حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ سَلاَمٍ أَخْبَرَنَا الْفَزَارِيُّ عَنْ حُمَيْدٍ عَنْ أَنَسٍ ؓ قَالَ
بَلَغَ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ سَلاَمٍ مَقْدَمُ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ الْمَدِينَةَ، فَأَتَاهُ فَقَالَ: إِنِّي سَائِلُكَ عَنْ ثَلاَثٍ لاَ يَعْلَمُهُنَّ إِلاَّ نَبِيٌّ، {قَالَ مَا} أَوَّلُ أَشْرَاطِ السَّاعَةِ، وَمَا أَوَّلُ طَعَامٍ يَأْكُلُهُ أَهْلُ الْجَنَّةِ، وَمِنْ أَىِّ شَىْءٍ يَنْزِعُ الْوَلَدُ إِلَى أَبِيهِ، وَمِنْ أَىِّ شَىْءٍ يَنْزِعُ إِلَى أَخْوَالِهِ؟ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ: «خَبَّرَنِي بِهِنَّ آنِفًا جِبْرِيلُ». قَالَ: فَقَالَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ: ذَاكَ عَدُوُّ الْيَهُودِ مِنَ الْمَلاَئِكَةِ. فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ: «أَمَّا أَوَّلُ أَشْرَاطِ السَّاعَةِ فَنَارٌ تَحْشُرُ النَّاسَ مِنَ الْمَشْرِقِ إِلَى الْمَغْرِبِ، وَأَمَّا أَوَّلُ طَعَامٍ يَأْكُلُهُ أَهْلُ الْجَنَّةِ فَزِيَادَةُ كَبِدِ حُوتٍ، وَأَمَّا الشَّبَهُ فِي الْوَلَدِ فَإِنَّ الرَّجُلَ إِذَا غَشِيَ الْمَرْأَةَ فَسَبَقَهَا مَاؤُهُ كَانَ الشَّبَهُ لَهُ، وَإِذَا سَبَقَ مَاؤُهَا كَانَ الشَّبَهُ لَهَا». قَالَ: أَشْهَدُ أَنَّكَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ. ثُمَّ قَالَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، إِنَّ الْيَهُودَ قَوْمٌ بُهُتٌ، إِنْ عَلِمُوا بِإِسْلاَمِي قَبْلَ أَنْ تَسْأَلَهُمْ بَهَتُونِي عِنْدَكَ. فَجَاءَتِ الْيَهُودُ، وَدَخَلَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ الْبَيْتَ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ: «أَىُّ رَجُلٍ فِيكُمْ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ سَلاَمٍ؟» قَالُوا: أَعْلَمُنَا وَابْنُ أَعْلَمِنَا، وَأَخْبَرُنَا وَابْنُ أَخْيَرِنَا. فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ: «أَفَرَأَيْتُمْ إِنْ أَسْلَمَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ؟» قَالُوا: أَعَاذَهُ اللَّهُ مِنْ ذَلِكَ. فَخَرَجَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ إِلَيْهِمْ فَقَالَ: أَشْهَدُ أَنْ لاَ إِلَهَ إِلاَّ اللَّهُ، وَأَشْهَدُ أَنَّ مُحَمَّدًا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ. فَقَالُوا: شَرُّنَا وَابْنُ شَرِّنَا، وَوَقَعُوا فِيهِ.

When news of the arrival of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ in Madinah reached Abdullah b. Salam, he went to him and said, “I am going to ask you about three things that only a prophet knows: What is the first sign of the Hour? What is the first food the people of Paradise will eat? What causes a child to resemble his father, and what causes him to resemble his maternal uncles?” The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, “Jibril informed me of them just now.” Abdullah said, “He is the enemy of the Jews among the angels.” The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, “As for the first sign of the Hour, it is a fire that will gather the people from the east to the west. As for the first food the people of Paradise will eat, it is the caudate lobe of a fish’s liver. As for a child’s resemblance, when a man has intercourse with a woman and his fluid precedes hers, the resemblance is to him; but if her fluid precedes his, the resemblance is to her.” He said, “I testify that you are the Messenger of Allah.” Then he said, “O Messenger of Allah, the Jews are a people of falsehood. If they learn of my acceptance of Islam before you question them, they will make false accusations against me in your presence.” The Jews came, and Abdullah entered the house. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ asked, “What sort of man is Abdullah b. Salam among you?” They replied, “He is the most knowledgeable among us and the son of the most knowledgeable among us, the best among us and the son of the best among us.” The Messenger of Allah ﷺ asked, “What would you think if Abdullah were to accept Islam?” They replied, “May Allah protect him from that.” Abdullah then came out to them and said, “I testify that there is no deity except Allah, and I testify that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah.” They said, “He is the worst among us and the son of the worst among us,” and they began speaking ill of him.
