حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ السَّامِيُّ ، بِعَبَّادَانَ ، حَدَّثَنَا عُثْمَانُ بْنُ الْهَيْثَمِ ، مُؤَذِّنُ مَسْجِدِ الْجَامِعِ بِالْبَصْرَةِ عِنْدِي ، عَنْ مَحْبُوبِ بْنِ هِلَالٍ ، عَنْ عَطَاءِ بْنِ أَبِي مَيْمُونَةَ ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ ، قَالَ : نَزَلَ جِبْرِيلُ عَلَى النَّبِيِّ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - قَالَ : مَاتَ مُعَاوِيَةُ بْنُ مُعَاوِيَةَ اللَّيْثِيُّ ، فُتُحِبُّ أَنْ تُصَلِّيَ عَلَيْهِ ؟ قَالَ : نَعَمْ ، قَالَ : ضَرَبَ بِجَنَاحِهِ الْأَرْضَ فَلَمْ يَبْقَ شَجَرَةٌ وَلَا أَكَمَةٌ إِلَّا تَضَعْضَعَتْ ، فَرَفَعَ سَرِيرَهُ ، فَنَظَرَ إِلَيْهِ فَكَبَّرَ عَلَيْهِ وَخَلْفَهُ صَفَّانِ مِنَ الْمَلَائِكَةِ ، فِي كُلِّ صَفٍّ سَبْعُونَ أَلْفَ مَلَكٍ ، فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - : يَا جِبْرِيلُ ، بِمَ نَالَ هَذِهِ الْمَنْزِلَةَ مِنَ اللهِ ؟ قَالَ : بِحُبِّهِ قُلْ هُوَ اللهُ أَحَدٌ ، وَقِرَاءَتِهِ إِيَّاهَا ذَاهِبًا وَجَائِيًا ، وَقَائِمًا وَقَاعِدًا ، وَعَلَى كُلِّ حَالٍ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him): "Sayyiduna Jibril (peace be upon him) came to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and said that Sayyiduna Mu'awiyah bin Mu'awiyah al-Laythi (may Allah be pleased with him) had passed away, so would you like to offer the funeral prayer over him? He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: 'Yes.' So he (Sayyiduna Jibril (peace be upon him)) struck the earth with his wing, as a result of which no tree or hillock remained that was not lowered. Then his bier was raised until he (peace and blessings be upon him) saw it, and he (peace and blessings be upon him) offered the funeral prayer over him while behind him (peace and blessings be upon him) there were two rows of angels, each row consisting of seventy thousand angels. Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) asked: 'O Jibril! By what deed did he attain this lofty rank with Allah?' He said: 'Because of his love for the surah "Say: He is Allah, the One", and because he recited it while coming and going, standing and sitting, and in every state.'"
