6. “Prophet (S) said "While I was walking, all of a sudden I heard a voice from the sky. I looked up and saw the same angel who had visited me at the cave of Hira' sitting on a chair between the sky and the earth.”
This was the time when Muhammad (S) saw angel Jibreel (Gabriel) in his real form. And he was so huge that he covered the sky. It also shows the strength of a single angel of Allah (and there are countless angels), and how enormous and powerful he is.
7. “And then Allah revealed the following Holy Verses (of Qur'an): 'O you! (Muhammad(S)) wrapped up in garments!' Arise and warn (the people against Allah's Punishment) ... … …and desert the idols.' (Quran 74.1-5) After this the revelation started coming strongly, frequently and regularly.”
This was the FIRST order to spread the Message of Islam. “Arise and warn”. In this second revelation itself, the huge responsibility of spreading Islam was laid on prophet’s shoulders.
