Sahih al-Bukhari 6249 (Book 79, Hadith 23) #6002
Recognizing Angel Gabriel

SUMMARY: This hadith is about the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) and his wife Aisha, and how she was able to recognize the angel Gabriel when he came to greet her.

Narrated 'Aisha: Allah's Messenger said, "O 'Aisha! This is Gabriel sending his greetings to you". I said, "Peace, and Allah's Mercy be on him (Gabriel). You see what we do not see". (She was addressing Allah's Apostle).
حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ مُقَاتِلٍ، أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ، أَخْبَرَنَا مَعْمَرٌ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ ـ رضى الله عنها ـ قَالَتْ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ‏ "‏ يَا عَائِشَةُ هَذَا جِبْرِيلُ يَقْرَأُ عَلَيْكِ السَّلاَمَ ‏"‏‏.‏ قَالَتْ قُلْتُ وَعَلَيْهِ السَّلاَمُ وَرَحْمَةُ اللَّهِ، تَرَى مَا لاَ نَرَى‏.‏ تُرِيدُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ‏.‏ تَابَعَهُ شُعَيْبٌ‏.‏ وَقَالَ يُونُسُ وَالنُّعْمَانُ عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ وَبَرَكَاتُهُ‏.‏

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) and his wife Aisha. It tells us that one day an angel named Gabriel came to greet them both. The Prophet recognized him immediately but Aisha did not know who he was until the Prophet told her it was Gabriel. She then said a prayer of peace for him. This hadith teaches us that we should always be respectful towards those who come to visit us even if we do not know them because they may be angels sent by Allah! We should also have faith in Allah's power and trust that He will protect us from harm even if we cannot see it ourselves.
