۩ Sujūd (Arabic: سُجود, [sʊˈdʒuːd]), or sajdah (سجدة, pronounced[ˈsadʒda(tu)]), also known as sijda,sejda or shejda is the act of low bowing or prostration to (God) facing the qiblah (direction of the Kaaba at Mecca). It is usually done in standardized prayers (salah). The position involves kneeling and bowing till one touches the ground with 7 bones (points): the forehead & nose, two hands, two knees and two sets of toes.[1] In accordance with the Sunnah (the Way) of Muhammad, one's elbows should be far from one's body,[2] unless it causes discomfort to other worshippers. Some scholars hold the position that this applies only to men, and that women are encouraged to tuck their elbows in out of modesty,[3]
