The Negus King of Abyssinia believed in the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH).
He said to the priests of his Kingdom:- "O' you priests and
monks, what they say (the Muslims) about the Son of Mary is not more than what you say, you messengers of Muhammad are welcomed here and so is he.
I bear witness that he (Muhammad) is the Messenger of God, and that he is the one Jesus gave glad tidings of his coming. And if I wasn't occupied with this kingdom I would go to the
Prophet and personally carry his shoes". (Source:
