(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا
عَفَّانُ ، حَدَّثَنَا
حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ ، أَنْبَأَنَا
عَاصِمُ بْنُ بَهْدَلَةَ ، عَنْ
زِرِّ بْنِ حُبَيْشٍ ، عَنِ
ابْنِ مَسْعُودٍ ، قَالَ : كُنَّا مَعَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي سَفْحِ جَبَلٍ ، وَهُوَ قَائِمٌ يُصَلِّي ، وَهُمْ نِيَامٌ ، قَالَ : إِذْ مَرَّتْ بِهِ حَيَّةٌ ، فَاسْتَيْقَظْنَا ، وَهُوَ يَقُولُ : " مَنَعَهَا مِنْكُمْ الَّذِي مَنَعَكُمْ مِنْهَا " . (حديث موقوف) (حديث مرفوع) " وَأُنْزِلَتْ عَلَيْهِ وَالْمُرْسَلَاتِ عُرْفًا ، فَالْعَاصِفَاتِ عَصْفًا ، فَأَخَذْتُهَا وَهِيَ رَطْبَةٌ بِفِيهِ ، أَوْ فُوهُ رَطْبٌ بِهَا " .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) that once we were with the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) in a cave on a mountain. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was standing and offering prayer while the people were sleeping, when suddenly a snake passed near the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). We woke up, and the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "The One who kept you safe from it is the same One who kept it safe from you." And Surah Mursalat was revealed to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), which I memorized as soon as it came out from the blessed mouth of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), while that Surah was still fresh upon his blessed lips.
