باب قَوْلُهُ ‏{‏مَنْ كَانَ عَدُوًّا لِجِبْرِيلَ‏}‏

'Ikrima said, "Each of the words: Jabra and Mika and Saraf means 'slave'; and (the word) 'Il means Allah."
وَقَالَ عِكْرِمَةُ جَبْرَ، وَمِيكَ، وَسَرَافِ عَبْدٌ. إِيلْ اللَّهُ.
Sahih al-Bukhari 4713
حَدَّثَنِي إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ نَصْرٍ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ، عَنْ مَعْمَرٍ، عَنْ هَمَّامٍ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ـ رضى الله عنه ـ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ ‏ ‏‏.‏ يَعْنِي الْقُرْآنَ‏.‏
"‏ خُفِّفَ عَلَى دَاوُدَ الْقِرَاءَةُ، فَكَانَ يَأْمُرُ بِدَابَّتِهِ لِتُسْرَجَ، فَكَانَ يَقْرَأُ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَفْرُغَ ‏"
Abu Huraira:

The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "The recitation of Psalms (David's Qur'an) was made light and easy for David that he used to have his ridding animal be saddled while he would finish the recitation before the servant had saddled it."
