Reciting the Quran with Emotion

SUMMARY: The Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) was commanded by Allah to recite a verse of the Quran to Ubayy bin Ka'b, who was moved to tears upon hearing it.

Narrated Anas bin Malik: that the Messenger of Allah said to Ubayy bin Ka'b: "Indeed Allah ordered me to recite to you: Those who disbelieve were not going to. (98:1) He said: "And He named me?" He said: "Yes". So he wept.
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَشَّارٍ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، قَالَ سَمِعْتُ قَتَادَةَ، يُحَدِّثُ عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ، قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ لأُبَىِّ بْنِ كَعْبٍ ‏"‏ إِنَّ اللَّهَ أَمَرَنِي أَنْ أَقْرَأَ عَلَيْكَ ‏:‏ ‏(‏ لَمْ يَكُنِ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا ‏)‏ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ وَسَمَّانِي قَالَ ‏"‏ نَعَمْ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ فَبَكَى ‏.‏ قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ ‏.‏ وَقَدْ رُوِيَ عَنْ أُبَىِّ بْنِ كَعْبٍ قَالَ قَالَ لِيَ النَّبِيُّ فَذَكَرَ نَحْوَهُ
