Hadith of Jabir bin Samurah al-Suwa'i, from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him)
حَدِيثُ جَابِرِ بْنِ سَمُرَةَ السُّوَائِيِّ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ
Hadith of Jabir bin Samurah al-Suwa'i, from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him)
Musnad Abi Ya'la 7477 — he said: Once, on a moonlit night, I saw
حَدَّثَنَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ حَمَّادٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا الْمُحَارِبِيُّ ، حَدَّثَنَا أَشْعَثُ بْنُ سَوَّارٍ ، يَذْكُرُ عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ ، عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ سَمُرَةَ قَالَ : رَأَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - فِي لَيْلَةٍ إِضْحِيَانَ وَعَلَيْهِ حُلَّةٌ حَمْرَاءُ ، فَكُنْتُ أَنْظُرُ إِلَيْهِ وَإِلَى الْقَمَرِ ، فَهُوَ كَانَ فِي عَيْنِي أَزْيَنَ مِنَ الْقَمَرِ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Jabir bin Samurah (may Allah be pleased with him) that he said: "Once, on a moonlit night, I saw the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). At that time he (peace and blessings be upon him) was wearing a red suit (hullah). I would look at one time at his (peace and blessings be upon him) radiant face and at another time at the moon, and in my eyes he (peace and blessings be upon him) was far more beautiful than that moon."
