When I reached him, I saw that a man was engaged with him. I thought that they must have some need. By Allah! The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, stood for so long that I began to feel pity for him. Anyway, when that man left, I said: O Messenger of Allah! That man kept you standing for so long that I began to feel pity for you. The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: Did you see him? I said: Yes. The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: Do you know who he was? I said: No. The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: That was Jibreel, peace be upon him.

Then the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: If you had greeted him, he would have replied to your greeting.
