It was narrated that Talq Bin Ali said: We went out as a delegation to the Prophet ﷺ ; we gave him our oath of allegiance and prayed with him. We told him that in our land there was a church that belonged to us. We asked him to give us the leftovers of his purification Ablution water. So he called for water; performed Ablution and rinsed out his mouth; then he poured it into a vessel and said to us: Leave; and when you return to your land; demolish your church; and sprinkle this water on that place; and take it as a Masjid. We said: Our land is far away and it is very hot; the water is far away and it is very hot; the water will dry up. He said: Add more water to it; for that will only make it better. So we left and when we came to our land we demolished our church; then we sprinkled the water on that place and took it as a Masjid; and we called the Adhan in it. The monk was a man from Tay; and when he heard the Adhan; he said: It is a true call. Then he headed toward one of the hills and we never saw him again.
