Sahih al-Bukhari 7170 (Book 97, Hadith 81)

Narrated Ibn `Abbas: The Prophet (ﷺ) said, “O Gabriel, what prevents you. from visiting us more often than you do?” Then this
Verse was revealed:–‘And we angels descend not but by Command of your Lord. To Him belongs
what is before us and what is behind us..’ (19.64) So this was the answer to Muhammad.

حَدَّثَنَا خَلاَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى، حَدَّثَنَا عُمَرُ بْنُ ذَرٍّ، سَمِعْتُ أَبِي يُحَدِّثُ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ ـ رضى الله عنهما ـ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ ‏”‏ يَا جِبْرِيلُ مَا يَمْنَعُكَ أَنْ تَزُورَنَا أَكْثَرَ مِمَّا تَزُورُنَا ‏”‏‏.‏ فَنَزَلَتْ ‏{‏وَمَا نَتَنَزَّلُ إِلاَّ بِأَمْرِ رَبِّكَ لَهُ مَا بَيْنَ أَيْدِينَا وَمَا خَلْفَنَا‏}‏ إِلَى آخِرِ الآيَةِ‏.‏ قَالَ هَذَا كَانَ الْجَوَابَ لِمُحَمَّدٍ صلى الله عليه وسلم‏.‏
