Nawawi_11_Pilgrimage, page : 4
„Tell me about the Hour of Judgement.‟ The Prophet, praise and
peace be upon him, replied: „He who is being asked knows no more
about it than the one who asks.‟ So the inquirer asked: „Tell me
about some of the signs of its approach.‟ To this the Prophet, praise
and peace be upon him, replied: „The female slave will give birth to
her master, and the bare-footed, naked, penniless goat-herders will
live arrogantly in high mansions.‟
Then the man departed, and I remained for a while. The Prophet,
praise and peace be upon him, asked me: „Umar, do you know who
the inquirer was?‟ I replied: „Allah and His Messenger, praise and
peace be upon him, know best.‟ So he told me: „It was Gabriel
who came to teach you your Religion.‟”
Muslim with a chain up to Omar son of Khattab who related this.
