4980. Narrated Abū 'Uthmān: I was informed that Jibrīl (Gabriel) came to the Prophet ﷺ while Umm Salama was with him. Jibrīl started talking (to the Prophet ﷺ). Then the Prophet ﷺ asked Umm Salama, 'Who is this?' She replied, "He is Dihya (Al-Kalabī)." When Jibrīl had left, Umm Salama said, "By Allāh, I did not take him for anybody other than him (i.e., Dihya) till I heard in the Khutba (religious talk) of the Prophet ﷺ wherein he informed about the news of Jibrīl." The subnarrator asked Abū 'Uthmān, "From whom have you heard that?" Abū 'Uthmān said, "From Usāma bin Zaid."

4980 - حَدَّثَنَا مُوسَى بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ، حَدَّثَنَا مُعْتَمِرٌ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ أَبِي، عَنْ أَبِي عُثْمَانَ، قَالَ: أُنْبِئْتُ أَنَّ جِبْرِيلَ، أَتَى النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَعِنْدَهُ أُمُّ سَلَمَةَ، فَجَعَلَ يَتَحَدَّثُ، فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لِأُمِّ سَلَمَةَ: «مَنْ هَذَا؟» أَوْ كَمَا قَالَ، قَالَتْ: هَذَا دِحْيَةُ، فَلَمَّا قَامَ، قَالَتْ: وَاللَّهِ مَا حَسِبْتُهُ إِلَّا إِيَّاهُ، حَتَّى سَمِعْتُ خُطْبَةَ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يُخْبِرُ خَبَرَ جِبْرِيلَ، أَوْ كَمَا قَالَ، قَالَ أَبِي: قُلْتُ لِأَبِي عُثْمَانَ: مِمَّنْ سَمِعْتَ هَذَا؟ قَالَ: مِنْ أُسَامَةَ بْنِ زَيْدٍ
