I asked Ibn Umar, or a man asked him, "We travel through this land and meet people who deny divine decree."Ibn Umar said, "When you meet those people, inform them that Abdullah bin Umar disowns them and they disown him." He said this three times.Then he began to narrate to us, saying, "While we were with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, a man came and said, 'Messenger of Allah, may I come closer?'The Prophet replied, 'Come closer.'So he moved a step closer. Then he said, 'Messenger of Allah, may I come closer?'The Prophet replied, 'Come closer.'So he moved another step closer. Then he said, 'Messenger of Allah, may I come closer?'The Prophet replied, 'Come closer.'So he moved closer until his knees almost touched the knees of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. Then he asked, 'Messenger of Allah, what is faith?'" And he mentioned the rest of its meaning.
