وَقَالَ الْحَارِثُ : حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحِيمِ بْنُ وَاقِدٍ الْخُرَاسَانِيُّ ، ثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ عَمْرٍو ، ثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ رَافِعٍ ، عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ أَسْلَمَ ، أَوْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ الْمُنْكَدِرِ - الشَّكُّ مِنْ حَمَّادٍ - قَالَ : قَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لِعَلِيٍّ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ : يَا عَلِيُّ ، خُذِ الْبَابَ فَلَا يَدْخُلَنَّ عَلَيَّ أَحَدٌ ، فَإِنَّ عِنْدِي زَوْرًا مِنَ الْمَلَائِكَةِ اسْتَأْذَنُوا رَبَّهُمْ أَنْ يَزُورُونِي " فَأَخَذَ عَلِيٌّ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ الْبَابَ ، وَجَاءَ عُمَرُ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ فَاسْتَأْذَنَ ، فَقَالَ : يَا عَلِيُّ ، اسْتَأْذِنْ لِي عَلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَقَالَ عَلِيٌّ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ : لَيْسَ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِذْنٌ ، فَرَجَعَ عُمَرُ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ ، وَظَنَّ أَنَّ ذَلِكَ مِنْ سَخْطَةٍ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَلَمْ يَصْبِرْ عُمَرُ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ أَنْ رَجَعَ ، فَقَالَ : اسْتَأْذِنْ لِي رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَقَالَ : لَيْسَ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِذْنٌ . فَقَالَ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ : وَلِمَ ؟ قَالَ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ : لِأَنَّ زَوْرًا مِنَ الْمَلَائِكَةِ عِنْدَهُ ، وَاسْتَأْذَنُوا رَبَّهُمْ أَنْ يَزُورُوهُ ، قَالَ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ : وَكَمْ هُمْ يَا عَلِيُّ ؟ قَالَ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ : ثَلَاثُمِائَةٍ وَسِتُّونَ مَلَكًا ، ثُمَّ أَمَرَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِفَتْحِ الْبَابِ ، فَذَكَرَ ذَلِكَ عُمَرُ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ لِرَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَقَالَ : يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ ، إِنَّهُ أَخْبَرَنِي أَنَّ زَوْرًا مِنَ الْمَلَائِكَةِ اسْتَأْذَنُوا رَبَّهُمْ أَنْ يَزُورُوكَ ، وَأَخْبَرَنِي يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أَنَّ عِدَّتَهُمْ ثَلَاثُمِائَةٍ وَسِتُّونَ مَلَكًا ، فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لِعَلِيٍّ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ : " أَنْتَ أَخْبَرْتَ بِالزَّوْرِ ؟ " قَالَ : نَعَمْ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ ، قَالَ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " فَأَخْبَرْتَهُ بِعِدَّتِهِمْ ؟ " قَالَ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ : نَعَمْ ، قَالَ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " فَكَمْ هُمْ يَا عَلِيُّ ؟ " قَالَ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ : ثَلَاثُمِائَةٍ وَسِتُّونَ مَلَكًا ، قَالَ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " وَكَيْفَ عَلِمْتَ ذَلِكَ ؟ " قَالَ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ : سَمِعْتُ ثَلَاثَمِائَةٍ وَسِتِّينَ نَغْمَةً فَعَلِمْتُ أَنَّهُمْ ثَلَاثُمِائَةٍ وَسِتُّونَ مَلَكًا ، فَضَرَبَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَلَى صَدْرِهِ ، ثُمَّ قَالَ : يَا عَلِيُّ ، زَادَكَ اللهُ إِيمَانًا وَعِلْمًا .
It is narrated from Zayd bin Aslam or Muhammad bin al-Munkadir (may Allah have mercy on them both) (the doubt is from the narrator) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said to Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him): "O Ali! Guard the door and do not let anyone enter upon me, for at this moment a group of angels is with me as visitors, who sought permission from their Lord to visit me." So Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) took charge of the door. Meanwhile Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) came and asked permission to enter, and Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "There is absolutely no permission (to enter) from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) at this time." Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) turned back, thinking that perhaps this restriction was due to some displeasure of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), but he could not remain patient for long and came back again and said: "Seek permission for me from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) to enter." He gave the same reply again: "There is no permission from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) at this time." Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) asked: "But why?" He replied: "Because a group of angels has come to him (peace and blessings be upon him), who sought permission from their Lord to visit him (peace and blessings be upon him)." Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) asked: "O Ali! How many are they?" He replied: "They are three hundred and sixty angels." Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) ordered the door to be opened, and Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him), mentioning this to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), said: "O Messenger of Allah! He told me that a group of angels sought permission from their Lord to visit you, and, O Messenger of Allah, he also told me that their number is three hundred and sixty." Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) asked Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him): "Did you tell him about the coming of the angels?" He said: "Yes, O Messenger of Allah!" He (peace and blessings be upon him) asked: "And did you also tell him their number?" He said: "Yes." He (peace and blessings be upon him) asked again: "O Ali! Tell me, how many are they?" He replied: "They are three hundred and sixty angels." He (peace and blessings be upon him) asked: "How did you come to know this?" He said: "I heard three hundred and sixty different voices and melodies of theirs, from which I knew that they were three hundred and sixty angels." Hearing this, the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) struck his blessed hand upon his chest and said: "May Allah Almighty increase you further in faith and knowledge."
Imam al-Harith recorded this narration in his Musnad (Bughyat al-Bahith: 928); however, its chain contains narrators such as Hammad bin Amr al-Nasibi and Isma'il bin Rafi', who have been declared da'if (weak) and matruk (abandoned), because of which this narration is technically severely weak.
