(حديث مرفوع) حدثنا ابو احمد ، حدثنا عبد الله بن الوليد العجلي ، وكانت له هيئة، رايناه عند حسن، عن بكير بن شهاب ، عن سعيد بن جبير ، عن ابن عباس ، قال: اقبلت يهود إلى رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم، فقالوا: يا ابا القاسم، إنا نسالك عن خمسة اشياء فإن انباتنا بهن عرفنا انك نبي، واتبعناك , فاخذ عليهم ما اخذ إسرائيل على بنيه، إذ قالوا: الله على ما نقول وكيل , قال:" هاتوا" , قالوا: اخبرنا عن علامة النبي , قال:" تنام عيناه، ولا ينام قلبه" , قالوا: اخبرنا كيف تؤنث المراة وكيف تذكر؟ قال:" يلتقي الماءان، فإذا علا ماء الرجل ماء المراة اذكرت، وإذا علا ماء المراة آنثت" , قالوا: اخبرنا ما حرم إسرائيل على نفسه؟ قال:" كان يشتكي عرق النسا، فلم يجد شيئا يلائمه إلا البان كذا وكذا، قال ابي: قال بعضهم: يعني الإبل، فحرم لحومها" , قالوا: صدقت , قالوا: اخبرنا ما هذا الرعد؟ قال:" ملك من ملائكة الله عز وجل موكل بالسحاب، بيده او في يده مخراق من نار، يزجر به السحاب، يسوقه حيث امر الله" , قالوا: فما هذا الصوت الذي يسمع؟ قال:" صوته" , قالوا: صدقت، إنما بقيت واحدة وهي التي نبايعك إن اخبرتنا بها، فإنه ليس من نبي إلا له ملك ياتيه بالخبر، فاخبرنا من صاحبك؟ قال:" جبريل عليه السلام" قالوا: جبريل ذاك الذي ينزل بالحرب، والقتال، والعذاب عدونا، لو قلت: ميكائيل الذي ينزل بالرحمة، والنبات، والقطر، لكان , فانزل الله عز وجل: من كان عدوا لجبريل سورة البقرة آية 97 , إلى آخر الآية.
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) that once some Jews came to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and said, "O Abul Qasim (peace and blessings be upon him)! We want to ask you five questions. If you answer them for us, we will know that you are truly a Prophet and we will begin to follow you." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) took a promise from them in the same way that Prophet Yaqub (peace be upon him) took from his sons. When they said, "Allah is a witness over what we say," the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "Now present your questions."
They asked the first question: "What is the sign of a Prophet?" The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "His eyes sleep but his heart does not sleep."
They asked the second question: "Tell us, how does a child become male or female?" He said, "The two fluids meet; if the man's fluid prevails over the woman's fluid, the child becomes male, and if the woman's fluid prevails over the man's fluid, a girl is born."
They asked the third question: "Tell us, what did Prophet Yaqub (peace be upon him) make unlawful for himself?" The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "He suffered from a disease called 'sciatica.' He felt that he liked camel's milk the most, so he made its (milk and) meat unlawful for himself." They said, "You have spoken the truth."
Then they asked the fourth question: "What is thunder (the rumbling and flashing of clouds)?" The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "It is an angel among the angels of Allah, who is appointed over the clouds. In his hand is an iron rod with which he strikes the clouds, and he drives them wherever Allah has commanded."
They said, "The sound we hear, where does it come from?" The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "That is his voice." They confirmed the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) in this as well and said, "Now one question remains. If you answer it, we will pledge allegiance to you. Every Prophet has an angel who brings revelation to him. Which angel comes to you?" The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "Jibreel!"
They said, "That same Jibreel who brings war, fighting, and punishment? He is our enemy. If you had mentioned Mika'il, who brings mercy, vegetation, and rain, then it would have been acceptable." Upon this, Allah revealed this verse of Surah Al-Baqarah: «﴿قُلْ مَنْ كَانَ عَدُوًّا لِجِبْرِيلَ . . . . .﴾ [البقرة: 97] » "(O Prophet!) Say: Whoever is an enemy to Jibreel . . . . ."
