I was standing with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ when a rabbi from the rabbis of the Jews came and said: "Peace be upon you, O Muhammad." He said: So I pushed him a push from which he almost fell down. The Jew said: "Why did you push me?" I said: "Will you not say 'O Messenger of Allah'?" The Jew said: "We only call him by the name by which his family named him." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "My name, by which my family named me, is Muhammad." The Jew said: "I have come to ask you about something." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "Will anything benefit you if I tell you?" He said: "I will listen with my ears." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ drew lines on the ground with a stick he had with him, then said: "Ask." The Jew said: "Where will the people be on the day when the earth is replaced by other than the earth, and the heavens?" The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "They will be in the darkness, before the bridge." He said: "Who are the first of the people to cross?" He said: "The poor among the Emigrants." The Jew said: "What will be their gift when they enter Paradise?" He said: "The extra lobe of the liver of the fish." He said: "What will be their food after it?" He said: "The ox of Paradise, which used to eat from its edges, will be slaughtered for them." He said: "What will be their drink after that?" He said: "From a spring in it called Salsabīl." He said: "You have spoken the truth." He said: "I have also come to ask you about something that none of the people of the earth knows except a prophet, or a man or two men." He said: "Will it benefit you if I tell you?" He said: "I will listen with my ears." He said: "I have come to ask you about the child." The Prophet ﷺ said: "The man's fluid is white and the woman's fluid is yellow. When the man's fluid overcomes the woman's fluid, they bear a male by the permission of Allah, the Exalted. And when the woman's fluid overcomes the man's fluid, they bear a female by the permission of Allah." He said: "You have spoken the truth, and you are indeed a prophet." Then he left. The Prophet ﷺ said: "He asked me about that which he asked me, and I had no knowledge of any of it until Allah brought it to me.
