Ibn Masud on Jibril’s six hundred wings

(110) bukhari:3232Qutaybah > Abū ʿAwānah > Abū Isḥāq al-Shaybānī

I asked Zirr b. Hubaysh about the saying of Allah ﷻ: "Then he was at a distance of two bow-lengths or nearer, and He revealed to His servant what He revealed." He said: Ibn Masud narrated to us that he saw Jibril; he had six hundred wings.

(١١٠) البخاري:٣٢٣٢حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَوَانَةَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو إِسْحَاقَ الشَّيْبَانِيُّ قَالَ

سَأَلْتُ زِرَّ بْنَ حُبَيْشٍ عَنْ قَوْلِ اللَّهِ تَعَالَى: ﴿فَكَانَ قَابَ قَوْسَيْنِ أَوْ أَدْنَى * فَأَوْحَى إِلَى عَبْدِهِ مَا أَوْحَى﴾، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ مَسْعُودٍ أَنَّهُ رَأَى جِبْرِيلَ، لَهُ سِتُّمِائَةِ جَنَاحٍ.
