It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Abdur Rahman Juhani (may Allah be pleased with him), he says: We were sitting with the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) when two riders appeared from one side. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) saw them and said: "These are two men from Kindah and Madhhij." When they arrived, it turned out that indeed they belonged to the tribe of Madhhij. Then one of them came near the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) to pledge allegiance, and holding his hand, said: "O Messenger of Allah! What is the reward for a person who sees you, believes in you, affirms you, and follows you?" The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Glad tidings for him." Then he passed his hand over the blessed hand of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and withdrew. Then the second man came forward, held the hand of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) to pledge allegiance, and said: "O Messenger of Allah! What do you think about the one who believes in you, affirms you, and follows you, but does not get to see you—what is there for him?" The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Glad tidings for him, then glad tidings for him, then glad tidings for him." Then he too passed his hand over the blessed hand of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and withdrew.
