Kitab at twheed ch16 - What the Lord has said

CHAPTER No: 16
What the Lord has said -
Allah the Most Exalted said: "Until when Fear is banished from their hearts they say: 'What is it that your Lord has said?"
They say: 'The Truth, and He is the Most High, the Most Great.' " (34:23)
And in Sahih (Al-Bukhari) it is reported that Abu Hurairah narrated that the Prophet (May the peace and blessing of Allah be upon him) said:
When Allah decrees some order in the heaven, the angels flutter their wings indicating complete surrender to His Saying, which sounds like chains being dragged on rock. And when the (state of) fear is banished from their hearts, they say, "What is that your Lord has said?" They
say: "The truth. And He is the Most High, the Most Great." (34:23) Then the stealthy .listeners (devils) hear this order, and these stealthy listeners are like this, one over the other (Sufyan, a subnarrator demonstrated that by holding his hand upright and separating the fingers). A stealthy
listener hears a word which he will convey to that which is below him, and the second will
convey it to that who is below him, till the last of them will convey it to the wizard or foreteller.
Sometimes a flame (fire) may strike the devil before he can convey it, and sometimes he may convey it before the flame (fire) strikes him, whereupon the wizard adds to that word a hundred
lies. The people will then say, "Didn't he (i.e. magician) tell such and-such a thing on such-and such date?" So that magician is said to have told the truth because of the Statement which has been heard from the heavens.
An-Nauwas bin Sam'an (May Allah be pleased with him) narrated that Allah's Messenger
(May the peace and blessing of Allah be upon him) said:
"When Allah wishes to reveal something to man, He speaks out the words to be revealed. At
this, the heavens shake strongly in fear of Him. When the Words of Allah fall upon the
inhabitants of heaven, they are taken by shock and fall prostrate. The first of them to raise his
head is the angel Jibrael/ Gabriel whom Allah speaks out of the revelation what He wishes. Then Jibrael passes by the other angels in different heavens, and is asked at each station, 'What did our Lord say, O Jibrael?' He answers: 'He said the Truth; He is the Most High, the Most Great' and all repeat the same after him. Then Jibrael moves on to the destination with the revelation, to where commanded by Allah the Most High."
