حَدَّثَنَا مِقْدَامٌ : نَا أَسَدُ بْنُ مُوسَى : نَا يُوسُفُ بْنُ زِيَادٍ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الْمُنْعِمِ بْنِ إِدْرِيسَ ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ إِدْرِيسَ ، عَنْ جَدِّهِ وَهْبِ بْنِ مُنَبِّهٍ ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ، أَنَّ رَجُلًا مِنَ الْيَهُودِ أَتَى النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ : يَا أَبَا الْقَاسِمِ ، هَلِ احْتَجَبَ اللهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ عَنْ خَلْقِهِ بِشَيْءٍ غَيْرِ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضِ ؟ قَالَ : نَعَمْ ، بَيْنَهُ وَبَيْنَ الْمَلَائِكَةِ الَّذِينَ حَوْلَ الْعَرْشِ سَبْعُونَ حِجَابًا مِنْ نَارٍ ، وَسَبْعُونَ حِجَابًا مِنْ نُورٍ ، وَسَبْعُونَ حِجَابًا مِنْ ظُلْمَةٍ ، وَسَبْعُونَ حِجَابًا مِنْ رَفَارِفِ الْإِسْتَبْرَقِ ، وَسَبْعُونَ حِجَابًا مِنْ رَفَارَفِ السُّنْدُسِ ، وَسَبْعُونَ حِجَابًا مِنْ دُرٍّ أَبْيَضَ ، وَسَبْعُونَ حِجَابًا مِنْ دُرٍّ أَحْمَرَ ، وَسَبْعُونَ حِجَابًا مِنْ دُرٍّ أَصْفَرَ ، وَسَبْعُونَ حِجَابًا مِنْ دُرٍّ أَخْضَرَ ، وَسَبْعُونَ حِجَابًا مِنْ ضِيَاءٍ اسْتَضَاءَ مِنَ النَّارِ وَالنُّورِ ، وَسَبْعُونَ حِجَابًا مِنْ ثَلْجٍ ، وَسَبْعُونَ حِجَابًا مِنْ مَاءٍ ، وَسَبْعُونَ حِجَابًا مِنْ غَمَامٍ ، وَسَبْعُونَ حِجَابًا مِنْ بَرَدٍ ، وَسَبْعُونَ حِجَابًا مِنْ عَظَمَةِ اللهِ الَّتِي لَا تُوصَفُ I " قَالَ : فَأَخْبِرْنِي عَنْ مَلَكِ اللهِ الَّذِي يَلِيهِ ، فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : I " أَصَدَقْتُ فِيمَا أَخْبَرْتُكَ يَا يَهُودِيُّ ؟ I " قَالَ : نَعَمْ قَالَ : I " فَإِنَّ الْمَلَكَ الَّذِي يَلِيهِ إِسْرَافِيلُ ، ثُمَّ جِبْرِيلُ ، ثُمَّ مِيكَائِيلُ ، ثُمَّ مَلَكُ الْمَوْتِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِمْ أَجْمَعِينَ .
لَا يُرْوَى هَذَا الْحَدِيثُ ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ إِلَّا بِهَذَا الْإِسْنَادِ ، تَفَرَّدَ بِهِ : أَسَدٌ .

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) that a man from the Jews came to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and said: "O Abu al-Qasim, has Allah, the Mighty and Majestic, veiled Himself from His creation by anything other than the heavens and the earth?" He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Yes. Between Him and the angels who are around the Throne there are seventy veils of fire, seventy veils of light, seventy veils of darkness, seventy veils of sheets of brocade (istabraq), seventy veils of sheets of fine silk (sundus), seventy veils of white pearl, seventy veils of red pearl, seventy veils of yellow pearl, seventy veils of green pearl, seventy veils of a radiance that took its brightness from the fire and the light, seventy veils of snow, seventy veils of water, seventy veils of cloud, seventy veils of hail, and seventy veils of the greatness of Allah which cannot be described." He said: "Now tell me about the angel of Allah who is nearest to Him." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "O Jew, is what I have told you true?" He said: "Yes." He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "The angel who is nearest to Him is Israfil, then Jibril, then Mika'il, then the Angel of Death. May Allah's blessings be upon them all."
Imam al-Tabarani (may Allah have mercy on him) said: "This hadith is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) only with this chain; Asad is alone in narrating it."
