Translation

Abu Ali Al Ashary, from Al Hassan Bin Ali Al Kufy, from Ali Bin Mahziyar, from Usman Bin Isa, from Ibn Muskan, from the one who reported it, (It has been narrated) from Abu Abdullah^asws having said: ‘When Dawood^as paused at the Pausing Station in Arafat, looked at the people and their abundance. So he^as climbed upon the mountain, and started supplicating. So when he^as had completed his^as rituals, Jibraeel^as came over to him and said to him^as: ‘O Dawood^as! Your^as Lord^azwj is Saying to you^as: “Why did you^as ascend the mountain? Do you^as think that a voice from the voices would be concealed from Me^azwj?” Then he^as went with him^as to the sea to Jeddah. So he^as swam with him^as in the sea for a travel distance of forty mornings in the land. So there was a rock, and he (Jibraeel^as split it and there was an insect in it. So he^as said to him^as: ‘O Dawood^as! Your^as Lord^azwj is Saying to you^as: “I^azwj can Hear the voice of this one in the inside of this rock at the bottom of this sea, so do you^as think that a voice from the voices would be concealed from Me^azwj?”’
