Sūrat Al-Baqarah and Āl‘Imrān shall be in front of it.” An-Nawwās said: “The Messenger ofAllāh ﷺ stated three parablesabout them which I have not sinceforgotten, he said: “They will comeas if they are two shades betweenwhich there is illumination, or as ifthey are two shady clouds, or as ifthey are shadows of lines of birdsarguing on behalf of their people.”(Sahih)
There is something on this topicfrom Buraidah and Abū Umāmah.
[Abū ‘Eisā said:] This Hadīth is[Hasan Gharīb [from this route]].
According to the people ofknowledge, the meaning of thisHadīth is that the rewards of havingrecited them shall come. This ishow some of the people ofknowledge explained this Hadīth
and similar Aḥādīth regarding the coming of the rewards for reciting the Qur'an. And in the Hadīth of An-Nawwās bin Sam'ān from the Prophet ﷺ is what proves what they explained since the Prophet ﷺ said: "And its people who acted according to it in the world." So in this there is proof that it refers to the coming of the reward for the actions.'

Commentary
According to this Hadīth, these particular two Sūrah will argue in favor of a person and defend him and get their reward for reciting them; they also have the distinction and quality that on the Day of Judgement, when a person will be in extreme need of shade, the reward for reciting these two Sūrah will provide shade in the form of a canopy, cloud or like the wings of the birds to those who acted accordingly.
