Anas bin Malik (RA) reported that Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him stood when the sun had passed the meridian and he led the noon prayer and after observing salutations (completing the prayer) he stood upon the pulpit and talked about the Last Hour and made a mention of the important facts prior to it and then said: He who desires to ask anything from me let him ask me about it. By Allah, I shall not move from this place so long as I do not inform you about that which you ask. Anas bin Malik (RA) said: People began to shed tears profusely when they heard this from Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) and Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) said it repeatedly: You ask me. Thereupon 'Abdullah bin Hudhafa stood up and said: Allah's Messenger, who is my father? He said: Your father is Hudhafa, and Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) said repeatedly: Ask me, and (it was at this juncture that 'Umar knelt down and said): We are well pleased with Allah as our Lord, with Islam as our code of life and with Muhammad as the Messenger (of Allah). Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) kept quiet so long as 'Umar spoke. Then Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) said: (The Doom) is near; by Him, in Whose Hand is the life of Muhammad, there was presented to me the Paradise and Hell in the nook of this enclosure, and I did not see good and evil like that of the present day. Ibn Shihab reported: Ubaidullah bin 'Abdullah bin 'Utba told me that the mother of 'Abdullah bin Hudhafa told 'Abdullah bin Hudhafa: I have never heard of a son more disobedient than you. Do you feel yourself immune from the fact that your mother committed a sin which the women in the pre-Islamic period committed and then you disgrace her in the eyes of the people? 'Abdullah bin Hudhafa said: If my fatherhood were to be attributed to a black slave I would have connected myself with him.
