While we were one day sitting with the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) there appeared before us a man dressed in extremely white clothes and with very black hair. No traces of journeying were visible on him, and none of us knew him.

He sat down close by the Prophet (ﷺ) rested his knees against the knees of the Prophet (ﷺ) and placed his palms over his thighs, and said: 'O Muhammad! Inform me about Islam.'

The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) replied: 'Islam is that you should testify that there is no deity worthy of worship except Allah and that Muhammad is His Messenger (ﷺ), that you should perform salah (ritual prayer), pay the zakah, fast during Ramadan, and perform Hajj (pilgrimage) to the House (the Ka`bah at Makkah), if you can find a way to it (or find the means for making the journey to it).' He said: 'You have spoken the truth.' We were astonished at his thus questioning him (ﷺ) and then telling him that he was right, but he went on to say, 'Inform me about Iman (faith).' He (the Prophet) answered, 'It is that you believe in Allah and His angels and His Books and His Messengers and in the Last Day, and in fate (qadar), both in its good and in its evil aspects.' He said, 'You have spoken the truth.' Then he (the man) said, 'Inform me about Ihsan.' He (the Prophet) answered, 'It is that you should serve Allah as though you could see Him, for though you cannot see Him yet He sees you.'
