He-as said: ‘O Muhammad-saww! Proceed (to lead)’. Rasool-Allah-saww said to him: ‘You-as go ahead, O Jibraeel-as! ’
He-as said to him-saww: ‘We (Angels) cannot advance upon the Adamites (Human beings) sin we had been Commanded with doing Sajdah to Adam-as’’. [246]

He-asws said: ‘He should enter into Salat of the people and leave the two Cycles (of his own). When the day rises, he can fulfil these two (Cycles)’’. [249]
