I felt strange during Quran recitation-has anyone else experienced this?

Assalamu alaikum. I'm not Muslim, but out of curiosity I listened to Quran recitation on YouTube. While listening, I felt uneasy and had odd sensations in my legs and body-hard to explain. I'm not sure if it was just anxiety, a coincidence, or something more. Has anyone, maybe even born Muslims, felt something unusual when hearing recitations for the first time? I'm asking respectfully and genuinely want to understand.

The Quran is not like any other book. Its recitation has power-jinns even felt it. Your unease might be the effect of hearing Allah's words without spiritual preparation. Read the translation too.

Wa alaikum assalam. Yeah bro, it hits different. Even born Muslims sometimes feel a shiver or goosebumps when the Quran is recited with proper tajweed. Could be a sign your fitrah is waking up.

Not weird at all. Happened to me before I reverted. It's like your soul recognizes the truth but your mind is catching up. Keep listening with an open heart.

lol I get restless legs sometimes too, but when I focus on the meaning it calms down. Might just be your body reacting to something unfamiliar. Make dua for clarity.

Bro, I cried the first time I heard Surah Ar-Rahman. Couldn't explain why. Now I know it was hidayah. Maybe you're being called to Islam.
