قَالَ رَسُولُ اَللَّهِ صَلَّى اَللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَ آلِهِ: «مَا زَالَ جَبْرَئِيلُ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ يُوصِينِي بِالسِّوَاكِ حَتَّى خَشِيتُ أَنْ أُحْفِيَ أَوْ أَدْرَدَ وَ مَا زَالَ يُوصِينِي بِالْجَارِ حَتَّى ظَنَنْتُ أَنَّهُ سَيُوَرِّثُهُ وَ مَا زَالَ يُوصِينِي بِالْمَمْلُوكِ حَتَّى ظَنَنْتُ أَنَّهُ سَيَضْرِبُ لَهُ أَجَلاً يُعْتَقُ فِيهِ. وَ فِي خَبَرٍ آخَرَ: «وَ مَا زَالَ يُوصِينِي بِالْمَرْأَةِ حَتَّى ظَنَنْتُ أَنَّهُ لاَ يَنْبَغِي طَلاَقُهَا.
The Messenger of Allah (saws) said: "Archangel Jibril (a.s) kept advising me about the miswak until I feared I might wear down my teeth or make them fall out. And Archangel Jibril (a.s) continued to advise me about the neighbor until I thought he would make him an heir. And Archangel Jibril (a.s) continued to advise me about servants until I thought he would set a term for them to be freed." In another report, "And Archangel Jibril (a.s) continued to advise me about women until I thought that divorce would not be appropriate for them."
