English translation
2438. Bahz bin Hâkim narrated from his father, that his grandfather said: "I said: 'O Prophet of Allâh, I did not come to you until I had sworn more than this many times'" - the number of fingers on his hands - "that I would never come to you or follow your religion. I am a man who does not know anything except that which Allâh, the Mighty and Sublime, and His Messenger teach me. I ask you by the Revelation of Allâh, with what has your Lord sent you to us?" He said: 'With Islam.' I said: 'What are the signs of Islam?' He said: "To say, I submit my face to Allâh and give up Shirk, and to establish the Salâh and to pay the Zakâh.'" (Hasan)
