مسند عبد الله بن العباس بن عبد المطلب (1) ، عن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم

Hadith 25:820

Hassan narrated to us, Hammad ibn Salamah narrated to us, from Ammar ibn Abi Ammar, that Ibn Abbas said: I was with my father at the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him), and there was a man with him speaking to him privately, and he was as if he were turning away from my father. We left from his presence, and my father said to me: "O my son, did you not see your cousin as if he were turning away from me?" I said: "O my father, there was a man with him speaking to him privately." He said: So we returned to the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him), and my father said: "O Messenger of Allah, I said to Abdullah such and such, and he informed me that there was a man with you speaking to you privately. Was there anyone with you?" The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "And did you see him, O Abdullah?" I said: "Yes." He said: "That was Gabriel, and he is the one who occupied me from you."

حدثنا حسن، حدثنا حماد بن سلمة، عن عمار بن أبي عمار، أن ابن عباس، قال: كنت مع أبي عند رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم، وعنده رجل يناجيه، فكان كالمعرض عن أبي، فخرجنا من عنده، فقال لي أبي: أي بني، ألم تر إلى ابن عمك كالمعرض عني؟ فقلت: يا أبت، إنه كان عنده رجل يناجيه. قال: فرجعنا إلى النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم، فقال أبي: يا رسول الله، قلت لعبد الله: كذا وكذا، فأخبرني أنه كان عندك رجل يناجيك، فهل كان عندك أحد؟ فقال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم: " وهل رأيته يا عبد الله؟ " قال: قلت: نعم. قال: " فإن ذاك جبريل، وهو الذي شغلني عنك "
