Al-Mu'jam al-Awsat 5125 — from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas'ud
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ هِشَامٍ الْمُسْتَمْلِيُّ قَالَ : نَا بِشْرُ بْنُ الْوَلِيدِ الْقَاضِي قَالَ : نَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ طَلْحَةَ بْنِ مُصَرِّفٍ ، عَنِ الْوَلِيدِ بْنِ قَيْسٍ ، عَنْ إِسْحَاقَ بْنِ أَبِي الْكَهْتَلَةِ ، قَالَ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ طَلْحَةَ : أَظُنُّهُ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لَمْ يَرَ جِبْرِيلَ فِي صُورَتِهِ إِلَّا مَرَّتَيْنِ : أَمَّا مَرَّةٌ فَإِنَّهُ سَأَلَهُ أَنْ يُرِيَهُ نَفْسَهُ فِي صُورَتِهِ ، فَأَرَاهُ فَسَدَّ الْأُفُقَ ، وَأَمَّا الثَّانِيَةُ فَإِنَّهُ كَانَ مَعَهُ إِذْ صَعِدَ فِي قَوْلِهِ : دَنَا فَتَدَلَّى فَكَانَ قَابَ قَوْسَيْنِ أَوْ أَدْنَى فَأَوْحَى إِلَى عَبْدِهِ مَا أَوْحَى فَلَمَّا حَسَّ جِبْرِيلُ رَبَّهُ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى عَادَ فِي صُورَتِهِ ، فَذَلِكَ قَوْلُهُ : وَلَقَدْ رَآهُ نَـزْلَةً أُخْرَى عِنْدَ سِدْرَةِ الْمُنْتَهَى عِنْدَهَا جَنَّةُ الْمَأْوَى إِلَى قَوْلِهِ : لَقَدْ رَأَى مِنْ آيَاتِ رَبِّهِ الْكُبْرَى قَالَ : خَلْقُ جِبْرِيلَ عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ .
لَمْ يُرْوَ هَذَا الْحَدِيثُ عَنْ إِسْحَاقَ بْنِ أَبِي الْكَهْتَلَةِ إِلَّا بِهَذَا الْإِسْنَادِ ، تَفَرَّدَ بِهِ : مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ طَلْحَةَ بْنِ مُصَرِّفٍ I " .

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) (the narrator Muhammad bin Talhah (may Allah have mercy on him) said: "That is my belief") that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) saw Jibril (peace be upon him) in his true form only twice: once when he (peace and blessings be upon him) asked him to show him his true form, so he showed it and filled the whole horizon. The second time was when he (peace and blessings be upon him) was with him as he ascended on high, as in this saying of Allah: "Then he drew near and came down, and was at a distance of two bow-lengths or nearer, and He revealed to His servant what He revealed." Then, when Jibril (peace be upon him) sensed (the manifestation of) his Lord, the Blessed and Exalted, he returned to his true form. That is the meaning of this saying of Allah Almighty: "And he certainly saw him in another descent, at the Lote Tree of the Utmost Boundary, near which is the Garden of Abode," up to "He certainly saw some of the greatest signs of his Lord." He said: "That is, he saw (the greatness of) the form in which Jibril (peace be upon him) was created."
Imam al-Tabarani (may Allah have mercy on him) said: "This hadith has been narrated from Ishaq bin Abi al-Kahtalah only with this chain; Muhammad bin Talhah bin Musarrif is alone in narrating it."
