Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) asked Ka’b al-Ahbar,“What qualities of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) do you find in the Torah?”So Ka’b said: We find in the Torah: Muhammad bin Abdullah will be born in Makkah, will migrate to Taba (Madinah), his rule will extend to Syria, he will neither be foul-mouthed nor one who makes noise in the markets, he will not repay evil with evil but will forgive and overlook. His followers will be great praisers, who will praise and thank Allah Almighty in every situation, whether in hardship or ease. On every hill and elevation, they will say Allahu Akbar, they will perform ablution of their hands and feet, and will tie an izar (waistcloth) around their waists. In prayer, they will form rows just as they form rows in the battlefield. The humming in their mosques will be like the buzzing of bees, whose call will be heard in the heavens.
