the watering place of the Prophet ﷺ from which he will give to the people of his community on the day of rising.)" They asked him, "Messenger of Allah! How will you recognise those of your community who come after you?" He said, "Doesn't a man who has horses with white legs and white blazes on their foreheads among totally black horses recognise which ones are his own?" They said, "Of course, Messenger of Allah." He went on, "Even so will they come on the day of rising with white marks on their foreheads, hands and feet from wudu, and I will precede them to the Hawd. Some men will be driven away from the Hawd as if they were straying camels and I shall call out to them, 'Will you not come? Will you not come? Will you not come?' and someone will say, 'They changed things after you,' so I shall say, 'Then away with them, away with them, away with them!' "

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ came to the graveyard and said: "Peace be upon you! The abode of the believing people and we, if God so wills, are about to join you. I love to see my brothers." They (the hearers) said: Aren't we your brothers, O Messenger of Allah? He said: You are my companions, and our brothers are those who have, so far, not come into the world. They said: Messenger of Allah, how would you recognise those persons of your Ummah who have not yet been born? He said: Supposing a man had horses with white blazes on foreheads and legs among horses which were all black, tell me, would he not recognise his own horses? They said: Certainly, O Messenger of Allah. He said: They would come with white faces and arms and legs owing to ablution, and I would arrive at the Cistern before them. Some people would be driven away from my Cistern as the stray camel is driven away. I would call out: Come, come. Then it would be said (to me): These people changed themselves after you, and I would say: Be off, be off. (Using translation from Muslim 249a)

I will reach the Cistern ahead of you.” They said: “O Messenger of Allah, how will you recognize those of your nation who have not yet come?” He said: “If a man has a horse with a blaze on its forehead and white feet, don’t you think that he will recognize it among horses that are deep black in color?” They said: “Of course.” He said: “On the Day of Resurrection they will come with radiant faces, hands, and feet, because of the traces of ablution.” He said: “I will reach the Cistern ahead of you.” Then he said: “Men will be driven away from my Cistern just as stray camels are driven away. And I will call to them: ‘Come here!’ But it will be said: ‘They changed after you were gone, and they kept turning on their heels.’ So I will say: “Be off with you!” (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 4306)   

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ خَرَجَ إِلَى الْمَقْبَرَةِ فَقَالَ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكُمْ دَارَ قَوْمٍ مُؤْمِنِينَ وَإِنَّا إِنْ شَاءَ اللهُ بِكُمْ لَاحِقُونَ وَدِدْتُ أَنِّي قَدْ رَأَيْتُ إِخْوَانِنَا قَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أَوَلَسْنَا بِإِخْوَانِكَ؟ قَالَ بَلْ أَنْتُمْ أَصْحَابِي وَإِخْوَانُنَا الَّذِينَ لَمْ يأْتُوا بَعْدُ وَأَنَا فَرَطُهُمْ عَلَى الْحَوْضِ قَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ كَيْفَ تَعْرِفُ مَنْ يأْتِي بَعْدَكَ مِنْ أُمَّتِكَ؟ قَالَ أَرَأَيْتَ لَوْ كَانَ لِرَجُلٍ خَيْلٌ غُرٌّ مُحَجَّلَةٌ فِي خَيْلٍ دُهْمٍ بُهْمٍ أَلَا يعْرَفُ خَيْلَهُ؟ قَالُوا بَلَى يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ قَالَ فَإِنَّهُمْ يَأْتُونَ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ غُرًّا مُحَجَّلِينَ مِنَ الْوُضُوءِ وَأَنَا فَرَطُهُمْ عَلَى الْحَوْضِ فَلَيُذَادَنَّ رِجَالٌ عَنْ حَوْضِي كَمَا يُذَادُ الْبَعِيرُ الضَّالُّ أُنَادِيهِمْ أَلَا هَلُمَّ أَلَا هَلُمَّ أَلَا هَلُمَّ ثَلَاثًا فَيُقَالَ إِنَّهُمْ قَدْ بَدَّلُوا فَأَقُولُ فَسُحْقًا فَسُحْقًا فَسُحْقًا 389 وَأَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ أنا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ مُوسَى ثنا عَلِيُّ بْنُ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ الْجُنَيْدِ نا الْأَنْصَارِيُّ يَعْنِي إِسْحَاقَ بْنَ مُوسَى نا مَعْنٌ نا مَالِكٌ بِهَذَا الْحَدِيثِ  

"لَيتَنِي لَقِيتُ إِخُوَانِي، فَإِنِّي أُحِبُّهُمْ، فَقَال أَبُو بَكْرٍ: أَلَيسَ نَحْنُ إِخْوَانَكَ؟ قَال: لَا، أَنْتُمْ أَصْحَابِى، إِخْوَانِي الَّذِينَ لَمْ يَرَوْنِي وَآمَنُوا بي وَصَدَّقونِي وَأَحَبُّونِي، حَتَّى إِنِّي أَحَبُّ إِلَى أَحَدِهِمْ مِنْ وَالِدِهِ وَوَلَدِهِ، أَلا تُحبُّ يَا أَبَا بَكْرٍ قَوْمًا أَحَبُّوكَ بِحُبِّى إِيَّاكَ؟ قَال: بَلَى يَا رَسُولَ الله، قَال: فَأَحِبَّهُمْ مَا أَحَبُّوكَ بِحُبِّى إِيَّاكَ".  

