قَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ فَسَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم يَقُولُ لِحَسَّانَ ‏”‏ إِنَّ رُوحَ الْقُدُسِ لاَ يَزَالُ يُؤَيِّدُكَ مَا نَافَحْتَ عَنِ اللَّهِ وَرَسُولِهِ

‘A’isha said:

I heard Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) as saying to Hassan: Verily Ruh-ul-Qudus would continue to help you so long as you put up a defence on behalf of Allah and His Messenger.

Sahaba got Wahi while burying Muhammad (SAW)

حَدَّثَنِي يَحْيَى، عَنْ مَالِكٍ، أَنَّهُ بَلَغَهُ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم تُوُفِّيَ يَوْمَ الاِثْنَيْنِ وَدُفِنَ يَوْمَ الثُّلاَثَاءِ وَصَلَّى النَّاسُ عَلَيْهِ أَفْذَاذًا لاَ يَؤُمُّهُمْ أَحَدٌ . فَقَالَ نَاسٌ يُدْفَنُ عِنْدَ الْمِنْبَرِ . وَقَالَ آخَرُونَ يُدْفَنُ بِالْبَقِيعِ . فَجَاءَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ الصِّدِّيقُ فَقَالَ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم يَقُولُ ” مَا دُفِنَ نَبِيٌّ قَطُّ إِلاَّ فِي مَكَانِهِ الَّذِي تُوُفِّيَ فِيهِ ” . فَحُفِرَ لَهُ فِيهِ فَلَمَّا كَانَ عِنْدَ غُسْلِهِ أَرَادُوا نَزْعَ قَمِيصِهِ فَسَمِعُوا صَوْتًا يَقُولُ لاَ
تَنْزِعُوا الْقَمِيصَ فَلَمْ يُنْزَعِ الْقَمِيصُ وَغُسِّلَ وَهُوَ عَلَيْهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم .

Yahya related to me from Malik that he had heard that the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, died on Monday and was buried on Tuesday and people prayed over him individually with no one leading them. Some people said that he would be buried near the minbar, and others said that he would be buried in al-Baqi. Abu Bakr as-Siddiq came and said, “I heard the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, say, ‘No prophet was ever buried except in the place where he died.’ “So a grave was dug for him there. When he was about to be washed they wished to take off his shirt but they heard a voice saying “Don’t take off his shirt,” so they did not take off his shirt and he was washed with it on, may Allah bless him and grant him peace.

[Mutawwa Malik, Book 16, Hadith 27]
[Sunan Ibn Majah 1466]
[Sunan Abi Dawud 3141]

“Ali and al-Fazl were washing the Holy Prophet’s body when Ali heard a voice saying: Lift up your eyes to heaven.

Umar (RA) receives information about a battle in another Province through Wahi

“A slave-girl of Abu Bakr was pregnant. He said: It was revealed to me that it would be a girl. And she gave birth to a girl.

[Kitab al-Lama’, by Abu Nasr Abdullah al-Qausani, ch. Abu Bakr]

Abu Bakr (RA) receives Wahi

 [ ص: 176 ] قالا : خرج عمر بن الخطاب ، رضي الله عنه ، يوم الجمعة إلى الصلاة فصعد المنبر ثم صاح : يا سارية بن زنيم الجبل ! يا سارية بن زنيم الجبل

“While Umar was delivering a Khutbah from the Minbar (pulpit), he began to abruptly shout, “O, Sariyah! Move to the mountain! O, Sariyah! Move to the mountain!”

[Al Bidayah Wan-Nihayah, by Ibn Kathir, Part 10, p. 176]

Abu Dawud receives Wahi

حَدَّثَنَا مُوسَى بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ، عَنْ ثَابِتٍ، عَنْ مُطَرِّفٍ، عَنْ عِمْرَانَ بْنِ حُصَيْنٍ، قَالَ نَهَى النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم عَنِ الْكَىِّ فَاكْتَوَيْنَا فَمَا أَفْلَحْنَ وَلاَ أَنْجَحْنَ . قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُدَ وَكَانَ يَسْمَعُ تَسْلِيمَ الْمَلاَئِكَةِ فَلَمَّا اكْتَوَى انْقَطَعَ عَنْهُ فَلَمَّا تَرَكَ رَجَعَ إِلَيْهِ

Narrated Imran ibn Husayn:

The Prophet (ﷺ) forbade to cauterize; we cauterized but they (cauterization) did not benefit us, nor proved useful for us.

Abu Dawud said: He used to hear the salutation of the angels: When he c78auterized, it stopped. When he abandoned, it returned to him.

[Sunab Abi Dawud 3865]

More Wahi

Ibn Asikir narrated in his Tarikh That Sa id ibn Sinan said:

I came to Jerusalem intending to pray I entered the Masjid and, while I was praying, I heard someone with two wings who had turned to me, murmuring, ‘Glory to the One who is perpetual and eternal. Glory to the One who is Living and Self-subsistent. Glory to the Holy King Glory to the Lord of the Angels and the spirit. Glory to Allah and may He be praised Glory to the Most Exalted. Blessed and Exalted is He Then another person came murmuring the same thing. Then another one after that one. They were saying it to each other until they filled the Masjid. One of them came close to me and said, “O son of Adam’ I said, “Yes” He said, ‘Do not fear; they are Angels.’
