A'isha, the wife of the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ), reported:The first (form) with which was started the revelation to the Messenger of Allah was the true vision in sleep. And he did not see any vision but it came like the bright gleam of dawn. Thenceforth solitude became dear to him and he used to seclude himself in the cave of Hira', where he would engage in tahannuth (and that is a worship for a number of nights) before returning to his family and getting provisions again for this purpose. He would then return to Khadija and take provisions for a like period, till Truth came upon him while he was in the cave of Hira'. There came to him the angel and said: Recite, to which he replied: I am not lettered. He took hold of me [the Apostle said] and pressed me, till I was hard pressed; thereafter he let me off and said: Recite. I said: I am not lettered. He then again took hold of me and pressed me for the second time till I was hard pressed and then let me off and said: Recite, to which I replied: I am not lettered. He took hold of me and pressed me for the third time, till I was hard pressed and then let me go and said: Recite in the name of your Lord Who created, created man from a clot of blood. Recite. And your most bountiful Lord is He Who taught the use of pen, taught man what he knew not (al-Qur'an, xcvi. 1-4). Then the Prophet returned therewith, his heart was trembling, and he went to Khadija and said: Wrap me up, wrap me up! So they wrapped him till the fear had left him. He then said to Khadija: O Khadija! what has happened to me? and he informed her of the happening, saying: I fear for myself. She replied: It can't be. Be happy. I swear by Allah that He shall never humiliate you. By Allah, you join ties of relationship, you speak the truth, you bear people's burden, you help the destitute, you entertain guests, and you help against the vicissitudes which affect people. Khadija then took him to Waraqa b. Naufal b. Asad b. 'Abd al-'Uzza, and he was the son of Khadija's uncle, i. e., the brother of her father. And he was the man who had embraced Christianity in the Days of Ignorance (i. e. before Islam) and he used to write books in Arabic and, therefore, wrote Injil in Arabic as God willed that he should write. He was very old and had become blind Khadija said to him: O uncle! listen to the son of your brother. Waraqa b. Naufal said: O my nephew! what did you see? The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ), then, informed him what he had seen, and Waraqa said to him: It is namus that God sent down to Musa. Would that I were then (during your prophetic career) a young man. Would that I might be alive when your people would expel you! The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: Will they drive me out? Waraqa said: Yes. Never came a man with a like of what you have brought but met hostilities. If I see your day I shall help you wholeheartedly

Rapporté par Aïcha, l’épouse du Messager d’Allah ﷺ : La première forme de révélation reçue par le Messager d’Allah ﷺ était une vision véridique pendant son sommeil. Il ne voyait aucune vision sans qu’elle ne se réalise aussi clairement que la lumière de l’aube. Après cela, il a commencé à aimer la solitude et se retirait dans la grotte de Hira, où il se consacrait à l’adoration pendant plusieurs nuits avant de retourner auprès de sa famille pour prendre des provisions et repartir. Il retournait donc chez Khadija pour prendre des provisions pour une période similaire, jusqu’à ce que la Vérité lui soit révélée alors qu’il était dans la grotte de Hira. L’ange est venu à lui et a dit : « Récite. » Il a répondu : « Je ne sais pas lire. » [Le Prophète a dit :] Il m’a saisi et m’a serré fortement, puis m’a relâché et a dit : « Récite. » J’ai dit : « Je ne sais pas lire. » Il m’a alors saisi et serré une deuxième fois, puis m’a relâché et a dit : « Récite. » J’ai répondu : « Je ne sais pas lire. » Il m’a saisi et serré une troisième fois, puis m’a relâché et a dit : « Récite au nom de ton Seigneur qui a créé, qui a créé l’homme d’une adhérence. Récite ! Ton Seigneur est le Très-Généreux, qui a enseigné par la plume, a appris à l’homme ce qu’il ne savait pas. » (Coran 96:1-4) Le Prophète est alors rentré, le cœur tremblant, et il est allé chez Khadija en disant : « Couvrez-moi, couvrez-moi ! » Ils l’ont couvert jusqu’à ce que sa peur disparaisse. Il a dit à Khadija : « Ô Khadija, que m’arrive-t-il ? » et il lui a raconté ce qui s’était passé, en disant : « J’ai peur pour moi. » Elle a répondu : « Non, réjouis-toi ! Par Allah, Allah ne t’humiliera jamais. Par Allah, tu maintiens les liens de parenté, tu dis la vérité, tu portes les fardeaux des autres, tu aides les nécessiteux, tu accueilles les invités et tu soutiens dans l’adversité. » Khadija l’a ensuite emmené chez Waraqa ibn Nawfal, fils de l’oncle de Khadija, qui avait embrassé le christianisme à l’époque de l’ignorance et écrivait des livres en arabe, y compris l’Évangile, comme Allah le voulait. Il était très âgé et devenu aveugle. Khadija a dit : « Ô oncle, écoute le fils de ton frère. » Waraqa a dit : « Ô mon neveu, que vois-tu ? » Le Messager d’Allah ﷺ lui a raconté ce qu’il avait vu, et Waraqa a dit : « C’est le même Ange (Namus) qu’Allah a envoyé à Moussa. Si seulement j’étais jeune à ce moment-là ! Si seulement je vivais quand ton peuple t’expulsera ! » Le Messager d’Allah ﷺ a demandé : « Vont-ils vraiment me chasser ? » Waraqa a répondu : « Oui. Jamais un homme n’est venu avec ce que tu as apporté sans rencontrer l’hostilité. Si je vis jusqu’à ce jour, je t’aiderai de toutes mes forces. »
