أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو يَعْلَى حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مَعْمَرٍ حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ فُضَيْلٍ عَنْ عُمَارَةَ بْنِ الْقَعْقَاعِ عَنْ أَبِي زُرْعَةَ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ
جَلَسَ جِبْرِيلُ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَنَظَرَ إِلَى السَّمَاءِ فَإِذَا مَلَكٌ يَنْزِلُ فَقَالَ لَهُ جِبْرِيلُ هَذَا الْمَلَكُ مَا نَزَلَ مُنْذُ خُلِقَ قَبْلَ السَّاعَةِ فَلَمَّا نَزَلَ قَالَ يَا مُحَمَّدُ أَرْسَلَنِي إِلَيْكَ رَبُّكَ أَمَلَكًا جَعَلَكَ لَهُمْ أَمْ عَبْدًا رَسُولًا؟ فَقَالَ لَهُ جِبْرِيلُ تَوَاضَعْ لِرَبِّكَ يَا مُحَمَّدُ فَقَالَ ﷺ «لَا بَلْ عَبْدًا رَسُولًا»

✧ Gabriel sat down with the Prophet ﷺ and looked at the sky, and behold an angel was descending. Gabriel said to him, "This angel has not descended since he was created before this hour." When he descended, he said, "O Muhammad, your Lord sent me to you: has He made you a king for them or a servant messenger?" Gabriel said to him, "Humble yourself to your Lord, O Muhammad." He ﷺ said, "No, rather a servant messenger."
