Hmmm, and what about the zikr in the state of prostration. Please answer this.

It also seems to me that Remormist forgot this:

وَإِذْ قُلْنَا لِلْمَلاَئِكَةِ اسْجُدُواْ لآدَمَ 

:) he also forgot another sajdah mentioned in Qur'an.

There are 14 places in the Sacred Book of Allah (سُبْحَانَهُ وَ تَعَالَى) where the Prostration of Recitation becomes obligatory to perform which are:

  1.  Surah Al A’Raf (7) Ayat 206
  2.  Surah Al Ra’d (13) Ayat 15
  3.  Surah Al Nahl (16) Ayat 50
  4.  Surah Bani Israil (17) Ayat 109
  5. Surah Maryum (19) Ayat 58
  6.  Surah Al Haj (22) Ayat 18
  7.  Surah Al Farqan (25) Ayat 60
  8.  Surah Al Naml (27) Ayat 26
  9. Surah As Sajdah (32) Ayat 15
  10.  Surah Sa’d (38) Ayat 24
  11.  Surah Hamim Sajdah (41) Ayat 38
  12.  Surah Al Najam (53) Ayat 62
  13.  Surah Inshiqaq (84) Ayat 21
  14.  Surah Al Alaq (96) Ayat 19

The count of Surahs that have these verses of prostration is exactly equal to 14 as given below that is important Milestone:

  1. Sura Al A'raf (7)
  2. Surah Al Ra’d (13)
  3. Surah Al Nahl (16)
  4. Surah Bani Israil (17)
  5. Surah Maryum (19)
  6. Surah Al Haj (22)
  7. Surah Al Farqan (25)
  8. Surah Al Naml (27)
  9. Surah As Sajdah (32)
  10. Surah Sa’d (38) Ayat 24
  11. Surah Hamim Sajdah (41)
  12. Surah Al Najam (53)
  13. Surah Inshiqaq (84)
  14. Surah Al Alaq (96)

 I just quote the following verses regarding Sujud ie Sajda to Adam AS without giving any further comments:

وَإِذْ قَالَ رَبُّكَ لِلْمَلَائِكَةِ إِنِّي جَاعِلٌ فِي الْأَرْضِ خَلِيفَةً ۖ قَالُوا أَتَجْعَلُ فِيهَا مَن يُفْسِدُ فِيهَا وَيَسْفِكُ الدِّمَاءَ وَنَحْنُ نُسَبِّحُ بِحَمْدِكَ وَنُقَدِّسُ لَكَ ۖ قَالَ إِنِّي أَعْلَمُ مَا لَا تَعْلَمُونَ

Shakir

And when your Lord said to the angels, I am going to place in the Earth a khalif, they said: What! wilt Thou place in it such as shall make mischief in it and shed blood, and we celebrate Thy praise and extol Thy holiness? He said: Surely I know what you do not know. (2:30)

وَإِذْ قُلْنَا لِلْمَلَائِكَةِ اسْجُدُوا لِآدَمَ فَسَجَدُوا إِلَّا إِبْلِيسَ أَبَىٰ وَاسْتَكْبَرَ وَكَانَ مِنَ الْكَافِرِينَ

Shakir

And when We said to the angels: Make obeisance to Adam they did obeisance, but Iblis (did it not). He refused and he was proud, and he was one of the unbelievers. (2:34)

In the book' 'Uyun-ul-Akhbar' by Shaykh al-Saduq, it is cited that Imam Ali ibn Musa ar-Rida (عليه السلام) said:

"The angels' prostration was for the adoration of worshipping Allah, on one side, and for the obeisance and respect of Adam (عليه السلام), on the other side, because we (Ahlul Bayt) were in his seed." 6

According to al-Islam.org, calling upon the Prophet and the Imams  is allegorical, not literal. These people are the closest to Allah, and they enjoy a special status with Him, so calling upon them means calling upon Allah for the sake of those whom He loves.
