Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدَةُ حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَمْرٍو عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أُوتِيتُ جَوَامِعَ الْكَلِمِ وَجُعِلَتْ لِي الْأَرْضُ مَسْجِدًا وَطَهُورًا.
English Translation
The Prophet (peace be upon him) said: 'Allah created Adam in His image, sixty cubits tall. Then He said: Go and greet those — a group of angels sitting — and listen to what they greet you with, for it will be your greeting and the greeting of your offspring. He went and said: As-Salamu alaykum. They said: As-Salamu alayka wa rahmatullahi. So they added wa rahmatullahi. Everyone who enters Paradise will be in the form of Adam, sixty cubits tall. People have been decreasing in stature since then until now.'
