The Beauty of Prostration

Thauban (May Allah be pleased with him) said: I heard Messenger of Allah (Peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) saying, "Perform Salah more often. For every prostration that you perform before Allah will raise your position one degree and will remit one of your sins". [Muslim].

Commentary: Abundance of prostrations means strict observance of Salat and performance of obligatory and optional and voluntary prayers, it is a means for atonement of sins and the elevation of one's status in this life and the Hereafter.
