3329. Narrated Anas: رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ: When 'Abdullāh bin Salām heard of the arrival of the Prophet ﷺ at Al-Madīna, he came to him and said, "I am going to ask you about three things which nobody knows except a Prophet: (1) What is the first portent of the Hour? (2) What will be the first meal taken by the people of Paradise? (3) Why does a child resemble its father, and why does it resemble its maternal uncle (mother's brother)?" Allāh's Messenger ﷺ said, "Jibril (Gabriel) has just now told me of their answers." 'Abdullāh said, "He (i.e., Jibril), from amongst all the angels, is the enemy of the Jews." Allāh's Messenger ﷺ said, "As for the first sign of the Hour, it will be a fire that will collect (or gather) the people from the east to the west; the first meal of the people of Paradise will be extra lobe (caudate lobe) of fish-liver. As for the resemblance of the child to its parents: If a man has sexual intercourse with his wife and gets discharge first, the child will resemble the father, and if the woman gets discharge first, the child will resemble her." On that 'Abdullāh bin Salām said, "I testify that you are the Messenger of Allāh." 'Abdullāh bin Salām further said, "O Allāh's Messenger! The Jews are liars, and if they should come to know about my conversion to Islām before you ask them (about me), they would tell a lie about me." The Jews came to Allāh's Messenger ﷺ and 'Abdullāh went inside the house. Allāh's Messenger ﷺ asked (the Jews), "What kind of man is 'Abdullāh bin Salām amongst you?" They replied, "He is the most learned person amongst us, and the best amongst us, and the son of the best amongst us." Allāh's Messenger ﷺ said, "What do you think if he embraces Islām (will you do like him)?" The Jews said, "May Allāh save him from it." Then 'Abdullāh bin Salām came out in front of them saying, "I testify that Lā ilāha illallāh, wa anna Muḥammad-ar-Rasūl Allāh, (none has the right to be worshipped but Allāh and that Muḥammad ﷺ is the Messenger of Allāh)". Thereupon they said, "He is the most wicked amongst us, and the son of the most wicked amongst us," So they degraded him and continued talking badly of him.

3329 - حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ سَلاَمٍ، أَخْبَرَنَا الفَزَارِيُّ، عَنْ حُمَيْدٍ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ، قَالَ: بَلَغَ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ سَلاَمٍ مَقْدَمُ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ المَدِينَةَ فَأَتَاهُ، فَقَالَ: إِنِّي سَائِلُكَ عَنْ ثَلاَثٍ لاَ يَعْلَمُهُنَّ إِلَّا نَبِيٌّ قَالَ: مَا أَوَّلُ أَشْرَاطِ السَّاعَةِ؟ وَمَا أَوَّلُ طَعَامٍ يَأْكُلُهُ أَهْلُ الجَنَّةِ؟ وَمِنْ أَيِّ شَيْءٍ يَنْزِعُ الوَلَدُ إِلَى أَبِيهِ؟ وَمِنْ أَيِّ شَيْءٍ يَنْزِعُ إِلَى أَخْوَالِهِ؟ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ «خَبَّرَنِي بِهِنَّ آنِفًا جِبْرِيلُ» قَالَ: فَقَالَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ ذَاكَ عَدُوُّ اليَهُودِ مِنَ المَلاَئِكَةِ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " أَمَّا أَوَّلُ أَشْرَاطِ السَّاعَةِ فَنَارٌ تَحْشُرُ النَّاسَ مِنَ المَشْرِقِ إِلَى المَغْرِبِ، وَأَمَّا أَوَّلُ طَعَامٍ يَأْكُلُهُ أَهْلُ الجَنَّةِ فَزِيَادَةُ كَبِدِ حُوتٍ، وَأَمَّا الشَّبَهُ فِي الوَلَدِ: فَإِنَّ الرَّجُلَ إِذَا غَشِيَ المَرْأَةَ فَسَبَقَهَا مَاؤُهُ كَانَ الشَّبَهُ لَهُ، وَإِذَا سَبَقَ مَاؤُهَا كَانَ الشَّبَهُ لَهَا " قَالَ: أَشْهَدُ أَنَّكَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ، ثُمَّ قَالَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنَّ اليَهُودَ قَوْمٌ بُهُتٌ، إِنْ عَلِمُوا بِإِسْلاَمِي قَبْلَ أَنْ تَسْأَلَهُمْ بَهَتُونِي عِنْدَكَ، فَجَاءَتِ اليَهُودُ وَدَخَلَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ البَيْتَ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ «أَيُّ رَجُلٍ فِيكُمْ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ سَلاَمٍ» قَالُوا أَعْلَمُنَا، وَابْنُ أَعْلَمِنَا، وَأَخْيَرُنَا، وَابْنُ أَخْيَرِنَا، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ «أَفَرَأَيْتُمْ إِنْ أَسْلَمَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ» قَالُوا: أَعَاذَهُ اللَّهُ مِنْ ذَلِكَ، فَخَرَجَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ إِلَيْهِمْ فَقَالَ: أَشْهَدُ أَنْ لاَ إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ وَأَشْهَدُ أَنَّ مُحَمَّدًا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ، فَقَالُوا: شَرُّنَا، وَابْنُ شَرِّنَا، وَوَقَعُوا فِيهِ
