أَبِي هُرَيْرَة ، أَنّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ :
" كَانَ دَاوُدُ النَّبِيُّ فِيهِ غَيْرَةٌ شَدِيدَةٌ ، وَكَانَ إِذَا خَرَجَ أُغْلِقَتْ الْأَبْوَابُ ، فَلَمْ يَدْخُلْ عَلَى أَهْلِهِ أَحَدٌ حَتَّى يَرْجِعَ ، قَالَ : فَخَرَجَ ذَاتَ يَوْمٍ وَأُغْلِقَتِ الدَّارُ ، فَأَقْبَلَتِ امْرَأَتُهُ تَطَّلِعُ إِلَى الدَّارِ ، فَإِذَا رَجُلٌ قَائِمٌ وَسَطَ الدَّارِ ، فَقَالَتْ لِمَنْ فِي الْبَيْتِ : مِنْ أَيْنَ دَخَلَ هَذَا الرَّجُلُ الدَّارَ ، وَالدَّارُ مُغْلَقَةٌ ؟ ، وَاللَّهِ لَتُفْتَضَحُنَّ بِدَاوُدَ ، فَجَاءَ دَاوُدُ ، فَإِذَا الرَّجُلُ قَائِمٌ وَسَطَ الدَّارِ ، فَقَالَ لَهُ دَاوُدُ : مَنْ أَنْتَ ؟ قَالَ : أَنَا الَّذِي لَا أَهَابُ الْمُلُوكَ ، وَلَا يَمْتَنِعُ مِنِّي شَيْءٌ . فَقَالَ دَاوُدُ : أَنْتَ وَاللَّهِ مَلَكُ الْمَوْتِ فَمَرْحَبًا بِأَمْرِ اللَّهِ ، فَرَمَلَ دَاوُدُ مَكَانَهُ حَيْثُ قُبِضَتْ رُوحُهُ حَتَّى فَرَغَ مِنْ شَأْنِهِ , وَطَلَعَتْ عَلَيْهِ الشَّمْسُ ، فَقَالَ سُلَيْمَانُ لِلطَّيْرِ : أَظِلِّي عَلَى دَاوُدَ ، فَأَظَلَّتْ عَلَيْهِ الطَّيْرُ حَتَّى أَظْلَمَتْ عَلَيْهِمَا الْأَرْضُ ، فَقَالَ لَهَا سُلَيْمَانُ : اقْبِضِي جَنَاحًا جَنَاحًا " . قَالَ أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ : يُرِينَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَيْفَ فَعَلَتِ الطَّيْرُ ، وَقُبِضَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يده , وَغَلَبَتْ عَلَيْهِ يَوْمَئِذٍ الْمَصْرَحِيَّةُ .
It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Hazrat Dawood (peace be upon him) had a great sense of protective jealousy. When he would leave the house, the doors of his house would be closed, and until his return, no one could go to his family. One day, as usual, he left his house and the doors were closed. His wife looked into the house and saw a man standing in the middle of the house. She asked the people present in the house, "The door of the house is closed, how did this man enter the house? By Allah! You will embarrass Dawood in front of him." After a short while, Hazrat Dawood (peace be upon him) returned and saw a man standing right in the middle of the house. He asked him, "Who are you?" He replied, "I am the one who does not fear kings, and nothing can stop me." Hazrat Dawood (peace be upon him) said, "By Allah! You are the Angel of Death. Welcome to the command of Allah," and he lay down on the ground, where his soul was taken, and the angel completed his task. When the sun rose, Hazrat Sulaiman (peace be upon him) ordered the birds to provide shade over Hazrat Dawood (peace be upon him), so the birds gave him shade. Then, when darkness spread over the earth, Hazrat Sulaiman (peace be upon him) told the birds, "Fold your wings one by one." Hazrat Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) says that the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) demonstrated the state of the birds to us practically and closed his hand. On that day, the hawk with long wings prevailed.
