Allaah the Most High says, describing His great book:
"Allaah has sent the best speech as a Book, its parts resemble each other, it repeats in goodness and truth throughout, the skins of those who fear their Lord shiver out of fear, and then their skins and hearts are at peace and soothed by the remembrance of Allaah. This is indeed the guidance of Allaah by whom He guides whomsoever He wishes." [az-Zumar:23]
{… best of speech}: meaning the most potent, most truthful and the most just is the Qur’aan.
{… book similar and resembling itself}: meaning similar in its miracles, guidance and particular characteristics that it resembles itself from part to part.
{… repeating itself}: repeating the laws and regulations, the admonition, the stories and etiquettes.
{… shudder and shiver}: that is, shiver and shudder from their roots.
{… at peace}: that they are at peace, tranquil and soft.
