It is narrated from Hazrat Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "You may ask me about anything that will happen until the Day of Judgment." A man asked, "O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)! Who is my father?" The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) replied, "Your father is Hudhafah." His mother said to him, "What was your purpose in asking this?" He replied, "I wanted to be free from what people were saying." In fact, there were some rumors about him.
