When ʿAbdullah bin Salam heard the arrival of the Prophet ﷺ at Medina, he came to him and said, "I am going to ask you about three things which nobody knows except a prophet: What is the first portent of the Hour? What will be the first meal taken by the people of Paradise? Why does a child resemble its father, and why does it resemble its maternal uncle" Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Gabriel has just now told me of their answers." ʿAbdullah said, "He (i.e. Gabriel), from amongst all the angels, is the enemy of the Jews." Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "The first portent of the Hour will be a fire that will bring together 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 ʿAbdullah bin Salam said, "I testify that you are the Messenger of Allah." ʿAbdullah bin Salam further said, "O Messenger of Allah ﷺ! The Jews are liars, and if they should come to know about my conversion to Islam before you ask them (about me), they would tell a lie about me." The Jews came to Messenger of Allah ﷺ and ʿAbdullah went inside the house. Allah's Apostle asked (the Jews), "What kind of man is ʿAbdullah bin Salam 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." Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "What do you think if he embraces Islam (will you do as he does)?" The Jews said, "May Allah save him from it." Then ʿAbdullah bin Salam came out in front of them saying, "I testify that None has the right to be worshipped but Allah and that Muhammad is the Apostle of Allah." Thereupon they said, "He is the evilest among us, and the son of the evilest amongst us," and continued talking badly of him. (Using translation from Bukhārī 3329)

When the news of the arrival of the Prophet ﷺ at Medina reached ʿAbdullah bin Salam, he went to him to ask him about certain things, He said, "I am going to ask you about three things which only a Prophet can answer: What is the first sign of The Hour? What is the first food which the people of Paradise will eat? Why does a child attract the similarity to his father or to his mother?" The Prophet ﷺ replied, "Gabriel has just now informed me of that." Ibn Salam said, "He (i.e. Gabriel) is the enemy of the Jews amongst the angels. The Prophet ﷺ said, "As for the first sign of The Hour, it will be a fire that will collect the people from the East to the West. As for the first meal which the people of Paradise will eat, it will be the caudate (extra) lobe of the fish-liver. As for the child, if the man's discharge proceeds the woman's discharge, the child attracts the similarity to the man, and if the woman's discharge proceeds the man's, then the child attracts the similarity to the woman." On this, ʿAbdullah bin Salam said, "I testify that None has the right to be worshipped except Allah, and that you are the Messenger of Allah." and added, "O Messenger of Allah ﷺ! Jews invent such lies as make one astonished, so please ask them about me before they know about my conversion to I slam . " The Jews came, and the Prophet ﷺ said, "What kind of man is ʿAbdullah bin Salam among you?" They replied, "The best of us and the son of the best of us and the most superior among us, and the son of the most superior among us. "The Prophet ﷺ said, "What would you think if ʿAbdullah bin Salam should embrace Islam?" They said, "May Allah protect him from that." The Prophet ﷺ repeated his question and they gave the same answer. Then ʿAbdullah came out to them and said, "I testify that None has the right to be worshipped except Allah and that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah!" On this, the Jews said, "He is the most wicked among us and the son of the most wicked among us." So they degraded him. On this, he (i.e. ʿAbdullah bin Salam) said, "It is this that I was afraid of, O Messenger of Allah ﷺ.

ʿAbdullah bin Salam heard the news of the arrival of Messenger of Allah ﷺ (at Medina) while he was on a farm collecting its fruits. So he came to the Prophet ﷺ and said, "I will ask you about three things which nobody knows unless he be a prophet. Firstly, what is the first portent of the Hour? What is the first meal of the people of Paradise? And what makes a baby look like its father or mother?'. The Prophet ﷺ said, "Just now Gabriel has informed me about that." ʿAbdullah said, "Gabriel?" The Prophet ﷺ said, "Yes." ʿAbdullah said, "He, among the angels is the enemy of the Jews." On that the Prophet ﷺ recited this Holy Verse:-- "Whoever is an enemy to Gabriel (let him die in his fury!) for he has brought it (i.e. Qur'an) down to your heart by Allah's permission." (2.97) Then he added, "As for the first portent of the Hour, it will be a fire that will collect the people from the East to West. And as for the first meal of the people of Paradise, it will be the caudite (i.e. extra) lobe of the fish liver. And if a man's discharge proceeded that of the woman, then the child resembles the father, and if the woman's discharge proceeded that of the man, then the child resembles the mother." On hearing that, ʿAbdullah said, "I testify that None has the right to be worshipped but Allah, and that you are the Messenger of Allah, O, Messenger of Allah ﷺ; the Jews are liars, and if they should come to know that I have embraced Islam, they would accuse me of being a liar." In the meantime some Jews came (to the Prophet) and he asked them, "What is ʿAbdullah's status amongst you?" They replied, "He is the best amongst us, and he is our chief and the son of our chief." The Prophet ﷺ said, "What would you think if ʿAbdullah bin Salam embraced Islam?" They replied, "May Allah protect him from this!" Then ʿAbdullah came out and said, "I testify that None has the right to be worshipped but Allah and that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah." The Jews then said, "Abdullah is the worst of us and the son of the worst of us," and disparaged him. On that ʿAbdullah said, "O Messenger of Allah ﷺ! This is what I was afraid of!"

