Al-Lu'lu Wal-MarjanHadith Number 1505

حديث عَائِشَةَ، أُمِّ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ، أَنَّ الْحارثَ بْنَ هِشَامٍ رضي الله عنها، سَأَلَ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ، فَقَالَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ كَيْفَ يَأْتِيكَ الْوَحْيُ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ: أَحْيَانًا يَأْتِينِي مِثْلَ صَلْصَلَةِ الْجَرَسِ، وَهُوَ أَشَدُّهُ عَلَيَّ، فَيُفْصَمُ عَنِّي وَقَدْ وَعَيْتُ عَنْهُ مَا قَالَ وَأَحْيَانًا يَتَمَثَّلُ لِي الْمَلَكُ رَجُلًا فَيُكَلِّمُنِي فَأَعِي مَا يَقُولُ قَالَتْ عَائِشَةَ: وَلَقَدْ رَأَيْتُهُ يَنْزِلُ عَلَيْهِ الْوَحْيُ فِي الْيَوْمِ الشَّدِيدِ الْبَرْدِ فَيَفْصِمُ عَنْهُ، وَإِنَّ جَبِينَهُ لَيَتَفَصَّدُ عَرَقًا.

A'isha Narrated from:

Al-Hârith bin Hishâm asked رضى الله عنه Allâh's Messenger صلى الله عليه وسلم "O Allâh's Messenger! How is the Divine Inspiration revealed to you?" Allâh's Messenger صلى الله عليه وسلم replied, "Sometimes it is (revealed) like the ringing of a bell, this form of Inspiration is the hardest of all and then this state passes off after I have grasped what is inspired. Sometimes the angel comes in the form of a man and talks to me and I grasp whatever he says."'Aisha رضى الله عنها added: Verily, I saw the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم being inspired (Divinely) and noticed the sweat dripping from his forehead on a very cold day (as the Inspiration was over).( Sahih Al-Bukhâri, Hadîth No. 2, Vol. 1 )
