حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ أَبِي سُرَيْجٍ الرَّازِيُّ، وَعَلِيُّ بْنُ الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، وَعَلِيُّ بْنُ مُسْلِمٍ، قَالُوا حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا الأَعْمَشُ، عَنْ مُسْلِمٍ، عَنْ مَسْرُوقٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏:‏ ‏"‏ إِذَا تَكَلَّمَ اللَّهُ بِالْوَحْىِ سَمِعَ أَهْلُ السَّمَاءِ لِلسَّمَاءِ صَلْصَلَةً كَجَرِّ السِّلْسِلَةِ عَلَى الصَّفَا فَيُصْعَقُونَ، فَلاَ يَزَالُونَ كَذَلِكَ حَتَّى يَأْتِيَهُمْ جِبْرِيلُ حَتَّى إِذَا جَاءَهُمْ جِبْرِيلُ فُزِّعَ عَنْ قُلُوبِهِمْ ‏"‏ . قَالَ ‏:‏ ‏"‏ فَيَقُولُونَ ‏:‏ يَا جِبْرِيلُ مَاذَا قَالَ رَبُّكَ فَيَقُولُ ‏:‏ الْحَقَّ فَيَقُولُونَ ‏:‏ الْحَقَّ الْحَقَّ ‏"‏ .

English translation
‘Abd Allah (b. Mas’ud) reported the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) as saying: "When Allah, the exalted, speaks to send revelation, the inhabitants of heaven hear the clanging of a bell from the heavens like a chain being dragged across a rock, and they swoon. They continue to remain like that until Jibril comes to them. When he comes to them, they recover and say: 'O Jibril, what did your Lord say?' He would say: 'The truth,' and they would say: 'The truth, the truth
বাংলা অনুবাদ
। আব্দুল্লাহ (রাঃ) সূত্রে বর্ণিত। তিনি বলেন, রাসূলুল্লাহ সাল্লাল্লাহু আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম বলেছেনঃ যখন মহান আল্লাহ ওহী প্রেরণের কথা বলেন, তখন এক আকাশের অধিবাসীগণ অন্য আকাশ থেকে সাফা পর্বতের উপর দিয়ে শিকল টানা শব্দের মতই শব্দ শুনতে পান। আর আওয়াজ শুনে তারা বেহুশ হয়ে যায় এবং জিবরীল (আঃ) তাদের নিকট উপস্থিত হলে তাদের অন্তর থেকে ভয় বিদূরীত হয়ে তারা হুশ ফিরে পায়। অতঃপর তারা বলে, হে জিবরীল! আপনার রব কি বলেছেন? তিনি বললেন, যা সত্য তাই বলেছেন। তখন তারা বলে, সত্যই বলেছেন, সত্যই বলেছেন। সহীহ।
