[17].Surah Al-Isra' [The Journey By Night]: Ayat 107

 also known as Surah Bani Israel [The Children of Israel]

 

Ayat 107. Say (O Muhammad to them): "Believe in it (the Qur'an) or do not believe (in it). Verily! Those who were given knowledge before it (the Jews and the Christians like 'Abdullah bin Salam and Salman Al-Farsi), when it is recited to them, fall down on their faces in humble prostration." 

[Tafseer] No one's belief or unbelief affects the beauty or grandeur of Allah's revelation. But those endowed with spiritual knowledge or insight know at once when they hear Allah's Holy Word, and fall down and adore Allah. Those endowed with knowledge include those who had received previous revelations and had kept themselves free from corrupt ideas.

Hazrat An-Nawwas bin Sam`an (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: I heard the Messenger of Allah  [SAWW](PBUH) saying, "The Qur'an and its people who applied it, will be brought on the Day of Resurrection preceded with Surat Al-Baqarah and Surat Al-`Imran arguing on behalf of those who applied them.''

[Muslim Book 04, Chapter 133, Hadith # 1759]. 

Lesson : as mentioned above in Surah Al-Isra Ayat 107. "when it is recited to them, fall down on their faces" This Hadith means that on the Day of Requital, the Qur'an, with Surat Al-Baqarah and Al-`Imran in the forefront, will intercede before Allah for those who used to recite and act upon them in the life of the world.
