Roozbah lived at Ammuriyah for a time.

Roozbah lived at Ammuriyah for a time. The priest of Ammuriyah was a good man. Before his death, he said to Roozbah: During this time, Allah will send a Prophet. The Prophet will bring the religion of Ibrahim al-Khalil. And he'll immigrate to a land with a lot of date palms. Roozbah asked him: What are his marks? Some of his marks are: He'll accept the gift but he won't accept the alms. And the mark of prophecy will be between his shoulders. The good priest died and Roozbah was by himself.

He thought of the immigration to the Arab Peninsula. One day, a caravan passed by him. The caravan wanted to come back to Hejaz. He gave them all his money to travel to Makkah. The traders took his money and deprived him of his freedom. They sold him to a Jew as a slave. Roozbah was sad because of that disloyalty, but he was patient. He sincerely began working on the Jewish man's farm. Days passed. One morning a man belonged to Bani Quraidha came to visit his cousin.

He saw Roozbah working very hard. The man said to his cousin: Please sell me that slave. Roozbah became happy because Bani Quraidha lived in Yathrib full of date-palms. In the meantime, the priest of Ammuriyah told him that the promised Prophet would appear in it. Roozbah was always counting the days. He looked forward to the Prophet's appearance. One day, while he was working on the farm, he heard his master saying to a friend of his: Muhammad's arrived at Quba.

And some people of Yathrib have received him. Roozbah rejoiced at the news, for it was time to get his freedom. He waited till evening. When it became dark, he took some dates and left his master's house secretly. The distance between Yathrib and Quba was about two miles. Roozbah covered them quickly. When he arrived at Quba, he went to our Master Muhammad [s] and said; I've heard you're a good man and that there are some strangers with you. Therefore, I've brought you these dates as alms.

Our Master Muhammad [s] distributed the dates to his companions, but he did not eat any. Roozbah said to himself: This is the first mark On the following day, he came again. He had some dates, too. He said to our Master Muhammad [s]: These are gifts. The Prophet [s] took the dates gratefully. He distributed them to his companions and ate some. Roozbah said to himself: And this is the second mark For this reason, Roozbah was certain that Muhammad was the promised Prophet.

He embraced him and believed in Islam.