"وَدِدْتُ أنِّي لَقِيتُ إِخْوَانِي، قَالُوا: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ: أَلَسْنَا إِخْوَانَكَ؟ قَال: أَنْتُمْ أَصْحَابِي، وَإِخْوَانِي قَوْمٌ يَجِيئُون مِنْ بَعْدِي يُؤْمِنُونَ بِي وَلَمْ يَرَوْنِي، ثُمَّ قَال: يَا أبَا بَكْرٍ أَلا تُحِبُّ قَوْمًا بَلَغَهُمْ أَنَّكَ تُحِبُّنِي فَأَحَبُّوكَ بِحُبِّكَ إِيَّاى؟ فَأَحِبَّهُمْ أَحبهُمْ اللهُ".  

"يَا أَبَا بَكْرٍ: ليت أَنِّى لَقِيتُ إِخْوَانِي؛ فَإِنِّي أُحِبُّهُمْ، لَمْ يَرَوْنِي وَصَدَّقُوا بِي وَأَحَبُّونِي حَتَّى أَنِّى لأَحَبُّ إِلَى أَحَدِهِمْ مِنْ والِدِهِ وَوَلَدِهِ".  

"وَدِدْتُ أَنِّي لَقِيتُ إِخْوَانِي الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا بِي وَلَمْ يَروْنِي".  

" عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ الله ﷺ : لَيْتَنِى أَرَى إِخْوَانِى وَرَدُوا عَلَىَّ الْحَوْضَ فَأَسْتَقْبِلُهُمْ بالآنِيَةِ فِيهَا الشَّرَابُ فَأَسْقِيهُمْ مِن حَوْضِى قَبْلَ أَن يَدْخُلُوا الْجَنَّةَ، فَقِيلَ لَهُ: يَا رَسُولَ الله: أَوَلَسْنَا إِخْوَانَكَ؟ قَالَ: أَنْتُمْ أَصْحَابِى، وَإخْوَانِى مَنْ آمَنَ بِى وَلَمْ يَرَنِى، إِنِّى سَأَلْتُ رَبِّى أَنْ يقرَّ عَيْنِى بِكُمْ وَبِمَنْ آمَنَ بِى وَلَمْ يَرَنِى ".  

"لَيتَنِى أَرَى إِخوانِى وَرَدُوا عَلَى الْحَوْضِ فَأَسْتَقْبِلَهُمْ بِالآنِيَةِ فِيهَا الشَّرَابُ، فَأَسْقِيَهُمْ مِنْ حَوْضِى قَبْلَ أَنْ يَدْخُلُوا الْجَنَّةَ، قِيلَ: يَا رَسُولَ الله؛ أَلَسْنَا إِخْوَانَكَ؟ قَال: أَنْتُمْ أَصْحَابِى، وَإِخْوَانِى مَنْ آمَنَ بِى وَلَمْ يَرَنِى، إِنِّي سَأَلْتُ رَبِّى أَنْ يُقِرَّ عَينِى بِكُمْ وَبِمَنْ آمَنَ بى وَلَمْ يَرَنِى".  

"السَّلامُ عليكم دارَ قوم مؤْمنين، وإنَّا إِنْ شاءَ الله بِكُم لاحقون: وَددتُ أَنَّا قد رأَينَا إِخْوَاننَا قالوا: أَوَلَسْنَا إِخَوانَكَ يا رسولَ اللهِ؟ قال. بلْ أَنْتُم أصحابى، وإخْوَانُنَا (الذين) لَمْ يَأتوا بَعْد قالوا: كَيف تَعْرِفُ منَ لَمْ يأتِ بَعْدُ من أُمَّتِكَ؟ قال: أرأيتَ لو أنَّ رَجُلًا لَهُ خيلٌ غُرٌّ مُحَجَّلَةٌ بين ظَهْرَيْ خَيل دُهْمٍ بُهْمٍ أَلا يَعْرِفُ خَيلَه؟ قالُوا: بلى، قال: فإِنَّهم يأتون يَومَ القيامةِ غُرًّا مُحجَلين من الوُضوءِ، وأنَا فَرطُهُمْ على الحَوْضِ، ألا لَيُذَادَنَّ رجالٌ عن (حوضى) كما يذادُ البعير الضَالُّ، أُنادِيهم: أَلا هَلُمَّ، ألا هَلُمَّ فَيُقَالُ: إِنّهم قد بدَّلُوا بَعْدَكَ، فأَقولُ: فَسُحْقًا، (فَسُحْقًا، فَسُحْقًا).  

"عَنْ عَبْد اللهِ بْن أَبِى أوْفَى أَنَّ رَسُولَ ﷺ قَالَ: إِنِّى لَمُشْتَاقٌ إِلَى إِخْوَانِى، فَقَالَ عُمَرُ بْنُ الخَطَّابِ يَا رَسُولَ الله: أَلَسْنَا إِخْوَانَكَ؟ قَالَ: لا، أَنْتُمْ أَصْحَابى، إِخَوانى قَوْمٌ آمَنُوا بِى وَلَمْ يَرَوْنى، فَجَاءَ أبُو بَكْرٍ فَأَخْبَرَهُ عُمَرُ بِالَّذِى قَالَ لَهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ الله ﷺ ألا تُحِبُّ قَومًا بَلَغَهُمْ أنَّكَ تُحِبُّنِى فَأحَبُّوك فَأَحَبَّهُمُ الله - ﷻ - ".

"مَتَى أَلْقَى إِخْوَانِي؟ قَالُوا: ألَسْنَا إِخوَانَكَ (*)؟ قال: بَلْ أَنْتُم أَصْحَابِي، وإِخْوَانِي الَّذِين آمنُوا بِي ولَمْ يَرَونِي أَنَا إِلَيهِمْ بالأَشْواقِ".
