يَهْدِي إِلَى الرُّشْدِ


Say;

"It has been revealed to me that a group of Jinn listened. They said;

`Verily, we have heard a wonderful Recitation! It guides to the right path"'

And when We sent towards you a group of the Jinns listening to the Qur'an. (46;29)

We have already presented the Hadiths that have been narrated concerning this, so there is no need to repeat them here.
