It is narrated from Hazrat Anas bin Malik, may Allah be pleased with him, that some Abyssinians were dancing in front of the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, singing that Muhammad, peace and blessings be upon him, is a good man. The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, asked, "What are these people saying?" The people informed him that they are saying, "Muhammad, peace and blessings be upon him, is a good man."
