اُردوEn
عَنْ أَبِي عَامِرِ الْأَشْعَرِيِّ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِنَحْوِهِ وَفِيهِ: ثُمَّ وَلَّى (أَيْ السَّائِلُ) فَلَمَّا لَمْ نَرَ طَرِيقَهُ بَعْدُ قَالَ (أَيْ النَّبِيُّ) صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ: ((سُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ! ثَلَاثًا، هَذَا جِبْرِيلُ جَاءَ لِيُعَلِّمَ النَّاسَ دِينَهُمْ، وَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ مَا جَاءَنِي قَطُّ إِلَّا وَأَنَا أَعْرِفُهُ إِلَّا أَنْ تَكُونَ هَذِهِ الْمَرَّةَ))
Sayyiduna Abu Amir Ash'ari (may Allah be pleased with him) also narrated a similar hadith from the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), except that in it is: Then that man who was asking questions went away. When we could no longer see any trace of him, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Subhan Allah! Subhan Allah! Subhan Allah! (i.e., how astonishing!) That was Jibril (peace be upon him) who came to teach people their religion. By the One in whose hand is my soul! Whenever he used to come to me, I would recognize him, except this time."
