from Allahazwj
Blessed andHigh; and the Nabias

Heas speaks to him just like one of you speaks to his companion. And the Nabiasdoes not see and an Angel with his
aseyes, but rather the Revelation descends upon
himas
, and heas
sees him in hisas
dream. I said, What makes himas
to know that whatheashas seen in hisasdream, is true. Heaswssaid: AllahazwjShows it to himas until
heasws
realises that that is truth. And the Muhaddithasws
, heasws

Heasis the one who sees in hisasdream and heassees the Angel with hisaseyes. Isaid, Is a Nabi

Jibraeel in front of himas. Heassees him and heasspeaks to him. This is the Rasoolas.And as for the Nabi
as, he
assees in his
asdream, something like what Ibrahim
assaw,
and something like what the Rasool Allahsaww
saw from the causes of the Prophet-hood before the Revelation, until Jibraeel came to him from Allahazwj with theMessage. The Prophet-hood was gathered for Muhammad
saww, and the Message
Came to himsaww from Allahazwj. Jibraeel came with it, and hesaww spoke to him, infront of him
saww.
And from the Nabias
. And from the Anbia1as

assees in his
asdream. The Spirit comes to him
as. It speaks to
himas
and it narrates to himas
in a state which is other than wakefulness. And as forthe Muhaddith, heasws is the one to whom it occurs. Heasws hears, and sees withhis

Bakaar Bin Abu Bakr, from Musa Bin Ashem who said:I was in the presence of Abu Abdullahasws. A man asked himaswsabout a Verse fromthe Book of Allah
azwj. He
asws informed him about it. Then another man entered.
Heasws
asked about that (the same) Verse. Heasws
informed him differently to whatheaswshad informed him (the first man).
.
This started troubling me, what AllahazwjDesired, until my heart was as if it is beingcut by knives. I said to myself, I left Abu Qatada in Shaam, who do not make amistake in writing a Waaw (Letter of Arabic Alphabet) and similar to that, and maybe I have made a mistake (to leave him). This is the mistake, all of it. And anotherone came to himasws. He asked himaswsabout that very same Verse. Heaswsinformedhim differently to what he had informed me, and informed my companion. I calmedmyself, and knew that this is being done deliberately. Then heasws turned to mesaying: O Ibn Asheym, Allah
azwjhad Authorised to Suleiman Bin Dawood
as. He
azwj
Said: [38:39] This is Our free gift, therefore give freely or withhold, withoutreckoning, and Authorised to Hisazwj Prophetsaww.

clay before the creation of Adamas
by two thousand years, and none depart from it adeparting, nor do any enter in it an entering, and Iasws
