Hazrat Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that I was with the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) together in a cave when this verse was revealed { وَالْمُرْسَلاَتِ عُرْفًا }. As soon as this verse was revealed, we received it from the blessed chest of the Prophet (peace be upon him). Meanwhile, a snake entered the cave, so the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "Kill it." We moved forward to kill the snake, but it ran away. Then he said, "Allah has saved it from your harm and you from its harm."
