"Allāh and His Messenger have spoken the truth. Today I will meet the beloved ones, Muḥammad and his party. Indeed, the Messenger of Allāh (ṣallá Allāhu ʿalayhi wa-sallam) said: ..."

Today we meet our beloved Muḥammad (ṣallá Allāhu ʿalayhi wa-sallam), (and in another narration: we meet the beloved ones, Muḥammad and his party), he entrusted me with ..." Then he mentioned the ḥadīth
