English translation

[1857] 241 - (...) It was narrated that Abû Ishaq said: "I heard Al-Barâ' say: 'A man recited Sûrat Al-Kahf, and in the house there was an animal which became startled. He looked and saw that a cloud had overshadowed it. He mentioned that to the Prophet ﷺ and he said: Recite, so-and-so, for it is tranquility (Sakīnah) that came down when the Qur'an (is recited)" or "that came down because of the Qur'an.'"

Arabic text

241 - (795) وحَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ الْمُثَنَّى، وَابْنُ بَشَّارٍ، وَاللَّفْظُ لِابْنِ الْمُثَنَّى، قَالَا: حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ الْبَرَاءَ، يَقُولُ: قَرَأَ رَجُلٌ الْكَهْفَ، وَفِي الدَّارِ دَابَّةٌ فَجَعَلَتْ تَنْفِرُ، فَنَظَرَ فَإِذَا ضَبَابَةٌ، أَوْ سَحَابَةٌ قَدْ غَشِيَتْهُ، قَالَ: فَذَكَرَ ذَلِكَ لِلنَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَقَالَ: «اقْرَأْ فُلَانُ، فَإِنَّهَا السَّكِينَةُ تَنَزَّلَتْ عِنْدَ الْقُرْآنِ، أَوْ تَنَزَّلَتْ لِلْقُرْآنِ».