[Machine] When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ arrived in Medina, Abdullah ibn Salam was informed of his arrival while he was in his date palm tree. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ went to him and said, "I ask you about things that only a prophet knows. If you tell me about them, I will believe in you, and if you don't know them, then I know that you are not a prophet." He asked him about resemblance, the first thing the people of Paradise will eat, and the first thing that will be gathered upon the people. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Jibril informed me of them in advance." Abdullah said, "That is the knowledge of the Jews." Then he asked him about resemblance. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "When a man's water precedes the water of a woman, the resemblance goes to the man. And when the water of the woman precedes the man's water, the resemblance goes to the woman." He asked about the first thing that the people of Paradise will eat. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "The enlarged liver of a fish." He asked about the first thing that will be gathered upon the people. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Fire that will come out from the direction of the East and gather them towards the West. They will believe and say, 'We bear witness that you are the Messenger of Allah.'" Abdullah ibn Salam then said, "O Messenger of Allah, the Jews are a wicked people. If they hear about my acceptance of Islam, they will slander me. So hide me with you and send for them, and ask them about me." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ hid him and sent for the Jews, and they came to him. He asked them, "What do you say about Abdullah ibn Salam?" They said, "He is the best of us, the son of the best of us, our leader, the son of our leader, our scholar, the son of our scholar." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ asked them, "If he becomes a Muslim, will you accept Islam?" They replied, "May Allah protect him from that." Abdullah ibn Salam then came out to them and said, "I bear witness that there is no god but Allah and I bear witness that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah." They replied, "He is the most evil of us, the son of the most evil of us, the ignorant one amongst us, and the son of the ignorant one amongst us." Abdullah ibn Salam then said to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , "I told you, O Messenger of Allah, that the Jews are a wicked people."

[Machine] Abdullah ibn Salam came to the Messenger of Allah and said, "O Messenger of Allah, I ask you about three characteristics that only a prophet knows." He said, "Ask." He said, "What is the first sign of the Hour? What is the first food that the people of Paradise will eat? And from where does a child resemble his father and mother?" The Messenger of Allah said, "Jibril informed me about them before." He said, "The first sign of the Hour is a fire that will emerge from the east and gather the people towards the west. The first food that the people of Paradise will eat is the extra lobe of the liver of a fish. And as for the resemblance of a child to his father and mother, when the man's water (semen) overwhelms the water of the woman, the child will resemble the father. And when the water of the woman overwhelms the water of the man, the child will resemble the mother." He said, "I bear witness that there is no deity worthy of worship except Allah, and that you are the Messenger of Allah." He said, "O Messenger of Allah, the Jews are a deceitful people, and if they come to know about my Islam, they will slander me in your presence. So, send for them and ask them about me, saying, 'What kind of person is Abdullah ibn Salam among you?' Then send for me and ask me, 'What kind of person is Abdullah ibn Salam?' They will say, 'He is the best among us, the son of the best among us, our most knowledgeable and the son of our most knowledgeable, our most understanding and the son of our most understanding.' Ask them, 'If he becomes Muslim, will you become Muslim?' They will say, 'May Allah protect him from that.' Then, you send for them again and ask, 'What kind of person is Abdullah ibn Salam among you?' They will say, 'He is the worst among us, the son of the worst among us, our most ignorant and the son of our most ignorant.' Then, I will come to you and testify that there is no deity worthy of worship except Allah, and that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah." Ibn Salam said, "This is what I was afraid of from them."

