Hadith 78
Zirr reported: 'Ali observed: By Him Who split up the seed and created something living, the Apostle (ﷺ) (may peace and blessings be upon him) gave me a promise that no one but a believer would love me, and none but a hypocrite would nurse grudge against me.
Hadith 174
Al-Shaibini reported to us: I asked Zirr bin Hubaish about the words of Allah (the Mighty and Great):" So he was (at a distance) of two bows or nearer" (al-Qur'an, Iiii 8). He said: Ibn Mas'ud informed me that, verily, the Apostle of Allah (ﷺ) saw Gabriel (ؑ) and he had six hundred wings.
Hadith 174
Al-Shaibani narrated on the authority of Zirr who narrated it on this authority of'Abdullah that the (words of Allah):" The heart belied not what he saw" (al Qur'an, Iiii. 11) imply that he saw Gabriel (ؑ) (peace be upon him) and he had six hundred wings.
Hadith 174
Zirr bin Hubaish narrated it on the authority of 'Abdullah (that the words of Allah):" Certainly he saw of the greatest signs of Allah" (al-Qur'an, liii. 18) imply that he saw Gabriel (ؑ) in his (original) form and he had six hundred wings.

أُبَيَّ بْنَ كَعْبٍ ، يَقُولُ : وَقِيلَ لَهُ : إِنَّ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ مَسْعُودٍ ، يَقُولُ : " مَنْ قَامَ السَّنَةَ ، أَصَابَ لَيْلَةَ الْقَدْرِ ، فَقَالَ أُبَيٌّ : وَاللَّهِ الَّذِي لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا هُوَ ، إِنَّهَا لَفِي رَمَضَانَ يَحْلِفُ مَا يَسْتَثْنِي ، وَوَاللَّهِ إِنِّي لَأَعْلَمُ أَيُّ لَيْلَةٍ هِيَ ، هِيَ اللَّيْلَةُ الَّتِي أَمَرَنَا بِهَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِقِيَامِهَا ، هِيَ لَيْلَةُ صَبِيحَةِ سَبْعٍ وَعِشْرِينَ ، وَأَمَارَتُهَا أَنْ تَطْلُعَ الشَّمْسُ فِي صَبِيحَةِ يَوْمِهَا بَيْضَاءَ لَا شُعَاعَ لَهَا " .
Zirr (b. Hubaish) reported: I heard from Ubayy bin Ka'b a statement made by 'Abdullah bin Mas'ud in which he said: He who gets up for prayer (every night) during the year will hit upon Lailat-ul-Qadr. Ubayy said: By Allah I there is no god but He, that (Lailat-ul-Qadr) is in Ramadhan (He swore without reservation:) By Allah, I know the night; it is the night on which the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) commanded us to pray. It is that which precedes the morning of twenty-seven and its indication is that the sun rises bright on that day without rays.

Ubayy b Ka'b reported: By Allah, I know about Lailat-ul Qadr and I know it fully well that it is the twenty-seventh night (during Ramadan) on which the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) commanded us to observe prayer. (Shu'bah was in doubt about these words:" the night on which the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) [may peace be upon him] commanded us to observe the prayer." This has been transmitted to me by a friend of mine.)

Zirr bin Habaish reported: I asked Ubayy bin Ka'b (RA) : Your brother (in faith) Ibn Mas'ud says: He who stands (for the night prayer) throughout the year would find Lailat-ul-Qadr, whereupon he said: May Allah have mercy upon him; (he said these words) with the intention that people might not rely only (on one night), whereas he knew that it (Lailat-ul-Qadr) is in the month of Ramadan and it is the twenty-seventh night. He then took oath (without making any exception, i. e. without saying Innsha Allah) that it was the twenty-seventh night. I said to him: Abu Mundhir, on what ground do you say that? Thereupon he said: By the indication or by the sign which the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) gave us, and that is that on that day (the sun) would rise without having any ray in it.

Zirr bin Hubaish reported that Ubayy bin Ka'b (RA) said about Lailat-ul-Qadr: By Allah, I know well about it. Shu'bah said: To the best of my knowledge it was the twenty-seventh night for which the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) commanded us to stand for prayer. Shu'bah doubted these words: That it was the night for which the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) commanded us to stand for prayer. And (he further) said: This was narrated to me by a friend of mine from him (the Holy Prophet).
