Commencement of the Divine Revelation to Allah’s Messenger (saws) was in the form of good dreams

The commencement of the Divine Inspiration to Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) was in the form of good righteous (true) dreams in his sleep. He never had a dream but that it came true like bright day light. He used to go in seclusion (the cave of) Hira where he used to worship(Allah Alone) continuously for many (days) nights. He used to take with him the journey food for that (stay) and then come back to (his wife) Khadija رضی اللہ عنہا to take his food like-wise again for another period to stay, till suddenly the Truth descended upon him while he was in the cave of Hira. The angel came to him in it and asked him to read. The Prophet (ﷺ) replied, "I do not know how to read." (The Prophet (ﷺ) added), "The angel caught me (forcefully) and pressed me so hard that I could not bear it anymore. He then released me and again asked me to read, and I replied, "I do not know how to read," whereupon he caught me again and pressed me a second time till I could not bear it anymore. He then released me and asked me again to read, but again I replied, "I do not know how to read (or, what shall I read?)." Thereupon he caught me for the third time and pressed me and then released me and said, "Read: In the Name of your Lord, Who has created (all that exists). Has created man from a clot. Read and Your Lord is Most Generous...up to..... ..that which he knew not." (96.15) Then Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) returned with the Inspiration, his neck muscles twitching with terror till he entered upon Khadija رضی اللہ عنہا and said, "Cover me! Cover me!" They covered him till his fear was over and then he said, "O Khadija رضی اللہ عنہا , what is wrong with me?" Then he told her everything that had happened and said, 'I fear that something may happen to me." Khadija رضی اللہ عنہا said, 'Never! But have the glad tidings, for by Allah, Allah will never disgrace you as you keep good reactions with your Kith and kin, speak the truth, help the poor and the destitute, serve your guest generously and assist the deserving, calamityafflicted ones." Khadija رضی اللہ عنہا then accompanied him to (her cousin) Waraqa bin Naufal bin Asad bin `Abdul `Uzza bin Qusai. Waraqa was the son of her paternal uncle, i.e., her father's brother, who during the Pre-Islamic Period became a Christian and used to write the Arabic writing and used to write of the Gospels in Arabic as much as Allah wished him to write. He was an old man and had lost his eyesight. Khadija رضی اللہ عنہا said to him, "O my cousin! Listen to the story of your nephew." Waraqa asked, "O my nephew! What have you seen?" The Prophet (ﷺ) described whatever he had seen. Waraqa said, "This is the same Namus (i.e., Gabriel, the Angel who keeps the secrets) whom Allah had sent to Moses. I wish I were young and could live up to the time when your people would turn you out." Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) asked, "Will they turn me out?" Waraqa replied in the affirmative and said: "Never did a man come with something similar to what you have brought but was treated with hostility. If I should remain alive till the day when you will be turned out then I would support you strongly." But after a few days Waraqa died and the Divine Inspiration was also paused for a while and the Prophet (ﷺ) became so sad as we have heard that he intended several times to throw himself from the tops of high mountains and every time he went up the top of a mountain in order to throw himself down, Gabriel would appear before him and say, "O Muhammad! You are indeed Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) in truth" whereupon his heart would become quiet and he would calm down and would return home. And whenever the period of the coming of the inspiration used to become long, he would do as before, but when he used to reach the top of a mountain, Gabriel would appear before him and say to him what he had said before. (Ibn `Abbas رضی اللہ عنہما said regarding the meaning of: 'He it is that Cleaves the daybreak (from the darkness)' (6.96) that Al-Asbah. means the light of the sun during the day and the light of the moon at night).

