Exegesis of the saying of Allah the Exalted: "The trustworthy Spirit has brought it down" and the description of Jibril with strength and trustworthiness

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh :
The Trustworthy Spirit has brought it down نزل به الروح الأمين
[Ash-Shu'ara 26:193]
The Spirit is Jibril, and he is called a Spirit because he brings down the revelation, and the revelation is the spirit of the hearts and their life; the revelation is the spirit of the hearts, and through it the hearts have life. The evidence that the Qur'an is a spirit: answer, if you are a memorizer of the Qur'an, please.
The student:
And thus We have revealed to you an inspiration of Our command. You did not know what is the Book or [what is] faith وكذلك أوحينا إليك روحا من أمرنا ما كنت تدري ما الكتاب ولا الإيمان
[Ash-Shuraa 42:52]
.

The Shaykh : Well done, may Allah reward you. The saying of Allah the Exalted:
And thus We have revealed to you an inspiration of Our command. You did not know what is the Book or [what is] faith وكذلك أوحينا إليك روحا من أمرنا ما كنت تدري ما الكتاب ولا الإيمان
[Ash-Shuraa 42:52]
Because he (peace and blessings be upon him) was from the unlettered Arabs, but We made it a light by which We guide whom We will of Our servants. O Allah, we ask You in this gathering to guide us by it, O Lord of the worlds, and to let us die upon it, for You are capable of all things.
"The trustworthy Spirit has brought it down." From the trustworthy one? Jibril. Allah described him with trustworthiness, and Allah described him with high status, and He described him with strength. Allah described him with trustworthiness, so there is no betrayal, no addition in the speech, no omission, and he did not deliver it to anyone who was not commanded to receive it, as those who do not believe in him claim. They said that he was sent to other than the Prophet, but Jibril made a mistake and delivered it to the Prophet, may Allah protect us from that, because Jibril is trustworthy. Allah described him with strength and described him with high status. Please. Where is the description of him with strength and high status?
The student:
[Who is] possessed of power and with the Owner of the Throne, secure [in position], ذي قوة عند ذي العرش مكين
[At-Takwir 81:20]
.

The Shaykh : Yes. Well done. And He described him with generosity:
(19) [That] indeed, the Qur'an is a word [conveyed by] a noble messenger (20) [Who is] possessed of power and with the Owner of the Throne, secure [in position], إنه لقول رسول كريم ذي قوة عند ذي العرش مكين
[At-Takwir 81:19-20]
Strong in trustworthiness and preservation, with Allah he is firmly established, possessing great status and great honor. For this reason, he is the best of the messengers of the angels, and Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) is the best of the messengers of mankind. Did you understand?
