(Continuing the incident of Hazrat Tufail bin ‘Amr (radhiyallahu ‘anhu) accepting Islam)

Hazrat Tufail (radhiyallahu ‘anhu) mentions:

Thereafter, I went to the Haram one day, and coincidentally, I saw Rasulullah (sallallahu ‘alaihi wasallam) standing before the Ka’bah, engaged in performing salaah. I then went close to him and stood near him. Though I did not wish to hear the words he was reciting, Allah Ta‘ala wished for me to hear some of His divine speech (i.e. the Qur’aan Majeed), and hence his words involuntarily entered my ears. On listening to them, I found them to be extremely excellent and filled with goodness.
