Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: Did the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) see Jibril (peace be upon him) when he was in the cave and the chapter Iqra was revealed to him at the start of revelation?
Answer:
He came to him in the form of a man. Jibril came to him in the form of a man; he did not come to him in his celestial form except twice: once at the Lote Tree of the Utmost Boundary, and once in the plain of Makkah when the polytheists oppressed him and drove him out of Makkah. Yes.
