[Machine] "I read Surah Al-Baqarah tonight and I have a tied horse, and my son Yaḥyā is sleeping close to me, and he is a young boy. Suddenly, the horse moves, so I got up, having nothing to worry about except my son Yaḥyā. Then the horse stops, and I continue reading. Again, the horse moves, so I got up, having nothing to worry about except my son. Then the horse moves again, so I raised my head and saw something like a shadow approaching with lamps similar to lanterns coming from the sky, and it startled me, so it stopped. When morning came, I went to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and informed him. He said, "Read, O Abu Yaḥyā." I said, "I have already read, O Messenger of Allah, and the horse moves, and I have nothing to worry about except my son." He said, "Read, O Ibn Hudhayr." He said, "I have already read, and I raised my head and saw something like a shadow with lamps, and it startled me." He said, "Those were the angels who came near to listen to your voice. If you had continued reading until morning, the people would have seen them."
«قَرَأْتُ اللَّيْلَةَ بِسُورَةِ الْبَقَرَةِ وَفَرَسٌ لِي مَرْبُوطٌ وَيَحْيَى ابْنِي مُضْطَجِعٌ قَرِيبًا مِنِّي وَهُوَ غُلَامٌ فَجَالَتْ جَوْلَةً فَقُمْتُ لَيْسَ لِي هَمٌّ إِلَّا يَحْيَى ابْنِي فَسَكَنَتِ الْفَرَسُ ثُمَّ قَرَأْتُ فَجَالَتِ الْفَرَسُ فَقُمْتُ لَيْسَ لِي هَمٌّ إِلَّا ابْنِي ثُمَّ قَرَأْتُ فَجَالَتِ الْفَرَسُ فَرَفَعْتُ رَأْسِي فَإِذَا بِشَيْءٍ كَهَيْئَةِ الْظُّلَّةِ فِي مِثْلِ الْمَصَابِيحِ مُقْبِلٌ مِنَ السَّمَاءِ فَهَالَنِي فَسَكَنَتْ فَلَمَّا أَصْبَحْتُ غَدَوْتُ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَأَخْبَرْتُهُ» فَقَالَ «اقْرَأْ يَا أَبَا يَحْيَى» قُلْتُ قَدْ قَرَأْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ فَجَالَتِ الْفَرَسُ وَلَيْسَ لِي هَمٌّ إِلَّا ابْنِي فَقَالَ «اقْرَأْ يَا ابْنَ حُضَيْرٍ» قَالَ «قَدْ قَرَأْتُ فَرَفَعْتُ رَأْسِي فَإِذَا كَهَيْئَةِ الْظُّلَّةِ فِيهَا مَصَابِيحُ فَهَالَنِي» فَقَالَ «ذَلِكَ الْمَلَائِكَةُ دَنَوْا لِصَوْتِكَ وَلَوْ قَرَأْتَ حَتَّى تُصْبِحَ لَأَصْبَحَ النَّاسُ يَنْظُرُونَ إِلَيْهِمْ»
