Surah Al-A'raf — 7:206

إِنَّ ٱلَّذِينَ عِندَ رَبِّكَ لَا يَسْتَكْبِرُونَ عَنْ عِبَادَتِهِۦ وَيُسَبِّحُونَهُۥ وَلَهُۥ يَسْجُدُونَ ۩

Innal lazeena 'inda Rabbika laa yastakbiroona 'an 'ibaadatihee wa yusabbihoonahoo wa lahoo yasjudoon

Doğrusu Rabbinin katında olanlar, O'na kulluk etmekten büyüklenmezler, O'nu tenzih ederler ve yalnız O'na secde ederler.

Those who are with your Lord are never too proud to worship him; they glorify him, and to him they prostrate.

Reflection

Al-A'raf closes on beings who are already doing what the verse before it asks of the reader: remembrance in awe, worship carried without any sense of being above it. This is also the first place in the mushaf where a reciter prostrates, so the surah ends with the reader in the posture it has just described. Commentators gloss the nearness in ʿinda rabbika as one of standing.
