Mu'jam Kabir Tabarani 12376 — The Jews came to the Prophet ﷺ and said

حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ، ثنا أَبُو نُعَيْمٍ، ثنا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ الْوَلِيدِ الْعِجْلِيُّ، عَنْ بُكَيْرِ بْنِ شِهَابٍ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ: أَقْبَلَتْ يَهُودُ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَقَالُوا: يَا أَبَا الْقَاسِمِ نَسْأَلُكَ، عَنْ أَشْيَاءَ إِنْ أَجَبْتَنَا فِيهَا اتَّبَعْنَاكَ، وَصَدَّقْنَاكَ وَآمَنَّا بِكَ. قَالَ: فَأَخَذَ عَلَيْهِمْ مَا أَخَذَ إِسْرَائِيلُ عَلَى نَفْسِهِ، قَالُوا: اللهُ عَلَى مَا نَقُولُ وَكِيلٌ، قَالُوا: أَخْبِرْنَا عَنْ عَلَامَةِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ؟ قَالَ: «تَنَامُ عَيْنَاهُ، وَلَا يَنَامُ قَلْبُهُ» ، قَالُوا: أَخْبِرْنَا كَيْفَ تُؤَنِّثُ الْمَرْأَةُ وَكَيْفَ تُذْكِرُ؟ قَالَ: «يَلْتَقِي الْمَاءَانِ، فَإِنْ عَلَا مَاءُ الْمَرْأَةِ مَاءَ الرَّجُلِ آنَثَتْ، وَإِنْ عَلَا مَاءُ الرَّجُلِ مَاءَ الْمَرْأَةِ أَذْكَرَتْ» قَالُوا: صَدَقْتَ، قَالُوا: فَأَخْبِرْنَا عَنِ الرَّعْدِ مَا هُوَ؟ قَالَ: «مَلَكٌ مِنَ الْمَلَائِكَةِ مُوَكَّلٌ بِالسَّحَابِ يَصْرِفُهُ حَيْثُ شَاءَ اللهُ» قَالُوا: فَمَا هَذَا الصَّوْتُ الَّذِي يُسْمَعُ؟ قَالَ: «زَجْرَةُ السَّحَابِ إِذَا زَجَرَهُ حَتَّى يَنْتَهِيَ إِلَى حَيْثُ أَمَرَهُ» ، قَالُوا: صَدَقْتَ. قَالُوا: فَأَخْبِرْنَا مَا حَرَّمَ إِسْرَائِيلُ عَلَى نَفْسِهِ؟ قَالَ: «كَانَ يَسْكُنُ الْبَدْوَ، فَاشْتَكَى فَلَمْ يَجِدْ شَيْئًا يُلَائِمُهُ إِلَّا لُحُومَ الْإِبِلِ وَأَلْبَانَهَا فَلِذَلِكَ حَرَّمَهَا» ، قَالُوا: صَدَقْتَ، قَالُوا: فَأَخْبِرْنَا مَنِ الَّذِي يَأْتِيكَ مِنَ الْمَلَائِكَةِ، فَإِنَّهُ لَيْسَ مِنْ نَبِيٍّ إِلَّا وَيَأْتِيهِ مَلَكٌ مِنَ الْمَلَائِكَةِ بِالرِّسَالَةِ، وَالْوَحْيِ، فَمَنْ صَاحِبُكَ؟ فَإِنَّمَا بَقِيَتْ هَذِهِ قَالَ: «جِبْرِيلُ عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ» قَالُوا: ذَلِكَ الَّذِي يَنْزِلُ بِالْحَرْبِ وَالْقِتَالِ، ذَلِكَ عَدُوُّنَا، لَوْ قُلْتَ: مِيكَائِيلُ الَّذِي يَنْزِلُ بِالْقَطْرِ تَابَعْنَاكَ، فَأَنْزَلَ اللهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ: {قُلْ مَنْ كَانَ عَدُوًّا لِجِبْرِيلَ} [البقرة: ٩٧] الْآيَةَ
Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) narrates: The Jews came to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and said: O Abu al-Qasim! We will ask you about some things; if you answer us about them, we will follow you, affirm you and believe in you. So he (peace and blessings be upon him) took from them the same covenant that Ya'qub (peace be upon him) had taken upon himself. They said: Allah is Guardian over what we say. They said: Tell us the sign of a prophet. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "His eyes sleep but his heart does not sleep." They said: Tell us how a woman gives birth to a girl and how she gives birth to a boy. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "The two fluids meet; if the woman's fluid prevails over the man's fluid, a girl is born, and if the man's fluid prevails over the woman's fluid, a boy is born." They said: You have spoken the truth. They said: Tell us what thunder is. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "It is one of the angels, appointed over the clouds, who drives them wherever Allah wills." They said: Then what is this sound that is heard? He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "It is the sound of rebuking the clouds, when he rebukes them until they reach where they have been commanded." They said: You have spoken the truth. They said: Tell us what Ya'qub (peace be upon him) made unlawful for himself. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "He used to live in the desert, then he fell ill and found nothing that suited him except the meat and milk of camels, so for that reason he made them unlawful." They said: You have spoken the truth. They said: Tell us which of the angels comes to you, for there is no prophet except that one of the angels comes to him with the message and the revelation; so who is your companion? For only this question remains. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Jibril (peace be upon him)." They said: That is the one who comes down with war and fighting; he is our enemy. Had you named Mika'il, who comes down with rain, we would have followed you. Upon this Allah, the Mighty and Majestic, revealed this verse: "Say: Whoever is an enemy to Jibril" [Surah al-Baqarah: 97], to the end of the verse.
