As-sajdah (السجدة), is the 32nd chapter of the Quran with 30 verses

The name of the chapter has been translated as ۩ "Prostration" [1] or "Adoration".[2] and is taken from the fifteenth verse, which mentions those who "... fall prostrate and hymn the praise of their Lord"

Regarding the timing and contextual background of the believed revelation, it is an earlier "Meccan surah", which means it is believed revealed in Mecca, instead of later in Medina
