When they had evened themselves out...

When they had evened themselves out, Jibraeel -as grabbed my -saww upper arm, and placed me -saww forward, so I -saww led them -as , and I -saww do not pride. ثم أتاني الخازن بثلاثة أوان: إناء فيه لبن، و إناء فيه ماء، و إناء فيه خمر، فسمعت قائلا يقول: إن أخذ الماء غرق و غرقت أمته، و إن أخذ الخمر غوى و غوت أمته، و إن أخذ اللبن هدي و هديت أمته.

فأخذت اللبن فشربت منه، فقال جبرئيل: هديت و هديت أمتك Then the treasurer came to me with three containers – a container in which was milk, and a container in which was water, and a container in which was wine. So I -saww heard a speaker saying, ‘If he -saww takes the water, he -saww would drown and his -saww community would drown with him -saww . And if he -saww takes the wine, he -saww would go astray and his -saww community would go astray.

And if he -saww takes the milk, he -saww would be Guided, and his -saww community would be Guided’. So I -saww took the milk and drank from it. So Jibraeel -as said: ‘You -saww are Guided, and your -saww community is Guided!’ ثم قال لي: ماذا رأيت في مسيرك؟ قلت: ناداني مناد عن يميني. فقال لي: أ و أجبته؟ فقلت: لا، و لم ألتفت إليه.

فقال: ذلك داعي اليهود، لو أجبته لتهودت أمتك من بعدك Then he -as said to me -saww : ‘What did you -saww see in your -saww journey?’ I -saww said: ‘A Caller called out from my -saww right. So he -as said to me -saww : ‘Did you -saww answer him?’ So I -saww said: ‘No, and I -azwj did not turn towards him either’. So he -as said: ‘That was the Jewish caller. Had you -saww answered him, your -saww community would have become Jews from after you -saww ’. ثم قال: ماذا رأيت؟ قلت: ناداني مناد عن يساري.

فقال: أو أجبته؟ فقلت: لا، و لم ألتفت إليه. فقال: ذلك داعي النصارى، لو أجبته لتنصرت أمتك من بعدك Then he -as said: ‘What did you -saww see?’ I -saww said: ‘A Caller called out to me -saww from my -saww left’. So he -as said: ‘Did you -saww answer him?’ I -saww said: ‘No, and I -saww did not turn towards him either’. So he -as said: ‘That was the Christian caller. Had you -saww answered him, your -saww community would have become Christians from after you -saww ’.

ثم قال: ماذا استقبلك؟ فقلت: لقيت امرأة كاشفة عن ذراعيها، عليها من كل زينة الدنيا، فقالت: يا محمد، انظرني حتى أكلمك. فقال لي: أ فكلمتها؟ فقلت: لم أكلمها، و لم ألتفت إليها. فقال: تلك الدنيا، و لو كلمتها لاختارت أمتك الدنيا على الآخرة Then he -as said: ‘What did you -saww face?’ I -saww said: ‘I -saww met a woman who had uncovered her arms, and upon her were every adornments of the world.
