O Abul-Qasim, tell us about some matters we are going to ask you about, which no one will know except a Prophet. Among the things that they asked him was: What food did Isra'eel forbid to himself before the Torah was revealed? He said: “I adjure you by Allah, Who revealed the Torah to Moosa, do you know that Isra'eel Ya'qoob (عليه السلام) became very sick and his sickness lasted for a long time, then he vowed that if Allah healed him from his sickness, he would forbid to himself the drink that he liked best and the food that he liked best. The food that he liked best was camel meat and the drink that he liked best was camel's milk.” They said: Yes, by Allah.

He said: “I am not weeping; rather it is compassion. The believer is fine in all situations: his soul comes out of his body whilst He is still praising Allah, may He be glorified and exalted.”

Qays bin Habtar said: I asked Ibn 'Abbas (رضي الله عنه) about white earthenware, green earthenware and red earthenware. He said:

The first people to ask the Prophet (ﷺ) about that was the delegation of ‘Abdul-Qais. They said: We drink the dregs; what kind of vessels should we use?

The jinn used to listen to the Revelation; they would hear a word and add ten to it, and what they heard was true and what they added was false. [Shooting] stars were not used to target the jinn before that. When the Prophet (ﷺ) was sent, one of them would not come to a position to listen but a (shooting) star would be aimed at him, and it would burn whatever it hit. They complained about that to Iblees and he said: This can only be because of something that has happened. He sent his troops and they saw the Prophet (ﷺ) praying between the two mountains at Nakhlah. They came and told him about that and he said: This is what has happened on earth.

It was narrated that Ibn 'Abbas (رضي الله عنه) said: Some Jews came to the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) and said:

O Abul-Qasim, we are going to ask you about five things; if you tell us what we know about them, then you are indeed a Prophet (ﷺ) and we will follow you. He took a promise from them as Isra'eel took a promise from his sons when they said: "Allah is the Witness to what we have said” (Yoosuf 12:66). He said: "Let's hear it." They said: Tell us about the sign of a Prophet. He said: “His eyes sleep but his heart does not sleep.” They said: Tell us how can a woman give birth to a female or a male? He said: “The two waters meet and if the man's water prevails over the woman's, she will give birth to a male, but if the woman's water prevails, she will give birth to a female." They said: Tell us what Isra'eel forbade to himself. He said: “He suffered from sciatica and could not find anything to help him except the milk of such and such" - my father said: meaning camel's milk so he forbade (camel meat) to himself." They said: You are right. They said: Tell us about thunder. He said: “One of the angels of Allah, may He be glorified and exalted, is in charge of the clouds. In his hand is a whip of fire with which he collects the clouds and drives them wherever Allah commands.” They said: What is this sound that we hear? He said: “His voice.” They said: You are right; there is only one question left, and it is the one that will decide whether we swear allegiance to you. There is no Prophet but he has an angel who brings news to him; tell us who your angel is. He said: "Jibreel (عليه السلام).” They said: Jibreel! He is the one who brings down war, fighting and punishment; he is our enemy. If you had said Mika'eel, who brings down mercy, plants and rain, it would have been fine. Then Allah, may He be glorified and exalted, revealed the words: “Whoever is an enemy to Jibreel (Gabriel) (let him die in his fury), for indeed he has brought it (this Qur'an) down to your heart by Allah's Permission, confirming what came before it [i.e., the Tawrat (Torah) and the Injeel (Gospel) and guidance and glad tidings for the believers” (al-Baqarah 2:97).

Abul-Mutawakkil narrated that Ibn 'Abbas (رضي الله عنه) narrated that

He stayed overnight with the Prophet of Allah (ﷺ) one night. The Prophet (ﷺ) of Allah got up at night, and went out and looked at the sky, then he recited this verse from Al ‘Imran: “Verily, in the creation of the heavens and the earth, and in the alternation of night and day - up to glory to - You! (Exalted are You above all that they associate with You as partners). Give us salvation from the torment of the Fire" (Al 'Imran 3:190, 191). Then he went back to the house and cleaned his teeth with the siwak and did wudoo’, then he got up and prayed, then he lay down. Then he got up again and looked at the sky, then he recited this verse; then he went back and cleaned his teeth with the siwak and did wudoo’, then he got up and prayed, then he lay down. Then he went again and looked at the sky, then he recited this verse, then he went back and cleaned his teeth with the siwak and did wudoo’, then he got up and prayed.
