أَبِي هُرَيرَةَ ، قَالَ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى الِلَّهِ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " لَيْلَةَ أُسْرِيَ بِي لَقِيتُ مُوسَى رَجِلَ الرَّأْسِ ، كَأَنَّهُ مِنْ رِجَالِ شَنُوءَةَ ، وَلَقِيتُ عِيسَى ، فَرَجُلٌ أَحْمَرُ ، كَأَنَّهُ خَرَجَ مِنْ دِيمَاسٍ يَعْنِي مِنْ حَمَّامٍ وَرَأَيْتُ إِبْرَاهِيَمَ وَأَنَا أَشْبَهُ وَلَدِهِ بِهِ ، فَأُتِيتُ بِآنَاءَيْنِ : أَحَدُهُمَا خَمْرٌ ، وَالآخَرُ لَبَنٌ ، فَقِيلَ لِي : خُذْ أَيَّهُمَا شَئْتَ ، فَأَخَذْتُ اللَّبَنَ ، فَقِيلَ لِي : هُدِيتَ الْفطْرَةِ ، أَمَا إِنَّكَ لَوْ أَخَذْتَ الْخَمْرَ غَوَتْ أُمَّتُكَ " .
Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah, may Allah be pleased with him, narrates: The Prophet Muhammad, peace and blessings be upon him, said:
“The night I was taken on the Night Journey, I met Sayyiduna Musa, peace be upon him. He was a man whose hair was not curly. It seemed as if he belonged to the tribe of Shanu’ah (that is, he was a tall man).
I met Sayyiduna ‘Isa, peace be upon him, and he was a man of reddish complexion, as if he had just come out of a bathhouse (that is, his body and hair appeared wet).
I saw Sayyiduna Ibrahim, peace be upon him, and among his descendants, I resemble him the most.
Two vessels were brought to me, one containing wine and the other milk. I was told: Drink from whichever you wish. I chose the milk, and it was said to me: You have been guided to your natural disposition. If you had chosen the wine, your Ummah would have gone astray.”
