Tafseer Ibn Kathir

So fall you down in prostration to Allah and worship Him.

meaning, with submission, sincerity, and Tawhid.

Al-Bukhari recorded that Abu Ma`mar said that Abdul-Warith said that Ayyub said that Ikrimah said that, Ibn Abbas said,

"The Prophet prostrated upon reciting An-Najam and the Muslims, idolators, Jinns and mankind who were present prostrated along with him."

Only Muslim collected this Hadith.

Imam Ahmad recorded that Al-Muttalib bin Abi Wada`ah said,

"While in Makkah, the Messenger of Allah once recited Surah An-Najam, then prostrated along with all those who were with him at the time. I raised my head, however, and I refused to prostrate."

Al-Muttalib had not embraced Islam yet, but ever since he became Muslim, he would never hear anyone recite this Surah until the end, without prostrating with whomever was prostrating after reciting it.

An-Nasa'i also collected this Hadith in the Book of Al-Bukhari, excluding prayer in his Sunan.

This is the end of the Tafsir of Surah An-Najm. All praise and thanks are due to Allah
