and revelations

The human body, whether it belongs to a believer or a disbeliever, submits to Allah. The heart beats, the lungs breathe air, the eyes blink, and peristalsis occurs – all of these illustrate this submission.

Proofs that ALLAH is One

2. Who is ALLAH (God) and why do humans have to believe in Him?
16:49 - 16:52 To ALLAH prostrates everything in the Heavens and everything on Earth - every creature - and so do the angels; without the least arrogance. They reverence their Lord, high above them, and they do what they are commanded to do. ALLAH has proclaimed: "Do not worship two gods; there is only one god. You shall reverence Me alone." To Him belongs everything in the Heavens and the Earth and therefore, the religion shall be devoted absolutely to Him alone. Would you worship other than ALLAH?
