Abu Hurairah, may Allah be pleased with him, reported:
One day Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) appeared before the public. Then a man came to him and asked: Prophet of Allah, what is Iman? Upon this he (the Holy Prophet) replied: That you affirm your faith in Allah, His angels, His Books, His meeting, His Messengers and that you affirm your faith in the Resurrection hereafter. He (again) asked: Messenger of Allah, what does Islam signify? He (the Holy Prophet) replied: Islam signifies that you worship Allah and do not associate anything with Him and you perform the prescribed Prayer and you pay the obligatory poor-due (Zakah) and you observe the Fast of Ramadan. He (the inquirer) again asked: Messenger of Allah, what does Al-Ihsan (Faithfulness) imply? He (the Holy Prophet) replied: That you worship Allah as if you are seeing Him, and in case you fail to see Him, then observe that He is seeing you. He (the inquirer) again asked: Messenger of Allah, when would there be the Hour of (Doom)? He (the Holy Prophet) replied: The one who is asked about it is no better informed than the inquirer. I, however, will narrate some of its signs (and these are): When the female-slave will give birth to her master, when the naked, barefooted would become the chiefs of the people; these are some of the signs of (Doom). (Moreover) when the shepherds of the black (camels) would exalt themselves in buildings, this is one of the signs of (Doom). (Doom) is one of the five (happenings wrapped in the unseen) which no one knows but Allah. Then he (the Messenger of Allah) (may peace be upon him) recited (the verse): http://hadith.al-islam.com/Bayan/MEDIA%5CB2.gif Verily, Allâh! With Him (Alone) is the knowledge of the Hour, He sends down the rain, and knows that which is in the wombs No person knows what he will earn tomorrow, and no person knows in what land he will die Verily, Allâh is All*Knower, All*Aware (of things) http://hadith.al-islam.com/Bayan/MEDIA%5CB1.gif He (the narrator, Abu Hurairah) said: Then the person turned back and went away. Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) said: Bring that man back to me. They (the Companions of the Holy Prophet present there) went to bring him back, but they did not find him. Upon this Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) remarked: He was Gabriel. He
came to teach people their religion.

‏كان رسول الله ‏ ‏صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏ ‏يوما بارزا للناس فأتاه رجل فقال يا رسول الله ما الإيمان قال ‏ ‏أن تؤمن بالله وملائكته وكتابه ولقائه ورسله وتؤمن بالبعث الآخر قال يا رسول الله ما الإسلام قال الإسلام أن تعبد الله ولا تشرك به شيئا وتقيم الصلاة المكتوبة وتؤدي الزكاة المفروضة وتصوم رمضان قال يا رسول الله ما الإحسان قال أن تعبد الله كأنك تراه فإنك إن لا تراه فإنه يراك قال يا رسول الله متى الساعة قال ما المسئول عنها بأعلم من السائل ولكن سأحدثك عن ‏ ‏أشراطها ‏ ‏إذا ولدت الأمة ‏ ‏ربها ‏ ‏فذاك من ‏ ‏أشراطها ‏ ‏وإذا كانت العراة الحفاة رءوس الناس فذاك من ‏ ‏أشراطها ‏ ‏وإذا ‏ ‏تطاول ‏ ‏رعاء ‏ ‏البهم ‏ ‏في البنيان فذاك من ‏ ‏أشراطها ‏ ‏في خمس لا يعلمهن إلا الله ثم تلا ‏ ‏صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏ ( إِنَّ اللَّهَ عِندَهُ عِلْمُ السَّاعَةِ وَيُنَزِّلُ الْغَيْثَ وَيَعْلَمُ مَا فِي الأَرْحَامِ وَمَا تَدْرِي نَفْسٌ مَّاذَا تَكْسِبُ غَدًا وَمَا تَدْرِي نَفْسٌ بِأَيِّ أَرْضٍ تَمُوتُ إِنَّ اللَّهَ عَلِيمٌ خَبِيرٌ ) ‏قال ثم أدبر الرجل فقال رسول الله ‏ ‏صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏ ‏ردوا علي الرجل فأخذوا ليردوه فلم يروا شيئا فقال رسول الله ‏ ‏صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏ ‏هذا ‏ ‏جبريل ‏ ‏جاء ليعلم الناس دينهم ‏
