    He reported God’s messenger as saying, “The angel of death came to Moses, son of Imran and told him to answer his Lord’s summons, whereupon Moses gave the angel of death a blow in the eye and knocked it out. The angel then returned to God most high and said, `Thou didst send me to a servant of Thine who does not wish to die, and he has put out my eye.’ God restored his eye to him and said, `Go back to my servant and ask him if it is life he wants, then tell him that if he wants life he must place his hand on an ox’s back, and he will live a year for every hair which covers his hand.’ [Moses] asked what would happen after that, and when he was told that he would die he said, `Let it be now without delay. My Lord, bring me within a stone’s throw of the holy land’.” God’s messenger said, “I swear by God that if I were there, I would show you his grave beside the road at the red mound.'[*] (Bukhari and Muslim.)

    Jabir reported God’s messenger as saying, “The prophets were presented before me and I saw Moses of a type which resembled one of the men of Shanu’a.

I saw Abraham, and the nearest to him in appearance whom I have seen is your companion (meaning himself). I also saw Gabriel, and the nearest to him in appearance whom I have seen is Dihya b. Khalifa.” Muslim transmitted it.

    ‘Imran b. Husain said: I was with God’s messenger when some people of Tamim came to him. He said, “Receive the good news, B. Tamim,” and they replied, “You have given us good news, so grant us something.” Some of the people of the Yemen then entered and he said, “Receive the good news, people of the Yemen, since the B. Tamim have not accepted it.” They replied, “We have accepted it. We have come to you to become versed in the religion and to ask you about what was the beginning of this matter.” He said, “God existed and there was nothing before Him, His Throne being upon the water. He then created the heavens and the earth and inscribed everything in the memorial[*].” At that point a man came to me and said, “Catch up on your she-camel, `Imran,” for it had gone away. I therefore went off to look for it, but I swear by God that I wish it had been lost and that I had not got up and left. *i.e., the Preserved Tablet. Bukhari transmitted it.

    Ibn `Abbas reported the Prophet as saying, “On the night when I was taken up to heaven I saw Moses, a dark, tall, curly-headed man, looking as though he were one of the men of Shanu’a. I saw Jesus, a man of medium height, reddish fair, with long hair. And I saw Malik, the guardian of hell, and the dajjal (with signs which God showed him) *. Now do not be in doubt about meeting him.” *The phrase in brackets is an insertion by the transmitter who tells that God showed Muhammad miracles which the dajjal will perform (Bukhari and Muslim.)

    Abu Huraira reported God’s messenger as saying, “On the night when I was taken up to heaven, I met Moses who may be described as a lanky man with somewhat curly hair who resembled one of the men of Shanu’a; I met Jesus who was of medium height and red as though he had come out of a dimas (i.e., a hot bath); and I saw Abraham to whom I am the one among his descendants who bears the closest resemblance. I was brought two vessels, one containing milk and the other wine, and was told to take whichever oi them I wished. I took the milk and drank it and was told I had been guided to the true religion, for if I had taken the wine my people would have gone astray.” (Bukhari and Muslim.)
