The narration gives a simple sequence: revelation came, Aishah moved and closed the door, the revelation ended, and the greeting was delivered. It does not add a long speech from Jibril or describe what the Prophet saw. Its main message is the honor of a salam conveyed to Aishah through the Messenger of Allah. Readers looking for the angel Jibril greeting Aishah should keep to this exact wording. The report also shows Aishah present near the Prophet at the time revelation came, while giving no added explanation of the experience.
