Again the young man came and went round the Ka'aba. He saw the foreign man at his place.
The young man said to Jundub:
Isn't it time to know your house?
"No!" Jundub said.
The young man said to Jundub:
Come with me to the house.
Jundub stood up and went with him to the house, silently. The young man said:
I can see you're thinking, what's your need?
Jundub said carefully:
I'll tell you if you keep it a secret.
I'll keep it a secret if Allah pleases.
Jundub was relieved when he heard Allah's Name. So, he said slowly:
I've heard about the appearance of a Prophet in Makkah and I want to see him.
The young man said with a smile:
Allah has guided you. I'll show you his house. Follow me at a distance. When I see a suspicious person, I'll stop as if to repair my slippers. Then don't stop just go on your way.
The young man went on walking to our Master Muhammad's [s] house. At the same time Jundub was following him.
