Ma'n says that I heard from my father, he said: I asked Masruq, "On the night when the jinn came and listened to the Qur'an, who informed the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) about this?" He said: Your father (i.e., Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas'ud, may Allah be pleased with them both) narrated to me that the Prophet (peace be upon him) was informed of the coming of the jinn by a tree.
