[Machine] About Abdullah's statement, may Allah be exalted, {The heart did not lie about what it saw} [Surah An-Najm: 11], he said: "The Messenger of Allah ﷺ saw Gabriel in a form with his wings that filled the space between the heavens and the earth." This statement is considered authentic according to the conditions of the two Sheikhs (Al-Bukhari and Muslim), but they didn't include it in their collections.

الحاكم:٣٧٤٦ – أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو زَكَرِيَّا الْعَنْبَرِيُّ ثنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ السَّلَامِ ثنا إِسْحَاقُ أَنْبَأَ يَحْيَى بْنُ آدَمَ ثنا إِسْرَائِيلُ عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ يَزِيدَ

عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ فِي قَوْلِهِ ﷻ {مَا كَذَبَ الْفُؤَادُ مَا رَأَى} [النجم 11] قَالَ «رَأَى رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ جِبْرِيلُ فِي حُلَّةِ رَفْرَفٍ قَدْ مَلَأَ مَا بَيْنَ السَّمَاءِ وَالْأَرْضِ» صَحِيحٌ عَلَى شَرْطِ الشَّيْخَيْنِ وَلَمْ يُخَرِّجَاهُ على شرط البخاري ومسلم
