Buhayra living in his cell.

Buhayra living in his cell. But it was the first time for the caravan to see this monk. As much as they traveled through this land but they hadn't met or talked with this monk. The monk came out of his cell and saw the caravan. There was something that drew his attention. There was a cloud moving to shadow one of those in the caravan. When the caravan stopped, the monk noticed another thing.

He noticed that the tree, which they stopped near, bent it branches to shadow the same one, who had been shadowed by the cloud. He was so astonished but when he remembered who was there between the lines of the holy Book he had, his astonishment left his prudent mind. He came down from his cell, ordered his companions to serve food and invited the caravan saying: "O people of Quraysh, I have served some food for you.

I like that all of you; the little boys and the old men, the servants and the masters to come." One from among the caravan said: "O Buhayra, by Allah you have something in your mind today. We passed by you times and times but you did never do such a thing for us. What is the matter today?" They accepted his invitation and came with him except one, who was the very point of the monk's attention. It was Muhammad (s), who stayed under the tree with the baggage.

The monk's eyes roved hear and there but they didn't see what they looked for. O Buhayra, all of them were here except a little boy. He stayed with the baggage. But the questions of Buhayra wouldn't stop unless that little boy came. Some one went to bring the boy. The deep examining looks of the monk began to check some things of the boy's body to find the description he had read in the holy Book about this great boy.

When they finished eating their food, Buhayra began to ask Muhammad (s) some questions to be sure about what he had in his mind. The Monk turned to Abu Talib asking: What relation is between you and this boy?" Abu Talib said: "He is my son." The monk said: "He is not your son. His father must not be alive." Abu Talib said: "He died while his mother was pregnant with him." The monk said: "You are true. Go back with your nephew to your country and be careful of the Jews.

By Allah, if they see him and know what I know, they will do their best to do away with him. Your nephew will be of great importance.
