HADITH OF THE DAY
DIVINE INSPIRATION
Narrated by Aisha
Al Harith bin Hisham asked the Prophet (Peace & Blessings of Allah upon Him), "How does the Divine Inspiration come to you?" He replied, "In all these ways:
The Angel sometimes comes to me with a voice which resembles the sound of a ringing bell, & when this state abandons me, I remember what the Angel has said, & this type of Divine Inspiration is the hardest on me; & sometimes the Angel comes to me in the shape of a man & talks to me, & I understand & remember what he says."
