حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْعَبَّاسِ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ ثنا الرَّبِيعُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ ثنا أَسَدُ بْنُ مُوسَى ثنا اللَّيْثُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ حَدَّثَنِي ابْنُ شِهَابٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ كَعْبٍ عَنْ مَالِكٍ عَنْ أُسَيْدِ بْنِ حُضَيْرٍ

أَنَّهُ كَانَ يَقْرَأُ وَهُوَ عَلَى ظَهْرِ بَيْتِهِ وَهُوَ حَسَنُ الصَّوْتِ فَجَاءَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ بَيْنَا أقْرَأُ إِذْ غَشِيَنِي شَيْءٌ كَالسَّحَابِ وَالْمَرْأَةُ فِي الْبَيْتِ وَالْفَرَسُ فِي الدَّارِ فَتَخَوَّفْتُ أَنْ تَسْقُطَ الْمَرْأَةُ وَتَنْفَلِتَ الْفَرَسُ فَانْصَرَفْتُ فَقَالَ لَهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «اقْرَأْ يَا أُسَيْدُ فَإِنَّمَا هُوَ مَلَكٌ اسْتَمَعَ الْقُرْآنَ»

✧ that he used to recite while on the roof of his house, and he had a beautiful voice. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ came and he said: While I was reciting, something like a cloud overshadowed me, while the woman was in the house and the horse was in the courtyard. I feared lest the woman fall and the horse bolt, so I stopped. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to him: "Recite, O Usayd, for it was only an angel listening to the Qur'an."
