Al-Kāfi|Volume 8|Book 1|Chapter 403
حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ مَحْبُوبٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ طَلْحَةَ رَفَعَهُ قَالَ قَالَ النَّبِيُّ (صلى الله عليه وآله) الْمَلَائِكَةُ عَلَى ثَلَاثَةِ أَجْزَاءٍ جُزْءٌ لَهُ جَنَاحَانِ وَ جُزْءٌ لَهُ ثَلَاثَةُ أَجْنِحَةٍ وَ جُزْءٌ لَهُ أَرْبَعَةُ أَجْنِحَةٍ.
403. Narrated to us Ibn Mahboub, from Abdullah Bin Talha with an unbroken chain, said: The Prophet صلى الله عليه وعلى آله وسلم said: ‘The Angels are upon three parts – One group of them has two wings, and another group has three wings, and another one has four wings’.
