Whether people believe in the Qur'an or not is a good or a sin for or against them. This is also their personal business. However, Allah never stops giving examples to people, never stops bringing examples. In this respect, since Allah knows what His creatures desire and want, He has given them these desires and wishes as their destiny. (Whether you believe in the Qur'an or not, it is a fact that when the Qur'an is recited to those who were given knowledge before you, they immediately fall on their faces in prostration) According to this verse, those who had previously read the Torah, the Psalms and the Gospel, When the Holy Qur'an is recited, like a ray of light from a lamp, they immediately realize that the Holy Qur'an is the Word of Allah, and they fall prostrate on their faces in reverence to Allah (swt) for His Verses. Allah (swt) is informing us of His existence, that the Qur'an is true, and that the Prophet (s.a.w.) is the servant and messenger of Allah (swt) by giving us examples of each other.

What is said in the video
Surah Al-Isra, verse 107: Say: Whether you believe in it or do not believe. Believe or do not believe. In what? In the Quran. In what? In the Prophet. Believe or do not believe. Why? When Allah Almighty, (?), made the covenant with us in the primordial pact, He did not tell us, under compulsion, by force or out of some necessity: obey Me. He left us free in our own will. He said: if you wish, know Me; if you wish, do not. Accordingly I will write your character, and accordingly I will call you to account, He said. Yes. Well, whether you believe in it or do not believe, it is a fact that those given knowledge before this, when that Quran is recited to them, immediately fall on their faces in prostration.
Those given knowledge before this, that is, those who before the Quran believed in the Psalms, the Torah and the Gospel, understand when the Quran is recited that it is the truth, it says. They would immediately fall on their faces in prostration. Yes.
Let us see, is this a verse of prostration? Surah Al-Isra, verse 107. Ibrahim, Al-Hijr, An-Nahl, An-Nahl, Al-Isra,
107, no. It is not a verse of prostration. The prostration is the one below, the 10th, 110th verse. (?) verse, the verse of prostration. We all prostrate together. Yes. Verse one hundred and seven: Allah Almighty has left people free in their will. For this reason He has written for each person their own wish as their destiny. Let people believe in the Quran or not. Whether people believe in the Quran or not is, for or against them, their reward or sin. And this concerns people personally. But Allah never gives up giving people examples and bringing illustrations. For this reason, since Allah knows what the people He created desire and what they want, He has given them these desires and wishes as their destiny.
Believe in the Holy Quran or do not believe. But it is a fact that when the Quran is recited to those given knowledge before you, they immediately fall on their faces in prostration. According to this verse, those who previously read the Torah, the Psalms and the Gospel, when the Holy Quran is recited, like a beam of light from the same lamp, at once understand that the Holy Quran is the word of Allah. And before Allah's verses, in reverence to Allah Almighty, they fall on their faces in prostration. Thus Allah Almighty, by giving us examples through one another, makes known to us His own existence, that the Quran is the truth, that the Prophet (peace be upon him) is Allah Almighty's servant and messenger.
He wants us to believe in this truth and have faith in it. For this reason Allah Almighty wants to bring people out of darkness into brightness, out of gloom into light. For this, showing us the truth and the straight path, He invites us to salvation.
