حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ آدَمَ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ عَيَّاشٍ، عَنْ إِدْرِيسَ بْنِ مُنَبِّهٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ وَهْبِ بْنِ مُنَبِّهٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، قَالَ: " سَأَلَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ جِبْرِيلَ أَنْ يَرَاهُ فِي صُورَتِهِ، فَقَالَ: ادْعُ رَبَّكَ ". قَالَ: " فَدَعَا رَبَّهُ "، قَالَ: فَطَلَعَ عَلَيْهِ سَوَادٌ مِنْ قِبَلِ الْمَشْرِقِ، قَالَ: فَجَعَلَ يَرْتَفِعُ وَيَنْتَشِرُ، قَالَ: " فَلَمَّا رَآهُ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، صَعِقَ، فَأَتَاهُ فَنَعَشَهُ، وَمَسَحَ الْبُزَاقَ عَنْ شِدْقِهِ " (٢)، ،

English translation

It was narrated that ibn ‘Abbas (رضي الله عنه) said:

A Jewish man passed by the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) as he was sitting and said: What will you say, O Abul Qasim, on the Day when Allah, may He be blessed and exalted, puts the heaven on this - and he gestured with his forefinger - and the earth on this, and the water on this, and the mountains on this, and all of creation on this - all whilst gesturing with his fingers. Then Allah, may He be blessed and exalted, revealed the words: "They made not a just estimate of Allah such as is due to Him...” [az-Zumar 39.67].
