حَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ عِيسَى أَنْبَأَنَا مَالِكٌ عَنِ الْعَلَاءِ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ أَنَّ رَ
سُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ خَرَجَ إِلَى الْمَقَابِرِ فَقَالَ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكُمْ دَارَ قَوْمٍ مُؤْمِنِينَ وَإِنَّا إِنْ شَاءَ اللَّهُ لَكُمْ لَاحِقُونَ

English Translation
Ishaq ibn 'Isa narrated to us, Malik informed us, from al-'Ala', from his father, from Abu Hurayrah (رضي الله عنه) that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ went out to the cemetery and said: 'Peace be upon you, O abode of believing people. We will, if Allah wills, join you. I wish we had seen our brothers.' They said: 'Are we not your brothers, O Messenger of Allah?' He said: 'You are my companions. Our brothers are those who have not yet come.' They said: 'How will you recognize those of your Ummah who have not yet come?' He said: 'If a man had horses with white blazes and white feet among entirely dark horses, would he not recognize his horses?' They said: 'Yes.' He said: 'They will come on the Day of Resurrection with white blazes and white feet from ablution, and I will precede them to the Hawd (Basin).'
