When Rasulullah (sallallahu ‘alaihi wasallam) came, a cloud was giving him shade. As he approached his people, he noticed that they had already taken whatever shade was available under a tree. Since there was no shade available, Rasulullah (sallallahu ‘alaihi wasallam) sat on one side. The moment he sat, the shade of the tree moved in his direction. The monk remarked, “Look at the shade of this tree and how it moved towards him!”
The monk then stood and began to take oaths before the caravan saying, “Do not take him to Rome. If the Romans see him, they will recognize him by his qualities and signs and will kill him.”
