حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ حَدَّثَنَا جَرِيرٌ عَنِ الأَعْمَشِ عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنِ الأَسْوَدِ قَالَ قَالَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ
بَيْنَا نَحْنُ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فِي غَارٍ إِذْ نَزَلَتْ عَلَيْهِ وَالْمُرْسَلاَتِ فَتَلَقَّيْنَاهَا مِنْ فِيهِ وَإِنَّ فَاهُ لَرَطْبٌ بِهَا إِذْ خَرَجَتْ حَيَّةٌ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ عَلَيْكُمُ اقْتُلُوهَا قَالَ فَابْتَدَرْنَاهَا فَسَبَقَتْنَا قَالَ فَقَالَ وُقِيَتْ شَرَّكُمْ كَمَا وُقِيتُمْ شَرَّهَا

While we were with Messenger of Allah ﷺ in a cave, Surat "Wal Mursalat" was revealed to him and we received it directly from his mouth as soon as he had received the revelation. Suddenly a snake came out and Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Get at it and kill it!" We ran to kill it but it outstripped us. Allah's Apostle said, "It has escaped your evil, as you too, have escaped its."
