جامع ترمذی · Hadith 3130

Narrated Abu Hurairah: that the Prophet (ﷺ) said: When I was taken on the Night of Isra I met Musa. He described him saying: He was a man who was and I think he said: A thin man, whose hair was as if he was a man from Shanu'ah. He said: I met 'Eisa he described him saying: Of average build, with a red face, as if he had just come out of the Dimas meaning the bath-house. And I saw Ibrahim he said: I am the one among his offspring that most resembles him and he said: I was brought two vessels, one of them containing milk and the other containing wine. I was told: 'Take whichever one of them you wish.' So I took the milk to drink from it. It was said to me: 'You were guided to the Fitrah' or: 'You chose the Fitrah, if you had take the wine your Ummah would have strayed.'
