Regarding Surat Wan-Najm
Jami at-Tirmidhi
أَخْبَرَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مَنِيعٍ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبَّادُ بْنُ الْعَوَّامِ، حَدَّثَنَا الشَّيْبَانِيُّ، قَالَ سَأَلْتُ زِرَّ بْنَ حُبَيْشٍ عَنْ قَوْلِهِ : (فكَانَ قَابَ قَوْسَيْنِ أَوْ أَدْنَى ) فَقَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي ابْنُ مَسْعُودٍ، أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم رَأَى جِبْرِيلَ وَلَهُ سِتُّمِائَةِ جَنَاحٍ . قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ غَرِيبٌ صَحِيحٌ .
Narrated Ash-Shaibani: "I Asked Zirr Bin Hubaish About The Saying Of Allah The Might And Sublime: And Was A Distance Of Two Bow Lengths Or Less (53:9). So He Said: 'Ibn Mas'Ud Informed Me That The Prophet (ﷺ) Saw Jibra'Il, And He Had Six-Hundred Wings.'"
