(He -asws said): ‘And from His -azwj Signs is that he -saww was an orphan, poor, shepherd, employed, had not learned a book, and did not come and go to a teacher, then he -saww came with the Quran wherein were the stories of the Prophets -as and their -as news, letter by letter, and news of the ones passed away and one remaining up to the Day of Judgment.’’ [14] Why did Rasool Allah -saww Ask Angel Jibraeel -as وَ عَنْ أَبَانٍ عَنْ سُلَيْمٍ قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ عَلِيَّ بْنَ أَبِي طَالِبٍ ع وَ سَأَلَهُ رَجُلٌ عَنِ الْإِيمَانِ فَقَالَ يَا أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ أَخْبِرْنِي عَنِ الْإِيمَانِ لَا أَسْأَلُ عَنْهُ أَحَداً بَعْدَكَ And from Aban, from Suleym who said, ‘I heard Ali -asws Bin Abu Talib -asws , and a man asked him -asws about the Eman.
He said, ‘O Amir Al-Momineen -asws ! Inform me about Al-Eman. I don’t have to ask anyone about it after you ‑asws .’ قَالَ جَاءَ رَجُلٌ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ص فَسَأَلَهُ عَنْ مِثْلِ مَا سَأَلْتَنِي عَنْهُ فَقَالَ لَهُ مِثْلَ مَقَالَتِكَ فَأَخَذَ يُحَدِّثُهُ ثُمَّ قَالَ لَهُ افْعَلْ آمَنْتَ ‘He -asws said: ‘A man came to the Prophet -saww and asked him -saww about similar to what you have asked me -asws about. He said to him -saww similar to your words, so he -saww went on to narrate to him.
Then he -saww said to him, ‘Do so, and you have believed.’’ ثُمَّ أَقْبَلَ عَلِيٌّ ع عَلَى الرَّجُلِ فَقَالَ أَ مَا عَلِمْتَ أَنَّ جَبْرَئِيلَ أَتَى رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ص فِي صُورَةِ آدَمِيٍّ فَقَالَ لَهُ مَا الْإِسْلَامُ ‘Then Ali -asws faced towards the man. He -asws said: ‘Don’t you know that Jibraeel -as had come to Rasool-Allah -saww in the image of a human being.
