حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَوَانَةَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو إِسْحَاقَ الشَّيْبَانِيُّ قَالَ سَأَلْتُ زِرَّ بْنَ حُبَيْشٍ عَنْ قَوْلِ اللَّهِ تَعَالَی فَکَانَ قَابَ قَوْسَيْنِ أَوْ أَدْنَی فَأَوْحَی إِلَی عَبْدِهِ مَا أَوْحَی قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ مَسْعُودٍ أَنَّهُ رَأَی جِبْرِيلَ لَهُ سِتُّ مِائَةِ جَنَاحٍ

صحیح بخاری · Hadith 3232

Narrated Abu 'Is-haq-Ash-Shaibani: I asked Zir bin Hubaish regarding the Statement of Allah: "And was at a distance Of but two bowlengths Or (even) nearer; So did (Allah) convey The Inspiration to His slave (Gabriel) and then he (Gabriel) Conveyed (that to Muhammad). (53.9-10) On that, Zir said, "Ibn Mas`ud informed us that the Prophet had seen Gabriel having 600 wings."
