Arabic hadith text

حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْيَمَانِ، أَخْبَرَنَا شُعَيْبٌ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو سَلَمَةَ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، أَنَّ عَائِشَةَ ـ رضى الله عنها ـ زَوْجَ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَتْ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏"‏ يَا عَائِشَ هَذَا جِبْرِيلُ يُقْرِئُكِ السَّلاَمَ ‏"‏‏.‏ قُلْتُ وَعَلَيْهِ السَّلاَمُ وَرَحْمَةُ اللَّهِ‏.‏ قَالَتْ وَهْوَ يَرَى مَا لاَ نَرَى‏.‏

Translation

Abu al-Yaman narrated to us: Shuayb informed us, from al-Zuhri, who said: Abu Salamah ibn Abd al-Rahman told me that Aishah, may Allah be pleased with her, the wife of the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said, ‘Aishah, this is Gabriel conveying greetings of peace to you.’ I replied, ‘And upon him be peace and the mercy of Allah.’ She said: He saw what we did not see.
