It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) that a Bedouin from Banu Sa'd bin Bakr came to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) and said: "Peace be upon you, O young man of Banu Abd al-Muttalib." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said to him: "And upon you be peace." He said: "I am a man from your maternal relatives, Banu Sa'd bin Bakr, and I have come to you as the messenger of my people and their delegate. I am going to ask you some questions, and my questioning will be somewhat harsh, and I will adjure you, and my adjuring will also be harsh." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said to him: "Ask, O brother of Banu Sa'd bin Bakr."
He said: "Who created you, created those before you and those who will be created after you?" He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Allah." He said: "I adjure you by Him: is it He who sent you as a messenger?" He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Yes." He asked: "Who created the seven heavens and the seven earths and made provision flow between them?" He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Allah." He said: "I adjure you by Him: is it He who sent you as a messenger?" He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Yes." He said: "We have found in your Book, and your messengers have ordered us, that we pray five prayers in the day and night at their appointed times. I adjure you by Him: is it He who ordered you to do this?" He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Yes." He said: "We have found in your Book, and your messengers have ordered us, that we fast the month of Ramadan. I adjure you by Him: is it He who ordered you to do this?" He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Yes." He said: "We have found in your Book, and your messengers have ordered us, that we take (zakah) from the surplus portions of our wealth and distribute it among our poor. I adjure you by Him: is it He who ordered you to do this?" He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Yes."
Then he said: "As for the fifth matter, I will not ask about it, nor do I have any need of it", meaning shameful deeds (fawahish). Then he said: "Behold! By the One who sent you with the truth, I will certainly act upon these (commands), and so will those of my people who obey me." Then he turned back, and the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) laughed (at his words) so much that his molar teeth became visible. Then he said: "If he has spoken the truth, he will surely enter Paradise by them."
This is how it is in the Dar al-Haramayn edition, and the correct reading is (wa Musa Abi Ja'far).
