حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ عَنْ إِسْرَائِيلَ عَنْ سِمَاكٍ عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ كَانَتْ لِلشَّيَاطِينِ مَقَاعِدُ فِي السَّمَاءِ فَكَانُوا يَسْتَمِعُونَ الْوَحْيَ وَكَانَتْ النُّجُومُ لَا تَجْرِي وَكَانَتْ الشَّيَاطِينُ لَا تُرْمَى قَالَ فَإِذَا سَمِعُوا الْوَحْيَ نَزَلُوا إِلَى الْأَرْضِ فَزَادُوا فِي الْكَلِمَةِ تِسْعًا فَلَمَّا بُعِثَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ جَعَلَ الشَّيْطَانُ إِذَا قَعَدَ مَقْعَدَهُ جَاءَهُ شِهَابٌ فَلَمْ يُخْطِهِ حَتَّى يُحْرِقَهُ قَالَ فَشَكَوْا ذَلِكَ إِلَى إِبْلِيسَ فَقَالَ مَا هَذَا إِلَّا مِنْ حَدَثٍ حَدَثَ قَالَ فَبَثَّ جُنُودَهُ قَالَ فَإِذَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَائِمٌ يُصَلِّي بَيْنَ جَبَلَيْ نَخْلَةَ قَالَ فَرَجَعُوا إِلَى إِبْلِيسَ فَأَخْبَرُوهُ قَالَ فَقَالَ هُوَ الَّذِي حَدَثَ
مسند امام احمد بن حنبل · Hadith 2978
It was narrated that Ibn 'Abbas (RA) said: The devils had stations in the sky where they would listen to the revelation, and the stars did not move (i.e., there were no shooting stars) and the devils were not targeted. When they heard the revelation they would come down to earth and add nine words to one. When the Prophet (PBUH) was sent, a devil would sit at the station and shooting stars would come at him and keep after him until they burned him. They complained about that to Ibices who said: This can only be because something has happened. So he sent his troops out in all directions, and they saw the Messenger of Allah (PBUH) standing and praying between the two mountains of Nakhlah. They went back to Iblees and told him, and he said: This is what has happened.
