بَاب حَدَّثَنِي حَامِدُ بْنُ عُمَرَ عَنْ بِشْرِ بْنِ الْمُفَضَّلِ حَدَّثَنَا حُمَيْدٌ حَدَّثَنَا أَنَسٌأَنَّ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ سَلَامٍ بَلَغَهُ مَقْدَمُ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ الْمَدِينَةَ فَأَتَاهُ يَسْأَلُهُ عَنْ أَشْيَاءَ فَقَالَ إِنِّي سَائِلُكَ عَنْ ثَلَاثٍ لَا يَعْلَمُهُنَّ إِلَّا نَبِيٌّ مَا أَوَّلُ أَشْرَاطِ السَّاعَةِ وَمَا أَوَّلُ طَعَامٍ يَأْكُلُهُ أَهْلُ الْجَنَّةِ وَمَا بَالُ الْوَلَدِ يَنْزِعُ إِلَى أَبِيهِ أَوْ إِلَى أُمِّهِ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي بِهِ جِبْرِيلُ آنِفًا قَالَ ابْنُ سَلَامٍ ذَاكَ عَدُوُّ الْيَهُودِ مِنْ الْمَلَائِكَةِ قَالَ أَمَّا أَوَّلُ أَشْرَاطِ السَّاعَةِ فَنَارٌ تَحْشُرُهُمْ مِنْ الْمَشْرِقِ إِلَى الْمَغْرِبِ وَأَمَّا أَوَّلُ طَعَامٍ يَأْكُلُهُ أَهْلُ الْجَنَّةِ فَزِيَادَةُ كَبِدِ الْحُوتِ وَأَمَّا الْوَلَدُ فَإِذَا سَبَقَ مَاءُ الرَّجُلِ مَاءَ الْمَرْأَةِ نَزَعَ الْوَلَدَ وَإِذَا سَبَقَ مَاءُ الْمَرْأَةِ مَاءَ الرَّجُلِ نَزَعَتْ الْوَلَدَ قَالَ أَشْهَدُ أَنْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ وَأَنَّكَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ قَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنَّ الْيَهُودَ قَوْمٌ بُهُتٌ فَاسْأَلْهُمْ عَنِّي قَبْلَ أَنْ يَعْلَمُوا بِإِسْلَامِي فَجَاءَتْ الْيَهُودُ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَيُّ رَجُلٍ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ سَلَامٍ فِيكُمْ قَالُوا خَيْرُنَا وَابْنُ خَيْرِنَا وَأَفْضَلُنَا وَابْنُ أَفْضَلِنَا فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَرَأَيْتُمْ إِنْ أَسْلَمَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ سَلَامٍ قَالُوا أَعَاذَهُ اللَّهُ مِنْ ذَلِكَ فَأَعَادَ عَلَيْهِمْ فَقَالُوا مِثْلَ ذَلِكَ فَخَرَجَ إِلَيْهِمْ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ فَقَالَ أَشْهَدُ أَنْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ وَأَنَّ مُحَمَّدًا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ قَالُوا شَرُّنَا وَابْنُ شَرِّنَا وَتَنَقَّصُوهُ قَالَ هَذَا كُنْتُ أَخَافُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ

"Hamid bin Umar narrated to me, Bishr bin Al-Mufaddal narrated to us, Humaid narrated, Anas narrated that Abdullah bin Salam heard of the Prophet’s arrival in Madinah, peace be upon him, and asked him about three things only a prophet would know: 'What is the first sign of the Hour? What is the first food the people of Paradise will eat? Why does a child resemble his father or mother?' He said, 'Jibril just informed me.' Abdullah bin Salam said, 'He is the enemy of the Jews among the angels.' He said, 'The first sign of the Hour is a fire that drives people from east to west. The first food of Paradise’s people is the caudate lobe of a whale’s liver. As for a child, if the man’s fluid precedes the woman’s, the child resembles the father; if the woman’s fluid precedes the man’s, the child resembles the mother.' Abdullah bin Salam said, 'I testify there is no god but Allah, and you are His Messenger.' He said, 'O Messenger of Allah, the Jews are liars. Ask them about me before they know of my Islam.' The Jews came, and the Prophet, peace be upon him, said, 'What kind of man is Abdullah bin Salam among you?' They said, 'Our best and the son of our best, our most trusted and the son of our most trusted.' The Prophet said, 'What if Abdullah bin Salam embraces Islam?' They said, 'May Allah protect him from that.' He repeated, and they said the same. Abdullah bin Salam came out and said, 'I testify there is no god but Allah, and Muhammad is His Messenger.' They said, 'He’s our worst and the son of our worst,' belittling him. He said, 'This is what I feared, O Messenger of Allah.'
