Sayings
The Arabic includes the chain of narration (sanad) and the collector's commentary; the English translation shows the Prophet's words only.
حَدَّثَنَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ عُمَرَ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْوَارِثِ، عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ زَيْدٍ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي يُوسُفُ بْنُ مِهْرَانَ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ: الْمَجَرَّةُ: بَابٌ مِنْ أَبْوَابِ السَّمَاءِ، وَأَمَّا قَوْسُ قُزَحٍ: فَأَمَانٌ مِنَ الْغَرَقِ بَعْدَ قَوْمِ نُوحٍ عَلَيْهِ السَّلامُ.
Ibn Abbas said, "The Milky Way is one of the gates of the heavens.
The rainbow is security from being destroyed by flood after the people
of Nuh, peace be upon him."
