4857. Narrated Ash-Shaibānī: I asked Zirṭ about the Statement of Allāh تعالى: “And was at a distance of two bows’ length or (even) nearer. So (Allāh) revealed to His slave [Muḥammad ﷺ] through Jibrīl (Gabriel) [عليه السلام] whatever He revealed.” (V.53:10) He said, “‘Abdullāh (bin Mas’ūd) informed us that Muḥammad ﷺ had seen Jibrīl (Gabriel) with six hundred wings.”

Arabic text

4857 - حَدَّثَنَا طَلْقُ بْنُ غَنَّامٍ، حَدَّثَنَا زَائِدَةُ، عَنِ الشَّيْبَانِيِّ، قَالَ: سَأَلْتُ زِرًّا عَنْ قَوْلِهِ تَعَالَى: {فَكَانَ قَابَ قَوْسَيْنِ أَوْ أَدْنَى فَأَوْحَى إِلَى عَبْدِهِ مَا أَوْحَى} [النجم: 10]، قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ: «أَنَّ مُحَمَّدًا صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ رَأَى جِبْرِيلَ لَهُ سِتُّ مِائَةِ جَنَاحٍ»
