2/125 Remember We made the House a place of assembly for men and a place of
safety; and take ye the station of Abraham as a place of prayer; and We covenanted with Abraham and Isma'il, that they should sanctify My House for those who compass it round, or use it as a retreat, or bow, or prostrate themselves (therein in prayer). 

3/113 Not all of them are alike: Of the People of the Book are a portion that stand : They rehearse the Signs of God all night long, and they prostrate themselves in adoration   

13/15 Whatever beings there are in the heavens and the earth do prostrate themselves to God  (Acknowledging subjection), with good-will or in spite of themselves: so do their shadows in the morning and evenings.

17/107 Say: "Whether ye believe in it or not, it is true that those who were given knowledge beforehand, when it is recited to them, fall down on their faces in humble prostration,   

17/109 And they fall down on their faces weeping, and it adds to their humility.

20/70 So the magicians were thrown down to prostration: they said, "We believe in the Lord of Aaron and Moses". 

Chapter 32 As Sajdah (The Prostration or Adoration)    

32/15 Only those believe in Our Signs, who, when they are recited to them, fall down in adoration (prostration), and celebrate the praises of their Lord, nor are they (ever) puffed up with pride. 

38/24 (David) said: "He has undoubtedly wronged thee in demanding thy (single)
ewe to be added to his (flock of) ewes: truly many are the partners (in business) who wrong each other: Not so do those who believe and work deeds of righteousness, and how few are they?"...and David gathered that We had tried him: he asked forgiveness of his Lord, fell down, bowing (in prostration), and turned (to God in repentance). 

48/29 Muhammad is the apostle of God; and those who are with him are strong
against Unbelievers, (but) compassionate amongst each other. Thou wilt see them
bow and prostrate themselves (in prayer), seeking Grace from God and (His) Good
Pleasure. On their faces are their marks (the traces) of their prostration. This is
their similitude in the Torah; and their similitude in the Gospel is: like a seed which sends forth its blade, then makes it strong; it then becomes thick, and it stands on its own stem, (filling) the sowers with wonder and delight. As a result, it fills the Unbelievers with rage at them. God has promised those among them who believe and do righteous deeds forgiveness, and a great Reward. 

53/62 But fall ye down in prostration to God, and adore (Him)!   


                           Glorification during prostration

22/77 O ye who believe! bow down, prostrate yourselves, and adore your Lord;
and do good; that ye may prosper.   

50/40 And during part of the night, (also,) celebrate His praises, and (likewise) after the postures of adoration (prostration and bowing).