Die göttliche Offenbarung an den Gesandten Allahs (ﷺ) begann in Form von guten, aufrichtigen (wahren) Träumen in seinem Schlaf. Er hatte keinen Traum, der sich nicht wie das helle Tageslicht erfüllte. Er pflegte sich in die Höhle Hira zurückzuziehen, wo er viele Nächte ununterbrochen [Allah allein] anbetete. Er nahm seinen Reiseproviant für diesen Aufenthalt mit, kehrte dann zu Khadija (رضي الله عنها) zurück, um erneut Proviant für eine weitere Zeit zu holen, bis ihm die Wahrheit plötzlich herabgesandt wurde, als er sich in der Höhle Hira befand. Der Engel kam dort zu ihm und befahl ihm zu lesen. Der Prophet (ﷺ) antwortete: „Ich kann nicht lesen.“ [Der Prophet (ﷺ) fügte hinzu:] „Der Engel ergriff mich (mit Kraft) und drückte mich so fest, dass ich es kaum noch ertragen konnte. Dann ließ er mich los und forderte mich erneut auf zu lesen, worauf ich erwiderte: ‚Ich kann nicht lesen.‘ Er ergriff mich ein zweites Mal und drückte mich, bis ich es kaum noch ertragen konnte. Er ließ mich dann los und forderte mich erneut auf zu lesen, doch ich antwortete abermals: ‚Ich kann nicht lesen‘. Daraufhin ergriff er mich ein drittes Mal, drückte mich und ließ mich frei und sprach: „Lies! Im Namen deines Herrn, Der erschaffen hat, den Menschen aus einem Blutklumpen erschaffen hat. Lies! Und dein Herr ist der Edelste... bis zu... Das, was er nicht wusste.“ (96:1-5). Daraufhin kehrte der Gesandte Allahs (ﷺ) mit der Offenbarung zurück, wobei seine Nackenmuskeln vor Schrecken zuckten, bis er Khadija (رضي الله عنها) erreichte und rief: „Hüllt mich ein! Hüllt mich ein!“ Sie hüllten ihn ein, bis seine Angst vorüber war. Khadija (رضي الله عنها) sagte: „Niemals! Freue dich! Bei Allah, Allah wird dich niemals in Verlegenheit bringen, denn du pflegst gute Beziehungen zu deinen Verwandten, sprichst die Wahrheit, hilfst den Armen und Bedürftigen, bedienst deine Gäste großzügig und unterstützt die vom Unglück Betroffenen.“ Khadija (رضي الله عنها) begleitete ihn daraufhin zu ihrem Cousin Waraqa ibn Naufal, der in der vorislamischen Zeit Christ geworden war und [die arabische Schrift] schrieb und so viel vom Evangelium auf Arabisch niederschrieb, wie Allah es wollte. Er war ein alter Mann, der sein Augenlicht verloren hatte. Waraqa sagte: „Das ist derselbe Namus (d. h. Gabriel, der Engel, der die Geheimnisse hütet), den Allah zu Moses gesandt hatte. Ich wünschte, ich wäre jung und könnte die Zeit erleben, in der dein Volk dich vertreiben wird.“ Der Gesandte Allahs (ﷺ) fragte: „Werden sie mich vertreiben?“ Waraqa bejahte und sagte: „Niemals kam ein Mann mit etwas Ähnlichem wie dem, was du gebracht hast, ohne dass ihm Feindseligkeit entgegengebracht wurde.“ Nach einigen Tagen starb Waraqa, und die göttliche Offenbarung pausierte für eine Weile. Der Prophet (ﷺ) wurde so traurig, dass er, wie wir gehört haben, mehrmals beabsichtigte, sich von den Gipfeln hoher Berge zu stürzen. Jedes Mal, wenn er auf einen Berggipfel stieg, um dies zu tun, erschien ihm Gabriel und sagte: „O Muhammad! Du bist wahrlich der Gesandte Allahs (ﷺ) in Wahrheit!“ Woraufhin sein Herz beruhigt wurde, und er kehrte heim. Immer wenn die Periode der Offenbarung länger wurde, tat er dasselbe, doch wenn er den Gipfel des Berges erreichte, erschien ihm Gabriel und sagte ihm dasselbe, was er zuvor gesagt hatte.

