Sunan Abi Dawud 4144 (Book 34, Hadith 125) #24434
Resembling the Companions of the Prophet

SUMMARY: Ibn Umar saw some travelers from Yemen and commented that they resembled the companions of the Prophet Muhammad.

Sa'id ibn Amr al-Qurashi quoting his father said: Ibn Umar (once) saw some fellow travellers of the Yemen. They had their saddles (on camels) of leather. He said: If anyone likes to see the fellow travellers most resembling to the Companions of the Messenger of Allah , he should see them.
حَدَّثَنَا هَنَّادُ بْنُ السَّرِيِّ، عَنْ وَكِيعٍ، عَنْ إِسْحَاقَ بْنِ سَعِيدِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو الْقُرَشِيِّ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ، أَنَّهُ رَأَى رُفْقَةً مِنْ أَهْلِ الْيَمَنِ رِحَالُهُمُ الأَدَمُ فَقَالَ مَنْ أَحَبَّ أَنْ يَنْظُرَ إِلَى أَشْبَهِ رُفْقَةٍ كَانُوا بِأَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ فَلْيَنْظُرْ إِلَى هَؤُلاَءِ
