It is narrated from Sayyiduna Haritha bin Nu’man (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) was sitting with Jibreel (peace be upon him) at the place called Al-Maqa’id (near the mosque). I passed by the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), greeted him with salam, and went ahead. When I returned and the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) also returned from there, he said: Did you see the man who was sitting with me? I replied: Yes. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: That was Jibreel (peace be upon him), and he replied to your salam.
