[102] 10 - (12) It was narrated that Anas bin Mālik said: "We were forbidden to ask the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ about anything (needlessly), so it pleased us when a man came from the desert people and said: 'O Muḥammad, your messenger has come to us telling us that you claim that Allāh has sent you.' the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: 'He spoke the truth.' He said: 'Who created the heavens?' He said: 'Allāh.' He said: 'Who created the earth?' He said: 'Allāh.' He said: 'Who raised these mountains and created whatever there is in them?' He said: 'Allāh.' He said: 'By the One Who created the heavens and created the earth, and raised up these mountains, has Allāh sent you?' The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: 'Yes.' He said: 'Your messenger claimed that we have to offer five prayers each day and night.' The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: 'He spoke the truth.' He said: 'By the One Who
has sent you, is it Allâh Who enjoined that upon you?' He said: 'Yes.' He said: 'Your messenger claimed that we must give Zakât from our wealth.' The Messenger of Allâh ﷺ said: 'He spoke the truth.' He said: 'By the One Who has sent you, is it Allâh Who enjoined that upon you?' He said: 'Yes.' He said: 'Your messenger claimed that we must fast the month of Ramaḍân each year.' The Messenger of Allâh ﷺ said: 'He spoke the truth.' He said: 'By the One Who has sent you, is it Allâh Who enjoined that upon you?' He said: 'Yes.' He said: 'Your messenger claimed that we must perform pilgrimage to the House, whoever is able to bear the journey.' The Messenger of Allâh ﷺ said: 'He spoke the truth.' He turned to leave, then he said: 'By the One Who has sent you with the truth, I shall not do more than this or less.' The Prophet ﷺ said: 'If he is speaking the truth, he will enter Paradise.'"
