Sura 17
Aya 107
107
قُل آمِنوا بِهِ أَو لا تُؤمِنوا ۚ إِنَّ الَّذينَ أوتُوا العِلمَ مِن قَبلِهِ إِذا يُتلىٰ عَلَيهِم يَخِرّونَ لِلأَذقانِ سُجَّدًا

Yusuf Ali

Say: “Whether ye believe in it or not, it is true that those who were given1 knowledge beforehand, when it is recited to them, fall down on their faces in humble prostration,
  • No one’s belief or unbelief affects the beauty or grandeur of God’s revelation. But those endowed with spiritual knowledge or insight know at once when they hear God’s Holy Word, and fall down and adore God. Those endowed with knowledge include those who had received previous revelations and had kept themselves free from corrupt ideas.
