English Translation

It was narrated from Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) that she said: 'I was the first to ask the Messenger of Allah ﷺ about this.' He said: 'That was Jibril. I have never seen him in his original form in which he was created except twice. I saw him descending from the sky, his immense frame filling the space between the heavens and the earth.'
