Muwatta Malik #991
Hajj
The Arabic includes the chain of narration (sanad) and the collector's commentary; the English translation shows the Prophet's words only.
وَحَدَّثَنِي عَنْ مَالِكٍ، عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ بْنِ أَبِي عَبْلَةَ، عَنْ طَلْحَةَ بْنِ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ كَرِيزٍ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ " مَا رُئِيَ الشَّيْطَانُ يَوْمًا هُوَ فِيهِ أَصْغَرُ وَلاَ أَدْحَرُ وَلاَ أَحْقَرُ وَلاَ أَغْيَظُ مِنْهُ فِي يَوْمِ عَرَفَةَ وَمَا ذَاكَ إِلاَّ لِمَا رَأَى مِنْ تَنَزُّلِ الرَّحْمَةِ وَتَجَاوُزِ اللَّهِ عَنِ الذُّنُوبِ الْعِظَامِ إِلاَّ مَا أُرِيَ يَوْمَ بَدْرٍ " . قِيلَ وَمَا رَأَى يَوْمَ بَدْرٍ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَالَ " أَمَا إِنَّهُ قَدْ رَأَى جِبْرِيلَ يَزَعُ الْمَلاَئِكَةَ " .
Yahya related to me from Malik from Ibrahim ibn Abi Abla from
Talha ibn Ubaydullah ibn Kariyz that the Messenger of Allah, may Allah
bless him and grant him peace, said, "Shaytan is not considered more
abased or more cast out or more contemptible or more angry on any day
than on the Day of Arafa. That is only because he sees the descent of
the Mercy and Allah's disregard for great wrong actions. That is
except from what he was shown on the Day of Badr." Someone said, "What
was he shown on the Day of Badr, Messenger of Allah?" He said, "Didn't
he see Jibril arranging the ranks of the angels?"