[Machine] Abdullah ibn Salam went to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ when he first arrived in Medina and said, "I have three questions that only a prophet knows." The Prophet ﷺ said, "Ask." Abdullah asked, "What is the first sign of the Hour or the first thing that will happen at the Hour? What do the people of Paradise eat? And what causes a child to resemble his father or his mother?" The Prophet ﷺ replied, "Jibril informed me about them earlier." Jibril said, "Yes." The Prophet ﷺ said, "That is one of the enemies of the Jews from the angels." The Prophet ﷺ continued, "As for the first sign of the Hour or the first thing that will happen at the Hour, it is a fire that will come out of the East and drive people to the West. As for what the people of Paradise eat, it is the additional lobe of the liver of a fish. And as for what causes a child to resemble his father or mother, when the water of the man precedes the water of the woman, the child resembles the father, and when the water of the woman precedes the water of the man, the child resembles the mother." Abdullah said, "I bear witness that there is no god but Allah and that you are the Messenger of Allah." Abdullah said, "O Messenger of Allah, the Jews are a confused people. If they come to know about my conversion to Islam before the others, a group of them will accompany me and ask them which one among them is Abdullah ibn Salam." They would respond, "The best and most knowledgeable among us." Abdullah went back to them and said, "I bear witness that there is no god but Allah." They said, "Woe to us, he is the most evil among us." Abdullah said, "This is the person I was afraid of them realizing."

When ʿAbdullah bin Salam heard the arrival of the Prophet ﷺ at Medina, he came to him and said, "I am going to ask you about three things which nobody knows except a prophet: What is the first portent of the Hour? What will be the first meal taken by the people of Paradise? Why does a child resemble its father, and why does it resemble its maternal uncle" Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Gabriel has just now told me of their answers." ʿAbdullah said, "He (i.e. Gabriel), from amongst all the angels, is the enemy of the Jews." Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "The first portent of the Hour will be a fire that will bring together 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 ʿAbdullah bin Salam said, "I testify that you are the Messenger of Allah." ʿAbdullah bin Salam further said, "O Messenger of Allah ﷺ! The Jews are liars, and if they should come to know about my conversion to Islam before you ask them (about me), they would tell a lie about me." The Jews came to Messenger of Allah ﷺ and ʿAbdullah went inside the house. Allah's Apostle asked (the Jews), "What kind of man is ʿAbdullah bin Salam 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." Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "What do you think if he embraces Islam (will you do as he does)?" The Jews said, "May Allah save him from it." Then ʿAbdullah bin Salam came out in front of them saying, "I testify that None has the right to be worshipped but Allah and that Muhammad is the Apostle of Allah." Thereupon they said, "He is the evilest among us, and the son of the evilest amongst us," and continued talking badly of him. (Using translation from Bukhārī 3329)

When the news of the arrival of the Prophet ﷺ at Medina reached ʿAbdullah bin Salam, he went to him to ask him about certain things, He said, "I am going to ask you about three things which only a Prophet can answer: What is the first sign of The Hour? What is the first food which the people of Paradise will eat? Why does a child attract the similarity to his father or to his mother?" The Prophet ﷺ replied, "Gabriel has just now informed me of that." Ibn Salam said, "He (i.e. Gabriel) is the enemy of the Jews amongst the angels. The Prophet ﷺ said, "As for the first sign of The Hour, it will be a fire that will collect the people from the East to the West. As for the first meal which the people of Paradise will eat, it will be the caudate (extra) lobe of the fish-liver. As for the child, if the man's discharge proceeds the woman's discharge, the child attracts the similarity to the man, and if the woman's discharge proceeds the man's, then the child attracts the similarity to the woman." On this, ʿAbdullah bin Salam said, "I testify that None has the right to be worshipped except Allah, and that you are the Messenger of Allah." and added, "O Messenger of Allah ﷺ! Jews invent such lies as make one astonished, so please ask them about me before they know about my conversion to I slam . " The Jews came, and the Prophet ﷺ said, "What kind of man is ʿAbdullah bin Salam among you?" They replied, "The best of us and the son of the best of us and the most superior among us, and the son of the most superior among us. "The Prophet ﷺ said, "What would you think if ʿAbdullah bin Salam should embrace Islam?" They said, "May Allah protect him from that." The Prophet ﷺ repeated his question and they gave the same answer. Then ʿAbdullah came out to them and said, "I testify that None has the right to be worshipped except Allah and that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah!" On this, the Jews said, "He is the most wicked among us and the son of the most wicked among us." So they degraded him. On this, he (i.e. ʿAbdullah bin Salam) said, "It is this that I was afraid of, O Messenger of Allah ﷺ. (Using translation from Bukhārī 3938)
