(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا عَفَّانُ , حَدَّثَنَا أَبَانُ الْعَطَّارُ , حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ أَبِي كَثِيرٍ , قَالَ : سَأَلْتُ أَبَا سَلَمَةَ بْنَ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ أَيُّ الْقُرْآنِ نَزَلَ أَوَّلَ ؟ قَالَ : يَا أَيُّهَا الْمُدَّثِّرُ ، قُلْتُ : فَإِنِّي أُنْبِئْتُ أَنَّ أَوَّلَ سُورَةٍ نَزَلَتْ اقْرَأْ بِاسْمِ رَبِّكَ الَّذِي خَلَقَ ، قَالَ جَابِرٌ : لَا أُحَدِّثُكَ إِلَّا كَمَا حَدَّثَنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ , قَالَ : " جَاوَرْتُ فِي حِرَاءٍ , فَلَمَّا قَضَيْتُ جِوَارِي , نَزَلْتُ فَاسْتَبْطَنْتُ الْوَادِيَ , فَنُودِيتُ , فَنَظَرْتُ بَيْنَ يَدَيَّ وَخَلْفِي , وَعَنْ يَمِينِي وَعَنْ شِمَالِي , فَلَمْ أَرَ شَيْئًا , فَنُودِيتُ أَيْضًا فَنَظَرْتُ بَيْنَ يَدَيَّ وَخَلْفِي , وَعَنْ يَمِينِي وَعَنْ شِمَالِي , فَلَمْ أَرَ شَيْئًا , فَنَظَرْتُ فَوْقِي , فَإِذَا أَنَا بِهِ قَاعِدٌ عَلَى عَرْشٍ بَيْنَ السَّمَاءِ وَالْأَرْضِ , فَجُئِثْتُ مِنْهُ , فَأَتَيْتُ مَنْزِلَ خَدِيجَةَ , فَقُلْتُ : دَثِّرُونِي وَصُبُّوا عَلَيَّ مَاءً بَارِدًا " ، قَالَ : " فَنَزَلَتْ عَلَيَّ يَأَيُّهَا الْمُدَّثِّرُ قُمْ فَأَنْذِرْ وَرَبَّكَ فَكَبِّرْ سورة المدثر آية 1 - 3 " .
Yahya bin Abi Kathir says that I asked Abu Salamah which part of the Qur'an was revealed first. He mentioned Surah Al-Muddathir. I said: Was Surah Iqra’ not revealed first? He said that I had asked this same question to Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him), and he gave this answer, and I also asked this question, so he said: I am telling you what the Prophet (peace be upon him) himself told us. The Prophet (peace be upon him) said: I stayed in the neighborhood of the cave of Hira for a month. When I completed the month and came down from the mountain and reached the bottom of the valley, someone called out to me. I looked ahead, behind, to my right and to my left, but I saw no one. After a short while, the voice came again. I looked around again, but saw no one. The third time the voice came, I raised my head and saw Sayyiduna Jibril in the air on his throne. Seeing this, I was seized with intense trembling, and I went to Khadijah and said, "Cover me with a thick blanket." So she covered me with a blanket and poured water over me. At that moment, Allah revealed this verse: "O you who covers himself [with a cloak], arise and warn..." to the end.
