* تفسير Tafsir al-Jalalayn

{ لَيْسُواْ سَوَآءً مِّنْ أَهْلِ ٱلْكِتَابِ أُمَّةٌ قَآئِمَةٌ يَتْلُونَ آيَاتِ ٱللَّهِ آنَآءَ ٱللَّيْلِ وَهُمْ يَسْجُدُونَ }

Yet they the People of the Scripture are not all alike equal; some of the People of the Scripture are a community upright with integrity adhering to the truth such as ‘Abd Allāh b. Salām may God be pleased with him and his companions who recite God’s verses in the watches of the night that is during its hours prostrating themselves performing prayer wa-hum yasjudūn ‘prostrating themselves’ is a circumstantial qualifier.
