قَالَ ابْنُ شِهَابٍ وَأَخْبَرَنِي أَبُو سَلَمَةَ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ أَنَّ جَابِرَ بْنَ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ الأَنْصَارِيَّ قَالَ وَهُوَ يُحَدِّثُ عَنْ فَتْرَةِ الْوَحْىِ فَقَالَ فِي حَدِيثِهِ:

«بَيْنَا أَنَا أَمْشِي، إِذْ سَمِعْتُ صَوْتًا مِنَ السَّمَاءِ، فَرَفَعْتُ بَصَرِي، فَإِذَا الْمَلَكُ الَّذِي جَاءَنِي بِحِرَاءٍ جَالِسٌ عَلَى كُرْسِيٍّ بَيْنَ السَّمَاءِ وَالأَرْضِ۔ فَرُعِبْتُ مِنْهُ فَرَجَعْتُ فَقُلْتُ زَمِّلُونِي! فَأَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ تَعَالَى {يَا أَيُّهَا الْمُدَّثِّرُ قُمْ فَأَنْذِرْ}» إِلَى قَوْلِهِ «{وَالرُّجْزَ فَاهْجُرْ} فَحَمِيَ الْوَحْىُ وَتَتَابَعَ۔»

as he was narrating about the period of Wahī (Revelation): "While I was walking, ˹suddenly˺ I heard a voice from the sky. I looked up and saw the same Angel who had visited me at the cave of Ḥirāʾ sitting on a chair between the sky and the earth. I got afraid of him, came back ˹home˺ and said, 'Cover me!' Then Allah ﷻ revealed: 'O you who covers himself [with a garment]' Arise and warn.' until His statement 'And idolatory, avoid.' (Muddaththir 74:1-5) After this the revelation started coming strongly, frequently and regularly."

  • قَالَ ابْنُ شِهَابٍ وَأَخْبَرَنِي أَبُو سَلَمَةَ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، أَنَّ جَابِرَ بْنَ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ الأَنْصَارِيَّ، قَالَ ـ وَهُوَ يُحَدِّثُ عَنْ فَتْرَةِ الْوَحْىِ، فَقَالَ ـ فِي حَدِيثِهِ " بَيْنَا أَنَا أَمْشِي، إِذْ سَمِعْتُ صَوْتًا، مِنَ السَّمَاءِ، فَرَفَعْتُ بَصَرِي فَإِذَا الْمَلَكُ الَّذِي جَاءَنِي بِحِرَاءٍ جَالِسٌ عَلَى كُرْسِيٍّ بَيْنَ السَّمَاءِ وَالأَرْضِ، فَرُعِبْتُ مِنْهُ، فَرَجَعْتُ فَقُلْتُ زَمِّلُونِي. فَأَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ تَعَالَى [quran sura="74" aya_start="1" aya_end="5"]{يَا أَيُّهَا الْمُدَّثِّرُ * قُمْ فَأَنْذِرْ}[/quran] إِلَى قَوْلِهِ [quran sura="74" aya_start="5" aya_end="5"]{وَالرُّجْزَ فَاهْجُرْ}[/quran] فَحَمِيَ الْوَحْىُ وَتَتَابَعَ ". تَابَعَهُ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ يُوسُفَ وَأَبُو صَالِحٍ. وَتَابَعَهُ هِلاَلُ بْنُ رَدَّادٍ عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ. وَقَالَ يُونُسُ وَمَعْمَرٌ " بَوَادِرُهُ

    machine translationIbn Shihāb said: And Abū Salamah b. ʿAbd al-Raḥmān informed me that Jābir b. ʿAbdullāh al-Anṣārī said, while he was speaking about the pause in revelation (fatrat al-waḥy), in his narration: "While I was walking, I heard a voice from the sky. I raised my gaze, and there was the angel who had come to me at Ḥirāʾ, sitting on a chair between the sky and the earth. I was terrified of him, so I returned and said: 'Wrap me up!' Then Allah the Exalted revealed {يَا أَيُّهَا الْمُدَّثِّرُ * قُمْ فَأَنْذِرْ} up to His saying {وَالرُّجْزَ فَاهْجُرْ}. Then the revelation intensified and followed in succession." ʿAbdullāh b. Yūsuf and Abū Ṣāliḥ corroborated him (tābaʿahu). Hilāl b. Raddād also corroborated him, from al-Zuhrī. And Yūnus and Maʿmar said: "his bawādir"
