Hadith 58
Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) says: I was with the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) when a Jew came to him and said: O Abul Qasim (peace and blessings be upon him)! What is the soul? Then Allah Almighty revealed this verse: "And they ask you concerning the soul. Say: The soul is from the command of my Lord."
