عن عبدالله بن عباس -رضي الله عنهما- قال
Ibn ‘Abbas (May Allah be pleased with them) reported:
بينما جبريل -عليه السلام- قاعد عند النبي -صلى الله عليه وسلم- سمع نَقِيضَا من فوقه
While Jibril (Gabriel) was sitting with the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him), he heard a sound above him.
فرفع رأسه، فقال: هذا باب من السماء فُتِحَ اليوم ولم يفتح قط إلا اليوم
He lifted his head, and said: “This is a gate which has been opened in heaven today. It was never opened before.”
فنزل منه مَلَكٌ، فقال: هذا ملك نزل إلى الأرض لم ينزل قط إلا اليوم، فسلم وقال
Then an angel descended through it, he said:
“This is an angel who has come down to earth. He never came down before.”
He sent greetings and said:
:أبشر بنُورين أُوتِيْتَهُما لم يُؤتهما نَبِيٌّ قبلك)
“Rejoice with two lights given to you. Such lights were not given to any Prophet before you.
These (lights) are:
، فاتحة الكتاب، وخَوَاتِيمُ سورة البقرة
Fatihah-til-Kitab (Surat Al-Fatihah), and the concluding Ayat of Surat Al-Baqarah.
لن تقرأ بحرف منها إلا أُعْطِيتَهُ
You will never recite a word from them without being given the blessings it contains.” [Muslim]
