Arabic Text
حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ ذَرٍّ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ سَعِ
يدِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لِجِبْرِيلَ عَلَيْهِ السَّلَام أَلَا تَزُورُنَا أَكْثَرَ مِمَّا تَزُورُنَا فَنَزَلَتْ { وَمَا نَتَنَزَّلُ إِلَّا بِأَمْرِ رَبِّكَ لَهُ مَا بَيْنَ أَيْدِينَا وَمَا خَلْفَنَا } إِلَى آخِرِ الْآيَةِ
