وَعَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ : بَيْنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - وَمَعَهُ جِبْرِيلُ - عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ - يُنَاجِيهِ ، إِذِ انْشَقَّ أُفُقُ السَّمَاءِ ، فَأَقْبَلَ جِبْرِيلُ يَدْنُو مِنَ الْأَرْضِ وَيَتَمَايَلُ ، فَإِذَا مَلَكٌ قَدْ مَثُلَ بَيْنَ يَدَيِ النَّبِيِّ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - فَقَالَ : " يَا مُحَمَّدُ ، يَأْمُرُكَ رَبُّكَ أَنْ تَخْتَارَ بَيْنَ نَبِيٍّ عَبْدٍ أَوْ مَلِكٍ نَبِيٍّ ؟ فَأَشَارَ جِبْرِيلُ إِلَيَّ بِيَدِهِ : أَنْ تَوَاضَعْ ، فَعَرَفْتُ أَنَّهُ لِي نَاصِحٌ ، فَقُلْتُ : عَبْدٌ نَبِيٌّ ، فَعَرَجَ ذَلِكَ الْمَلَكُ إِلَى السَّمَاءِ ، فَقُلْتُ : يَا جِبْرِيلُ ، قَدْ كُنْتُ أَرَدْتُ أَنْ أَسْأَلَكَ عَنْ هَذَا ، فَرَأَيْتُ مِنْ حَالِكَ مَا شَغَلَنِي عَنِ الْمَسْأَلَةِ ، فَمَنْ هَذَا يَا جِبْرِيلُ ؟ قَالَ : هَذَا إِسْرَافِيلُ خَلَقَهُ اللَّهُ يَوْمَ خَلَقَهُ بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ صَافًّا قَدَمَيْهِ ، لَا يَرْفَعُ طَرْفَهُ ، بَيْنَهُ وَبَيْنَ الرَّبِّ سَبْعُونَ نُورًا ، مَا مِنْهَا نُورٌ يَكَادُ يَدْنُو مِنْهُ إِلَّا احْتَرَقَ ، بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ لَوْحٌ ، فَإِذَا أَذِنَ اللَّهُ فِي شَيْءٍ فِي السَّمَاءِ أَوْ فِي الْأَرْضِ ارْتَفَعَ ذَلِكَ فَضَرَبَ جَبْهَتَهُ فَيَنْظُرُ ، فَإِنْ كَانَ ذَلِكَ مِنْ عَمَلِي أَمَرَنِي بِهِ ، وَإِنْ كَانَ مِنْ عَمَلِ مِيكَائِيلَ أَمَرَهُ بِهِ ، وَإِنْ كَانَ مِنْ عَمَلِ مَلَكِ الْمَوْتِ أَمَرَهُ بِهِ . قُلْتُ : يَا جِبْرِيلُ ، عَلَى أَيِّ شَيْءٍ أَنْتَ ؟ قَالَ : عَلَى الرِّيحِ وَالْجُنُودِ . قُلْتُ : عَلَى أَيِّ شَيْءٍ مِيكَائِيلُ ؟ قَالَ : عَلَى النَّبَاتِ وَالْقَطْرِ . قُلْتُ : عَلَى أَيِّ شَيْءٍ مَلَكُ الْمَوْتِ ؟ قَالَ : عَلَى قَبْضِ الْأَنْفُسِ ، وَمَا ظَنَنْتُهُ إِلَّا لِقِيَامِ السَّاعَةِ . وَمَا الَّذِي رَأَيْتَ مِنِّي إِلَّا خَوْفًا مِنْ قِيَامِ السَّاعَةِ " .
رَوَاهُ الطَّبَرَانِيُّ وَفِيهِ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ أَبِي لَيْلَى ، وَقَدْ وَثَّقَهُ جَمَاعَةٌ ، وَلَكِنَّهُ سَيِّئُ الْحِفْظِ . وَبَقِيَّةُ رِجَالِهِ ثِقَاتٌ .

Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) narrates: Once the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was seated, and Sayyiduna Jibril (peace be upon him) was with him, talking with him. Meanwhile the horizon of the sky split open, and Sayyiduna Jibril (peace be upon him) began drawing close to the earth and swaying this way and that. Meanwhile an angel came and stood before the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). He said: O Sayyiduna Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him)! Your Lord has given you the choice to adopt one of two forms: becoming a "servant" prophet or becoming a "king" prophet. Then Sayyiduna Jibril (peace be upon him) signalled to me with his hand that I should adopt humility. I knew that he was my well-wisher, so I said: I would wish to become a "servant" prophet. Then that angel rose up towards the sky. I said: O Jibril! I had intended to ask you about this, but the state I saw you in kept me from asking. O Jibril! Who was this? Jibril said: This was Sayyiduna Israfil (peace be upon him). On the day Allah Almighty created him, He created him standing before Him with his feet aligned; he has never raised his gaze. Between him and his Lord there are seventy lights, and not one of these lights is such that he could draw near it without being burned. Before him there is a Tablet. When Allah Almighty gives a command concerning anything in the heavens or on the earth, that Tablet rises and strikes his forehead, and he looks; if that task concerns me, he directs me to it; if it concerns Mika'il, he directs him to it; and if it is a task concerning the Angel of Death, he directs him to it. I said: O Jibril! Over what are you appointed? He replied: Over the wind and the armies (of angels). I said: Over what is Mika'il appointed? He replied: Over vegetation and rain. I asked: Over what is the Angel of Death appointed? He replied: Over taking souls. And I did not think that he (that angel) had come down for anything but the establishment of the Hour; and the state you saw me in was only out of fear that the Hour was about to be established.
