What happened to the mountain when Allah manifested Himself to it

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
The Shaykh: Is there any established evidence for what is narrated about it? How much did the people of the mountain prostrate?

The Shaykh:
Allah knows best,
But when his Lord appeared to the mountain, He rendered it levelفَلَمَّا تَجَلَّىٰ رَبُّهُ لِلْجَبَلِ جَعَلَهُ دَكًّا
[Al-A'raf 7:143]
, meaning the mountain became dust; the mountain crumbled and turned to dust out of fear of Allah (Mighty and Majestic) and the greatness of Allah.
