Hasan ibn al-Rabi' and Ahmad ibn Jawwas al-Hanafi narrated to us, both saying: Abu al-Ahwas narrated to us, from 'Ammar ibn Ruzayq, from 'Abdullah ibn 'Isa, from Sa'id ibn Jubayr, from Ibn 'Abbas, who said: While Gabriel was sitting with the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, he heard a sound from above him, so he raised his head and said: "This is a gate of heaven that has been opened today; it was never opened before except today." Then an angel descended from it, and he said: "This is an angel who has descended to the earth; he never descended before except today." He then gave the greeting of peace and said: "Rejoice in two lights that have been given to you, which no prophet before you was given: the Opening of the Book (Surat al-Fatihah) and the concluding verses of Surat al-Baqarah. You will not recite a single letter from them except that you will be given it."
