4926. Narrated Jābir bin 'Abdullāh رضي الله عنه that he heard Allāh's Messenger ﷺ describing the period of pause of the Divine Revelation, and in his description he said, "While I was walking, I heard a voice from the sky. I looked up towards the sky, and behold! I saw the same angel who came to me in the cave of Hīrā', sitting on a chair between the sky and the earth. I was so terrified by him that I fell down on the ground. Then I went to my wife and said, 'Envelop me in garments! Envelop me in garments!' They enveloped me, and then Allāh revealed: 'O you (Muḥammad ﷺ) enveloped in garments! Arise and warn... (up to) ... And keep away from Ar-Rujz (the idols).'" (V.74:1-5) Abū Salama said: 'Rujz' means idols. After that, the Divine Revelation started coming strongly and more frequently. (75) SŪRAT AL-QIYĀMAH(The Resurrection) In the Name of Allāh, the Most Gracious,the Most Merciful.
