Caution: Translations of Quran and Ḥadīth may lead to possible misapplications and misinterpretations. This site is intended for students of sacred knowledge that are proficient in comprehending classical Arabic and have a strong foundation in Islamic sciences. Also note that religious injunctions rely on several aspects beyond what one may glean through reading individual aḥādīth.
Qurʾān Bukhārī Muslim Nasāʾī Abū Dāwūd Tirmidhī Ibn Mājah Mālik Aḥmad Dārimī Ḥākim Ibn Ḥibbān Ṭabarānī Nasāʾī's Kubrá Bayhaqī al-Luʾluʾ wa-al-Marjān Ibn Rajab's Fifty Riyāḍ al-Ṣāliḥīn Aḥmad's Zuhd Suyūṭī
tirmidhi:3223 – Ibn Abū ʿUmar > Sufyān > ʿAmr b. Dīnār > ʿIkrimah > Abū Hurayrah

that the Prophet ﷺ said: "When Allah decrees a matter in the Heavens, the angels beat their wings in submission to His saying, (sounding) as if it is a chain (being dragged) upon a rock. When the fear resides from their hearts, they say (to each other): 'What did your Lord say?' They reply: 'The truth, and He is the Most High the Great (34:23).' He said: 'And the Shayatin are one atop another.'"  

Abū ʿĪsá said that this Ḥadīth is Ḥasan-Ṣaḥīḥ.
الترمذي:٣٢٢٣ – حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي عُمَرَ حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ دِينَارٍ عَنْ عِكْرِمَةَ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ إِذَا قَضَى اللَّهُ فِي السَّمَاءِ أَمْرًا ضَرَبَتِ الْمَلاَئِكَةُ بِأَجْنِحَتِهَا خُضْعَانًا لِقَوْلِهِ كَأَنَّهَا سِلْسِلَةٌ عَلَى صَفْوَانٍ فَإِذَا فُزِّعَ عَنْ قُلُوبِهِمْ قَالُوا مَاذَا قَالَ رَبُّكُمْ قَالُوا الْحَقَّ وَهُوَ الْعَلِيُّ الْكَبِيرُ قَالَ وَالشَّيَاطِينُ بَعْضُهُمْ فَوْقَ بَعْضٍ  

قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ

Collected by Ibn Ḥibbān

ذِكْرُ وَصْفِ الْمَلَائِكَةِ عِنْدَ نُزُولِ الْوَحْيِ عَلَى صَفِيَّهِ ﷺ

ibnhibban:36 – Abū Khalīfah > Ibrāhīm b. Bashhār > Sufyān > ʿAmr b. Dīnār > ʿIkrimah > Abū Hurayrah Yablugh Bih

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ said: "When Allah decrees a matter in the heavens, the angels beat their wings in submission to His command, sounding like a chain on a rock until, when fear is lifted from their hearts, they ask, 'What did your Lord say?' They reply, 'The truth, and He is the All-Hearing, All-Knowing.' Then, someone from far away listens to their conversation. Perhaps a shooting star may overtake him before he throws it down to the one below him, or perhaps the shooting star may not reach him until he throws it down to the one below him."  

ابن حبّان:٣٦ – أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو خَلِيفَةَ حَدَّثَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ بَشَّارٍ حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ دِينَارٍ عَنْ عِكْرِمَةَ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ يَبْلُغُ بِهِ

النَّبِيَّ ﷺ قَالَ «إِذَا قَضَى اللَّهُ الْأَمْرَ فِي السَّمَاءِ ضَرَبَتِ الْمَلَائِكَةُ بِأَجْنِحَتِهَا خُضْعَانًا لِقَوْلِهِ كَأَنَّهُ سِلْسِلَةٌ عَلَى صَفْوَانٍ حَتَّى إِذَا فُزِّعَ عَنْ قُلُوبِهِمْ قَالُوا مَاذَا قَالَ رَبُّكُمْ؟ فَيَقُولُونَ قَالَ الْحَقَّ وَهُوَ السَّمِيعُ الْعَلِيمُ فَيَسْتَمِعُهَا مُسْتَرِقُ السَّمْعِ فَرُبَّمَا أَدْرَكَهُ الشِّهَابُ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَرْمِيَ بِهَا إِلَى الَّذِي هُوَ أَسْفَلُ مِنْهُ وَرُبَّمَا لَمْ يُدْرِكْهُ الشِّهَابُ حَتَّى يَرْمِيَ بِهَا إِلَى الَّذِي هُوَ أَسْفَلُ مِنْهُ
