حَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَشَّارٍ حَدَّثَنَا غُنْدَرٌ حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ سَمِعْتُ الْبَرَاءَ بْنَ عَازِبٍ ؓ

قَرَأَ رَجُلٌ الْكَهْفَ وَفِي الدَّارِ الدَّابَّةُ فَجَعَلَتْ تَنْفِرُ فَسَلَّمَ فَإِذَا ضَبَابَةٌ أَوْ سَحَابَةٌ غَشِيَتْهُ فَذَكَرَهُ لِلنَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَقَالَ اقْرَأْ فُلاَنُ فَإِنَّهَا السَّكِينَةُ نَزَلَتْ لِلْقُرْآنِ أَوْ تَنَزَّلَتْ لِلْقُرْآنِ

A man recited Surat al-Kahf ˹in his prayer˺ and in the house there was a ˹riding˺ animal which got spooked. He said taslim (finished his prayer), and a mist or a cloud hovered over him. He informed the Prophet ﷺ of that and he said, "O so-and-so! recite! for this ˹mist or cloud˺ was a sign of Sakinah (peace) descending due to the recitation of Quran."
