Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) narrates that once I came to the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) with my father. At that time, there was a man present with the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) with whom he was whispering. It seemed as if the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) did not pay any attention to my father. When we left from there, my father said to me: "Son! Did you see your cousin, how he was not paying any attention to us?" I said: "Father! There was a man with him with whom he was whispering." We then returned to the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him). My father said: "O Messenger of Allah! I said such a thing to Abdullah, and he told me that there was a man with you who was whispering to you. Was there really someone with you?" The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "Abdullah! Did you really see him?" I replied: "Yes!" He said: "That was Jibreel (Gabriel), the trustworthy, and that is why I could not pay attention to you."
