Prostration (Sajdah) or Facing him (Allah c.c.)

Prostration [Sajdah]

Prostration involves putting the following parts of the body - the bare forehead, both palms, both knees, the base of the toes of both feet - on the place of prostration. The forehead must be bare; a covered forehead invalidates prayer

disagree Mehmet Hascan : Salih by, bu kelime Çin kültüründe var. bkz. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kowtow - The Oxford dictionary defines the term "kowtow" as "(informal, disapproving) to show sb in authority too much respect and be too willing to obey them".

"sajdah" Arapça kökenli olup, dini müslüman olmayan gerek anadili İngilizce gerekse İngilizce bilen birisi tarafından anlaşılması çok zor. Sadece 'sajdah' değil ayrıca 'sujūd' kelimesi de Arapçada secde demekmiş.

Lütfen internette İngilizce Kuran çevirilerine bir bakın. Ben şimdiye kadar hiç birinde özellikle 'Hilali, Khan', Yusufali ve NJ Dawood çevirilerinde 'sajdah' kelimesini göremedim.
Note from asker:
Katılıyorum. Ancak dinsel ritüel açısından daha yerinde bir terim olduğu belirtildiği ve ritüeli dışarıdan değil içeriden yansıttığından dolayı diğer cevap daha “doğru” göründü bana.
Bu uyarı için çok teşekkürler.
