حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ طَرِيفٍ , حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ , عَنْ الْأَعْمَشِ , عَنْ أَبِي سُفْيَانَ , عَنْ أَنَسٍ , قَالَ : جَاءَ جِبْرِيلُ عَلَيْهِ السَّلَام , ذَاتَ يَوْمٍ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ , وَهُوَ جَالِسٌ حَزِينٌ ؟ قَدْ خُضِّبَ بِالدِّمَاءِ قَدْ ضَرَبَهُ بَعْضُ أَهْلِ مَكَّةَ , فَقَالَ : مَا لَكَ ؟ قَالَ : " فَعَلَ بِي هَؤُلَاءِ وَفَعَلُوا " , قَالَ : أَتُحِبُّ أَنْ أُرِيَكَ آيَةً ؟ قَالَ : " نَعَمْ أَرِنِي " , فَنَظَرَ إِلَى شَجَرَةٍ مِنْ وَرَاءِ الْوَادِي , قَالَ : ادْعُ تِلْكَ الشَّجَرَةَ فَدَعَاهَا , فَجَاءَتْ تَمْشِي حَتَّى قَامَتْ بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ , قَالَ : قُلْ لَهَا فَلْتَرْجِعْ , فَقَالَ لَهَا : فَرَجَعَتْ حَتَّى عَادَتْ إِلَى مَكَانِهَا , فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " حَسْبِي " .
´It was narrated that Anas said:` “One day, Jibril (as) came to the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) when he was sitting in a sorrowful state with his face soaked with blood, because some of the people of Makkah had struck him. He said: ‘What is the matter with you?’ He said: ‘These people did such and such to me.’ He said: ‘Would you like me to show you a sign?’ He said: ‘Yes, show me.’ He looked at a tree on the far side of the valley and said: ‘Call that tree.’ So he called it, and it came walking until it stood before him. He said: ‘Tell it to go back.’ So he told it, and it went back to its place. Then the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: ‘That is sufficient for me.’”
