Abu Huraira reported: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, came to a graveyard and he said, “Peace be upon you, the abode of the believer and we, Allah willing, are about to join you. I love to see my brothers.” They said, “Are we not your brothers, O Messenger of Allah?” He said, “You are my companions, and our brothers are those who have not yet come into the world.” They said, “O Messenger of Allah, how will you recognize those people from your nation who have not yet been born?” He said, “Suppose a man had horses with white blazes on their foreheads and legs, and they were among horses which were all black; tell me, would he not recognize his own horses?” They said, “Of course.” He said, “They will come with white faces, arms, and legs due to the traces of ablution, and I will arrive at the fountain before them. Some people will be driven away from my fountain just as a stray camel is driven away. I will call out: Come! Co
me! But then it will be said to me: These people changed themselves after you, and I will say: Be off! Be off!”
[Sahih Muslim, Book 2, Number 482]
