باب نزول السكينة لقراءة القرآن
Descent of Tranquility When Quran is Recited
Hadith Number: 458
458 صحيح حديث البراء بن عازب قرا رجل الكهف، وفي الدار الدابة، فجعلت تنفر، فسلم، فإذا ضبابة او سحابة غشيته؛ فذكره للنبي صلى الله عليه وسلم، فقال اقرا فلان فإنها السكينة نزلت للقرآن او تنزلت للقرآن
Sayyiduna Bara’ bin ‘Azib (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated that a companion (Sayyiduna Usayd bin Hudayr, may Allah be pleased with him) recited Surah Al-Kahf (in prayer). In the same house, a horse was tied, and the horse began to jump and prance. (Sayyiduna Usayd, may Allah be pleased with him, did not pay attention to it and entrusted it to Allah.) After he finished the prayer with salam, he saw that a piece of cloud had cast its shade over his entire house. He mentioned this incident to the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him), so he said:“Keep on reciting the Qur’an, for this is tranquility (sakinah) which descended because of the Qur’an (or he said) was descending.”

459 صحيح حديث اسيد بن حضير، قال: بينما هو يقرا من الليل سورة البقرة، وفرسه مربوطة عنده، إذ جالت الفرس، فسكت فسكتت، فقرا فجالت الفرس، فسكت وسكتت الفرس، ثم قرا فجالت الفرس، فانصرف وكان ابنه يحيى قريبا منها، فاشفق ان تصيبه، فلما اجتره، رفع راسه إلى السماء حتى ما يراها، فلما اصبح حدث النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم، فقال: اقرا يا ابن حضير اقرا يا ابن حضير قال فاشفقت يا رسول الله ان تطا يحيى، وكان منها قريبا، فرفعت راسي فانصرفت إليه، فرفعت راسي إلى السماء فإذا مثل الظلة فيها امثال المصابيح، فخرجت حتى لا اراها قال: وتدري ما ذاك قال: لا؛ قال: تلك الملائكة دنت لصوتك، ولو قرات لاصبحت ينظر الناس إليها، لا تتوارى منهم
Sayyiduna Usaid bin Hudair (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated that one night I was reciting Surah Al-Baqarah and my horse was tied near me. Suddenly, the horse began to startle, so I stopped reciting and the horse calmed down. Then I started reciting again and the horse startled once more. Again, when I stopped reciting, the horse became quiet. The third time, when I began reciting, the horse startled again. Since my son Yahya was close to the horse, I feared he might get hurt, so I stopped reciting and moved the child away from there. Then I looked up but saw nothing. In the morning, I related this incident to the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him). The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "Ibn Hudair, you should have kept reciting and not stopped (that would have been better)." I said, "O Messenger of Allah, I was afraid the horse might trample my son Yahya, as he was very close to it. I raised my head and then went towards Yahya. Then I raised my head towards the sky and saw something like a canopy with lamps in it. When I went out again, I did not see it." The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "Do you know what that was?" Sayyiduna Usaid (may Allah be pleased with him) replied, "No." The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "Those were angels who had come near to listen to your voice. If you had continued reciting all night, people would have seen them in the morning; they would not have remained hidden from the people."
