Muslims are only allowed to bow and prostrate to God because we consider such things acts of worship, and Islam is a very monotheistic religion.
This is a problem in Japan, where bowing is considered a common greeting.
How should I handle greetings when unable to bow, without seeming disrespectful?

There's nothing to "decline". Just don't bow.
