Sahih al-Bukhari 4689 (Book 65, Hadith 417)
“And He (Allah) has sent him (Muhammad) also to other (Muslims)…..’ (62.3) was recited by the
Prophet, I said, “Who are they, O Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ)?” The Prophet (ﷺ) did not reply till I repeated my
question thrice. At that time, Salman Al-Farisi was with us. So Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) put his hand on
Salman, saying, “If Faith were at (the place of) Ath-Thuraiya (pleiades, the highest star), even then
(some men or man from these people (i.e. Salman’s folk) would attain it.”
