[Machine] An Arab man came to the Prophet ﷺ and said, "Peace be upon you, O boy from the sons of Abdul-Muttalib." The Prophet replied, "And upon you." The man said, "I am a man from your distant relatives, from the family of Sa'd bin Bakr. I am a messenger from my people to you, and I come on behalf of them. I have a strong request and a serious plea to make to you." The Prophet said, "Go ahead, O brother of the sons of Sa'd." The man asked, "Who created you and who created those before you, and who is the Creator of those after you?" The Prophet replied, "Allah." The man continued, "I ask you, by this, have you been sent as a Messenger?" The Prophet said, "Yes." The man further asked, "Who created the seven heavens and the seven earths and made provision flow between them?" The Prophet again answered, "Allah." The man asked again, "I ask you, by this, have you been sent as a Messenger?" The Prophet affirmed, "Yes." The man continued, "We have found in your book and your messengers have commanded us to pray five prayers during the day and the night according to their specified times. I ask you, by this, is this your command?" The Prophet replied, "Yes." The man added, "We have found in your book and your messengers have commanded us to take a portion of our wealth and give it back to our poor. I ask you, by this, is this your command?" The Prophet said, "Yes." Then the man said, "As for the fifth prayer, I am not asking about it nor do I have any concern about it." Then the man said, "By the One who has sent you with the truth, I will do these actions, and whoever from my people obeys me, we will also do them." Then the man left, and the Prophet ﷺ laughed until his molars were visible, then he said, "By the One in whose hand is my soul, if he is truthful, he will enter Paradise."

The man said, "I am a man from your relatives, from the tribe of Banu Saad ibn Bakr. I am the messenger of my people to you, and I have come to you with their request. My request is urgent, and my pleas to you are urgent." The Prophet ﷺ told him, "Wait, O brother of Banu Saad." The man asked, "Who created you? Who created those who came before you and who is the Creator of those who come after you?" The Prophet ﷺ replied, "Allah." The man asked, "Is it Allah who sent you?" The Prophet ﷺ answered, "Yes." The man continued, "Tell me, who created the seven heavens and the seven earths and caused provision to flow between them?" The Prophet ﷺ replied, "Allah."

The Prophet ﷺ replied, "Yes." The man also said, "We have found in your book that your messengers have commanded us to take a portion of our wealth and give it to the needy among us. Is this your command?" The Prophet ﷺ replied, "Yes." The man then said, "As for the fifth matter, I will not ask you about it, nor do I have any concern about it, which refers to indecent acts."

Whoever among my people obeys me and then turns back, I will laugh at him." Then the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Indeed, if he is truthful, he will enter paradise."
