حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنَا دَاوُدُ عَنْ عَامِرٍ عَنْ مَسْرُوقٍ قَالَ
كُنْتُ مُتَّكِئًا عِنْدَ عَائِشَةَ فَقَالَتْ: يَا أَبَا عَائِشَةَ، أَنَا أَوَّلُ مَنْ سَأَلَ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ عَنْ هَذِهِ، قَالَ: ذَلِكَ جِبْرِيلُ لَمْ أَرَهُ فِي صُورَتِهِ الَّتِي خُلِقَ فِيهَا إِلَّا مَرَّتَيْنِ، رَأَيْتُهُ مُنْهَبِطًا مِنَ السَّمَاءِ سَادًّا عِظَمُ خَلْقِهِ مَا بَيْنَ السَّمَاءِ وَالْأَرْضِ

✧ I was reclining with 'A'ishah, and she said: 'O Abu 'A'ishah, I was the first to ask the Messenger of Allah ﷺ about this. He said: "That is Jibril. I did not see him in his form in which he was created except twice. I saw him descending from the heaven, the greatness of his form filling what is between the heaven and the earth."'

وهذا القدر أخرجه مسلم كما قال الترمذي وأظن الزائد بعده مدرجا في الخبر فإن الراوي له عن داود لم يكن بالحافظ
