Riyad as-Salihin 1008 (Book 8, Hadith 18) #37497
The Power of Reciting the Quran

SUMMARY: The Prophet (ﷺ) asked Ibn Mas'ud to recite the Quran to him, and when he heard a particular verse, he was moved to tears.

Ibn Mas'ud (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Prophet said to me, "Recite the Qur'an to me". I said: "O Messenger of Allah! Shall I recite it to you when it was revealed to you?" He said, "I like to hear it from others". Then I began to recite Surat An-Nisa'. When I reached the Ayah: 'How will it be when We shall bring a witness from every people and bring you as a witness against them?' (Having heard it) he said, "Enough! Enough!" When I looked at him, I found his eyes were overflowing with tears. Al- Bukhari and Muslim.