Allah Resûlü'ne (ﷺ) vahy-i ilahinin başlangıcı, uykudayken gördüğü hayırlı, sâlih (doğru) rüyalar şeklindeydi. Gördüğü her rüya, aydınlık gün ışığı gibi gerçekleşirdi. O, tek başına kalmayı (Hira mağarasına gitmeyi) âdet edinmişti; orada birçok gece boyunca kesintisiz ibadet ederdi. Yanına yolculuk yiyeceğini alır, sonra da yine bir başka süre için yiyecek almak üzere (eşi) Hatice'nin (رضي الله عنها) yanına dönerdi. Bu böyle devam etti, tâ ki Hira mağarasında iken ona birdenbire Hak (Vahiy) gelene kadar. Melek, mağarada ona geldi ve okumasını emretti. Peygamber (ﷺ) şöyle cevap verdi: “Ben okuma bilmem.” [Peygamber (ﷺ) devam etti:] "Melek beni (kuvvetle) yakaladı ve gücüm yetmeyecek derecede sıkıştırdı. Sonra beni bıraktı ve tekrar okumamı istedi. Ben yine: 'Ben okuma bilmem' diye cevap verdim. Bunun üzerine beni ikinci kez yakalayıp, gücüm yetmeyecek derecede sıktı. Sonra beni serbest bıraktı ve yine okumamı istedi, ancak ben yine: 'Ben okuma bilmem' diye cevap verdim. Üçüncü defa beni yakalayıp sıktı, sonra beni bıraktı ve şöyle dedi: “Yaratan Rabbinin adıyla oku! O, insanı bir alaktan (kan pıhtısından) yarattı. Oku! Rabbin en cömert olandır... ta ki... bilmediğini öğretti.” (96:1-5). Bunun üzerine Allah Resûlü (ﷺ), boyun kasları korkudan titreyerek Vahiy ile geri döndü ve Hatice’nin (رضي الله عنها) yanına girdi ve “Beni örtün! Beni örtün!” dedi. Korkusu geçinceye kadar onu örttüler. Sonra şöyle dedi: “Ey Hatice! Bana ne oluyor?” Olup biten her şeyi anlattı ve “Korkarım ki başıma bir şey gelecek” dedi. Hatice (رضي الله عنها) şöyle dedi: “Asla! Müjdeler olsun sana! Allah’a yemin olsun ki, sen akrabanla iyi geçinir, doğru konuşur, fakire ve düşküne yardım eder, misafirine cömertçe ikram eder ve musibete uğramış hak sahiplerine yardım edersin. Allah seni asla utandırmaz.” Hatice (رضي الله عنها) daha sonra onu (amcasının oğlu) Varaka bin Nevfel'in yanına götürdü. Varaka, Cahiliye döneminde Hristiyan olmuş, Arapça yazı yazan ve Allah’ın dilediği kadar İncil’den Arapça olarak yazan bir kimseydi. Kendisi yaşlı ve âmâ olmuştu. Varaka şöyle dedi: “Bu, Allah’ın Musa’ya gönderdiği Namus’tur (yani sırları koruyan Cebrail’dir). Keşke genç olsaydım da, kavminin seni yurdundan çıkaracağı zamanı görseydim.” Allah Resûlü (ﷺ) sordu: “Beni yurdumdan çıkaracaklar mı?” Varaka evet anlamında cevap verdi ve dedi ki: “Senin getirdiğine benzer bir şey getiren hiçbir kimseye düşmanlık edilmemiş değildir.” Birkaç gün sonra Varaka vefat etti ve Vahiy de bir süreliğine kesildi. İşittiğimize göre, Peygamber (ﷺ) bundan dolayı o kadar üzülmüştü ki, birkaç kez kendisini yüksek dağların tepelerinden atmayı düşündü. Ne zaman kendisini atmak için bir dağın tepesine çıksa, Cebrail ona görünüp: “Ey Muhammed! Sen gerçekten Allah’ın elçisisin!” derdi. Bunun üzerine kalbi yatışır, sakinleşir ve evine dönerdi. Vahyin gelme süresi ne zaman uzasa, yine aynısını yapardı; fakat dağın tepesine ulaştığında Cebrail ona görünüp daha önce söylediklerini söylerdi.
