Hadith 557
۞
3. My father, may Allah be pleased with him, said: We were told by Sa’d bin Abdullah, from Ahmad bin Muhammed bin Isa, that he said: We were told by Abu Humam, Isma’eel bin Humam, from al-Rida, peace be upon him, that he said to a man: What thing is tranquility to you? The people do not know what it is, and so they said
May Allah make us sacrifices for you, what is it? He said: A good-smelling wind that departs from Paradise which has a shape like the shape of a human and stays with Prophets, peace be upon them. It is the one that was sent down unto Ibrahim, peace be upon him, when he built the Ka’ba, and it began to take such-and-such, and upon it he built the foundation of the Ka’ba.
أبي - رضي الله عنه - قال: حدثنا سعد بن عبد الله، عن أحمد بن محمد عيسى، قال: حدثنا أبو همام إسماعيل بن همام عن الرضا عليه السلام
أنه قال لرجل: أي شئ السكينة عندكم؟ فلم يدر القوم ما هي فقالوا: جعلنا الله فداك ما هي؟ قال: ريح تخرج من الجنة طيبة لها صورة كصورة الانسان تكون مع الأنبياء عليهم السلام وهي التي أنزلت على إبراهيم عليه السلام حين بنى الكعبة فجعلت تأخذ كذا وكذا وبنى الأساس عليها.
