We came to the Prophet and we were young men nearly of equal ages
and we stayed with him for twenty nights. Allah's Apostle was a very
kind man and when he realized our longing for our families, he asked
us about those whom we had left behind. When we informed him, he
said, "Go back to your families and stay with them and teach them
(religion) and order them (to do good deeds). The Prophet mentioned
things some of which I remembered and some I did not. Then he said,
"Pray as you have seen me praying, and when it is the time of
prayer, one of you should pronounce the call (Adhan) for the prayer
and the eldest of you should lead the prayer. "

get up, for it is not yet dawn (when it is like this)." (Yahya, the

please you.' (2.144) Thus he was directed towards the Ka'ba. A man

good (religious deeds) that by acting on them we may enter Paradise,
and that we may inform (our people) whom we have left behind, about

said, ''To testify that none has the right to be worshipped except
Allah, the One, Who has no partners with Him, and that Muhammad is

'There is no harm in eating it, but it is not from my meals."
