And to God prostrates whatever is in the heavens and whatever is on the earth of living creatures that is of every single thing that moves thereupon; in other words to Him it everything is subservient in terms of what is required of it — most of what is given by way of example is non-rational since these are the more numerous — and the angels also prostrate — these are singled out for mention because of their merit — and they are not arrogant they do not disdain to worship Him.
- 16:4949
وَلِلَّهِ يَسْجُدُ مَا فِي السَّمَاوَاتِ وَمَا فِي الْأَرْضِ مِنْ دَابَّةٍ وَالْمَلَائِكَةُ وَهُمْ لَا يَسْتَكْبِرُونَ
All things that move on the earth and in the heavens, and the angels, bow in homage to God, and do not behave with pride.
