It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) that once we were present in the service of the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) when Surah Jumu’ah was revealed to him. When the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) recited: "wa akhareena minhum lamma yalhaqu bihim" (and others among them who have not yet joined them), someone asked, "O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), who will these people be?" The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) did not answer him, until the questioner repeated the question two or three times. At that time, Hazrat Salman Farsi (may Allah be pleased with him) was also among us. The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) placed his hand on Hazrat Salman (may Allah be pleased with him) and said, "If faith were near the Pleiades, some men from his people would attain it from there."
