Description

The Arabic root ركع (r-k-ʿ) carries the core meaning of bowing or bending down, specifically referring to the physical act of bowing in Islamic prayer where one bends forward at the waist with hands on knees. In the Quranic context, this root signifies ritual submission and humility before God, representing both the outward physical posture and the inward spiritual state of worship and obedience. The term appears consistently to describe those who perform prayer correctly and are among the righteous believers, making it a fundamental marker of Islamic devotion and practice.
