أَخْبَرَنَا مُجَاهِدُ بْنُ مُوسَى ، حَدَّثَنَا مَعْنُ بْنُ عِيسَى ، حَدَّثَنَا مُعَاوِيَةُ بْنُ صَالِحٍ ، عَنْ أَبِي فَرْوَةَ ، عَنْ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُمَا، أَنَّهُ سَأَلَ كَعْبَ الْأَحْبَارِ : كَيْفَ تَجِدُ نَعْتَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي التَّوْرَاةِ؟، فَقَالَ كَعْبٌ :" نَجِدْهُ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ يُولَدُ بِمَكَّةَ ، وَيُهَاجِرُ إِلَى طَابَةَ ، وَيَكُونُ مُلْكُهُ بِالشَّامِ ، وَلَيْسَ بِفَحَّاشٍ، وَلَا صَخَّابٍ فِي الْأَسْوَاقِ، وَلَا يُكَافِئُ بِالسَّيِّئَةِ السَّيِّئَةَ، وَلَكِنْ يَعْفُو وَيَغْفِرُ، أُمَّتُهُ الْحَمَّادُونَ، يَحْمَدُونَ اللَّهَ فِي كُلِّ سَرَّاءَ، وَضَرَّاءَ وَيُكَبِّرُونَ اللَّهَ عَلَى كُلِّ نَجْدٍ، يُوَضِّئُونَ أَطْرَافَهُمْ، وَيَأْتَزِرُونَ فِي أَوْسَاطِهِمْ، يُصَفُّونَ فِي صَلاتِهِمْ كَمَا يُصَفُّونَ فِي قِتَالِهِمْ، دَوِيُّهُمْ فِي مَسَاجِدِهِمْ كَدَوِيِّ النَّحْلِ، يُسْمَعُ مُنَادِيهِمْ فِي جَوِّ السَّمَاءِ "

Mujahid bin Musa told us, Maan bin Issa told us, Muawiyah bin Salih told us, on the authority of Abu Farwa, on the authority of Ibn Abbas, may God be pleased with him. On their authority, Ka’b asked Al-Ahbar: “How do you find the description of the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, in the Torah?” Ka’b said: “We find him Muhammad ibn Abdullah was born in Mecca, immigrated to Tabah, and his rule will be in the Levant. He is not immoral, does not make noise in the markets, and does not reward. With the bad and the bad, but He pardons and forgives. His nation is praising. They praise God in all good times and bad times and glorify God in every adversity. They illuminate their limbs, and gather themselves in their midst, and line up in their prayer as they line up in their fighting. Their sound in their mosques is like the sound of bees. Their calling will be heard in the air of the sky.”
