عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ، قَالَ أَخْبَرَنَا مَعْمَرٌ قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنَا الزُّهْرِيُّ قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنِي عُرْوَةُ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ قَالَتْ:
أَوَّلُ مَا بُدِئَ بِهِ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ مِنَ الْوَحْيِ الرُّؤْيَا الصَّادِقَةُ، فَكَانَ لَا يَرَى رُؤْيَا إِلَّا جَاءَتْ مِثْلَ فَلَقِ الصُّبْحِ، ثُمَّ حُبِّبَ إِلَيْهِ الْخَلَاءُ، فَكَانَ يَأْتِي حِرَاءً فَيَتَحَنَّثُ فِيهِ - وَهُوَ التَّعَبُّدُ اللَّيَالِي ذَوَاتِ الْعَدَدِ - وَيَتَزَوَّدُ لِذَلِكَ، ثُمَّ يَرْجِعُ إِلَى خَدِيجَةَ فَيَتَزَوَّدُ لِذَلِكَ، ثُمَّ يَرْجِعُ إِلَى خَدِيجَةَ فَيَتَزَوَّدُ لِمِثْلِهَا، فَحِينَمَا جَاءَهُ الْحَقُّ، وَهُوَ فِي غَارِ حِرَاءٍ، فَجَاءَهُ الْمَلَكُ فِيهِ، فَقَالَ لَهُ: اقْرَأْ، يَقُولُ لِرَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ: اقْرَأْ. فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ قُلْتُ: " مَا أَنَا بِقَارِئٍ " فَأَخَذَنِي فَغَطَّنِي حَتَّى بَلَغَ مِنِّي الْجَهْدُ، ثُمَّ أَرْسَلَنِي فَقَالَ: اقْرَأْ فَقُلْتُ: " مَا أَنَا بِقَارِئٍ " فَأَخَذَنِي فَغَطَّنِي الثَّالِثَةَ، حَتَّى بَلَغَ مِنِّي الْجَهْدُ، ثُمَّ أَرْسَلَنِي فَقَالَ: ﴿اقْرَأْ بِاسْمِ رَبِّكَ الَّذِي خَلَقَ ﴾حَتَّى بَلَغَ ﴿مَا لَمْ يَعْلَمْ ﴾فَرَجَعَ بِهَا تَرْجُفُ بَوَادِرُهُ، حَتَّى دَخَلَ عَلَى خَدِيجَةَ فَقَالَ: " زَمِّلُونِي، زَمِّلُونِي " فَزَمَّلُوهُ حَتَّى ذَهَبَ عَنْهُ الرَّوْعُ، فَقَالَ لِخَدِيجَةَ: " مَا لِي وَأَخْبَرَهَا الْخَبَرَ " فَقَالَ: " قَدْ خَشِيتِ عَلَيَّ ؟ " فَقَالَتْ: كَلَّا، وَاللهِ لَا يُخْزِيكَ اللهُ أَبَدًا إِنَّكَ لَتَصِلُ الرَّحِمَ وَتَصْدُقُ الْحَدِيثَ، وَتَقْرِي الضَّيْفَ، وَتُعِينُ عَلَى نَوَائِبِ الْحَقِّ، ثُمَّ انْطَلَقَتْ بِهِ خَدِيجَةُ حَتَّى أَتَتْ بِهِ وَرَقَةَ بْنَ نَوْفَلِ بْنِ رَاشِدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْعُزَّى بْنِ قُصَيٍّ، وَهُوَ ابْنُ عَمِّ خَدِيجَةَ، أَخُو أَبِيهَا، وَكَانَ تَنَصَّرَ فِي الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ، وَكَانَ يَكْتُبُ الْكِتَابَ الْعَرَبِيَّ، فَكَتَبَ بِالْعَرَبِيَّةِ مِنَ الْإِنْجِيلِ مَا شَاءَ اللهُ أَنْ يَكْتُبَ، وَكَانَ شَيْخًا كَبِيرًا قَدْ عَمِيَ فَقَالَتْ خَدِيجَةُ: أَيِ ابْنَ عَمِّي اسْمَعْ مِنَ ابْنِ أَخِيكَ فَقَالَ وَرَقَةُ: ابْنَ أَخِي مَا تَرَى ؟ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ " مَا رَأَى " فَقَالَ وَرَقَةُ: هَذَا النَّامُوسُ الَّذِي أُنْزِلَ عَلَى مُوسَى عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ، يَا لَيْتَنِي فِيهَا جَذَعًا، حِينَ يُخْرِجُكَ قَوْمُكَ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ: " أَوَمُخْرِجِيَّ هُمْ ؟ " فَقَالَ وَرَقَةُ: نَعَمْ لَمْ يَأْتِ أَحَدٌ بِمَا أَتَيْتَ بِهِ إِلَّا عُودِيَ، وَأُوذِيَ، وَإِنْ يُدْرِكْنِي يَوْمُكَ أَنْصُرْكَ نَصْرًا مُؤَزَّرًا، ثُمَّ لَمْ يَنْشَبْ وَرَقَةُ أَنْ تُوُفِّيَ، وَفَتَرَ الْوَحْيُ فَتْرَةً، حَتَّى حَزِنَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فِيمَا بَلَغَنَا حُزْنًا بَدَا مِنْهُ أَشَدَّ حُزْنًا غَدَا مِنْهُ مِرَارًا كَيْ يَتَرَدَّى مِنْ رُءُوسِ شَوَاهِقِ الْجِبَالِ، فَلَمَّا ارْتَقَى بِذِرْوَةِ جَبَلٍ تَبَدَّى لَهُ جِبْرِيلُ عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ فَقَالَ: يَا مُحَمَّدُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ حَقًّا فَيَسْكُنُ لِذَلِكَ جَأْشُهُ وَتَقِرُّ نَفْسُهُ، فَرَجَعَ، فَإِذَا طَالَتْ عَلَيْهِ فَتْرَةُ الْوَحْيِ عَادَ لِمِثْلِ ذَلِكَ، فَإِذَا رَقَى بِذِرْوَةِ جَبَلٍ تَبَدَّى لَهُ جِبْرِيلُ عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ فَقَالَ لَهُ مِثْلَ ذَلِكَ.
