The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) replied, "Yes, and he was spoken to." He asked, "What was the time span between him and Sayyiduna Nuh (peace be upon him)?" The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "Ten (10) centuries." The narrator named Abu Tawbah's name is Rabi' bin Nafi'.
