Sajda, the kiss of forehead to earth, becomes a canvas in Urdu shayri, painted with emotions as rich as mosque carpets. Here, it is monstly used as Sajdra or bending the knee or bowing in front of God (Allah). It is the main pillar of Islamic teachings and an obligatory (farz) action to be performed by a Muslim. Verses pirouette on prayer rugs, capturing the yearning whisper of namaz as it ascends through minarets of longing.

Urdu Ghazal on Prayer (Namaz)
Imagine lines etched in moonlight, tracing the descent from namaz-e-fajr’s misty dawn to the dusk-laden shadows of maghrib. A ghazal mourns the distance between sajda and sajdah, each forehead kiss a lament for the fleeting touch of divine connection. Allah has ordered in Quran as well as through the Hadith of Prophet Muhammad PBUH to perform Sajda in form of Namaz for five times in day. Yet, within that ache blossoms a hope, nurtured by verses that breathe with the scent of frankincense and the rhythm of whispered dhikr.
The mosque, a haven of hushed devotion, becomes a backdrop in Sajda-soaked shayri. Sunbeams dancing through stained glass cast mosaics of hope onto bowed heads, each sajda a mosaic tile in the grand mural of faith. The murmur of supplication weaves its magic, transforming the air into a tapestry woven with silent pleas and whispered gratitude.
And then, there are those verses that thrum with the pulse of namaz and sajda. They are not mere words, but echoes of the heart’s symphony, the quiet thunder of a soul in communion with the unseen. They become talismans, carried in minds and whispered onto lips, reminding us that in the hushed intimacy of sajda, even the most profound silence speaks volumes.
Conclusion
This is the magic of Sajda Poetry – a kaleidoscope of devotion, longing, and quiet reverence, painted in the vibrant hues of Urdu shayri. It is a journey that begins with a single forehead kiss and soars into the ethereal realms of faith, inviting us to experience the profound beauty of prayer, one verse at a time.sharemore_vertadd_photo_alternate