Translation
✧ The first thing that began the revelation to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ was truthful dreams; he would not see a dream except that it came like the break of dawn. Then solitude was made beloved to him, and he would go to Hira and practice tahannuth there—that is, worship for a number of nights—and he would take provisions for that. Then he would return to Khadijah and take provisions for that again, then he would return to Khadijah and take provisions for the like of it. When the truth came to him while he was in the cave of Hira, the angel came to him and said: “Read.” He said to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ: “Read.” The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: I said: “I am not a reader.” He took me and pressed me until it exhausted me, then he released me and said: “Read.” I said: “I am not a reader.” He took me and pressed me a second time until it exhausted me, then he released me and said: “Read.” I said: “I am not a reader.” He took me and pressed me a third time until it exhausted me, then he released me and said: “Read in the name of your Lord who created” until he reached “what he did not know.” He returned with his heart trembling, until he entered upon Khadijah and said: “Wrap me up, wrap me up.” They wrapped him until the terror left him. He said to Khadijah: “What is wrong with me?” and he told her the news. He said: “I feared for myself.” She said: “No, by Allah, Allah will never disgrace you. You maintain kinship ties, speak the truth, honor the guest, and help in times of hardship.” Then Khadijah took him and brought him to Waraqah b. Nawfal b. Rashid b. Abd al-Uzza b. Qusayy, who was the cousin of Khadijah, the brother of her father. He had become a Christian in the pre-Islamic era, and he wrote the Arabic script, and he wrote in Arabic from the Gospel as much as Allah willed. He was an old man who had gone blind. Khadijah said: “O cousin, listen to your nephew.” Waraqah said: “Nephew, what do you see?” The Messenger of Allah ﷺ told him what he had seen. Waraqah said: “This is the Namus who was sent down to Moses ﷺ. Would that I were young when your people drive you out.” The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: “Will they drive me out?” Waraqah said: “Yes, no one has come with what you have come with except that he was opposed and harmed. If I live to see your day, I will support you with strong support.” Then Waraqah died soon after. The revelation paused for a period, until the Messenger of Allah ﷺ grieved, as we have heard, so much that he would go out several times wanting to throw himself from the tops of high mountains. When he climbed to the top of a mountain, Gabriel ﷺ appeared to him and said: “O Muhammad, you are truly the Messenger of Allah.” Then his heart would calm and his soul would be at ease, and he would return. If the pause of revelation became long for him, he would go back to something like that, and when he climbed to the top of a mountain, Gabriel ﷺ appeared to him and said the same thing.
