It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) once came to the graveyard and said: 'As-salamu alaykum dara qawmin mu'minin, wa inna in sha'a Allahu bikum lahiqun' (Peace be upon you, O dwellers of the abode of believing people, and we, if Allah wills, will join you). (Then he said:) "I wish that we could see our brothers!" The Companions (may Allah be pleased with them) said: O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), are we not your brothers? He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "You are my Companions; our brothers are those who have not yet come (into the world)." They said: O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), how will you recognise those of your Ummah who have not yet been born? He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Tell me, if a man had horses with white blazes and white legs among horses that were completely black, would he not recognise his horses?" They said: Of course, O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)! He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Then they will come on the Day of Resurrection with shining foreheads and shining hands and feet from the traces of ablution, and I will be their forerunner (the one who receives them) at the Pond (al-Kawthar). Beware! Some people will be driven away from my Pond just as a stray camel is driven away, and I will call out to them: 'Come here!' Then it will be said to me: 'They changed (the way of the religion) after you.' So I will say: 'Suhqan suhqan' (Away with them, away with them)."
