«إذا قضى الله تعالى الأمر في السماء ضربت الملائكة بأجنحتها خضعانا لقوله كأنه سلسلة على صفوان، فإذا فزع عن قلوبهم ق الوا ماذا قال ربكم؟ قالوا ل لذي قال الحق وهو العلي الكبير، فيسمعها مسترقوا السمع ومسترقوا السمع هكذا واحد فوق آخر فربما أدرك الشهاب المستمع قبل أن يرمي بها إلى صاحبه فيحرقه، وربما لم يدركه حتى يرمي بها إلى الذي يليه إلى الذي هو أسفل منه حتى يلقوها إلى الأرض، فتلقى على فم الساحر فيكذب معها مئة كذبة فيصدق فيقولون: ألم تخبرنا يوم كذا وكذا يكون كذا وكذا فوجدناه حقا للكلمة التي سمعت من السماء»
The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
"When Allah Almighty decrees a matter in the heaven, the angels beat their wings in submission to His word, making a sound as though a chain were being dragged over a smooth, clean rock. Then when fear is removed from their hearts, they ask one another: Madha qala Rabbukum (What did your Lord say?) The angels reply: Qalul-haqqa wa huwal-'aliyyul-kabir (He said the truth, and He is the Most High, the Most Great). [Surah Saba: 23] Then the stealthy eavesdroppers (the devils) hear this word, and these stealthy eavesdroppers are layered one above another in this way. Sometimes the flame of fire (the shooting star) overtakes the one listening before he can pass the word on to his companion below him, and burns him to ashes; and sometimes the flame does not reach him until he has passed the word on to the one below him, until they convey it to the earth. Then the word is cast into the mouth of the sorcerer (or soothsayer), and he relates it mixed with a hundred lies. Then (when that one word turns out true) he is believed, and the people say: Did he not tell us on such-and-such a day that such-and-such would happen? And we found it true. And this is because of that one word which was heard from the heaven."
