quran:16:49 –

And to Allah prostrates whatever is in the heavens and whatever is on the earth of creatures, and the angels ˹as well˺, and they are not arrogant.

And to God prostrates whatever is in the heavens and whatever is on the earth of living creatures, that is, ˹of˺ every single thing that moves thereupon; in other words, to Him it ˹everything˺ is subservient in terms of what is required of it — most of what is given ˹by way of example˺ is non-rational, since these are ˹the more˺ numerous — and the angels ˹also prostrate˺ — these are singled out for mention because of their merit — and they are not arrogant, they do ˹not˺ disdain to worship Him.

القرآن:١٦:٤٩ –

وَلِلَّهِ يَسْجُدُ مَا فِي السَّمَاوَاتِ وَمَا فِي الْأَرْضِ مِنْ دَابَّةٍ وَالْمَلَائِكَةُ وَهُمْ لَا يَسْتَكْبِرُونَ

{ولله يسجد ما في السماوات وما في والأرض من دابة} أي نسمة تدب عليها أي تخضع له بما يراد منها، وغلب في الإتيان بما لا يعقل لكثرته {والملائكة} خصهم بالذكر تفضيلاً {وهم لا يستكبرون} يتكبرون عن عبادته.
