English translation

4671.[1] It was narrated from Abū Salamah bin 'Abdur-Raḥmān and 'Abdur-Raḥmān Al-A'rāj, that Abū Hurairah said: "A Jewish man said: 'By the One Who chose Mūsā.' A Muslim man raised his hand and slapped the Jew's face. The Jew went to the Prophet ﷺ and told him about that, and the Prophet ﷺ said: 'Do not favor me over Mūsā, for the people will swoon, and I will be the first one to wake up, and I will see Mūsā holding on to the side of the Throne, and I will not know whether he was one of those who swooned and awoke before me, or whether he was one of those who were exempt by Allāh, may He be exalted.”” (Sahih) Abū Dāwūd said: And the narration of Ibn Yaḥyā (one of the narrators) is more complete.

4671 - حَدَّثَنَا حَجَّاجُ بْنُ أَبِي يَعْقُوبَ، وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى بْنِ فَارِسٍ، قَالَا : حَدَّثَنَا يَعْقُوبُ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، وَعَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ الْأَعْرَجِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، قَالَ: قَالَ رَجُلٌ مِنَ الْيَهُودِ: وَالَّذِي اصْطَفَى مُوسَى فَرَفَعَ الْمُسْلِمُ يَدَهُ فَلَطَمَ وَجْهَ الْيَهُودِيِّ فَذَهَبَ الْيَهُودِيُّ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَأَخْبَرَهُ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «لَا تُخَيِّرُونِي عَلَى مُوسَى، فَإِنَّ النَّاسَ يُصْعَقُونَ، فَأَكُونُ أَوَّلَ مَنْ يُفِيقُ فَإِذَا مُوسَى بَاطِشٌ فِي جَانِبِ الْعَرْشِ، فَلَا أَدْرِي أَكَانَ مِمَّنْ صَعِقَ فَأَفَاقَ قَبْلِي، أَوْ كَانَ مِمَّنِ اسْتَثْنَى اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ» قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُدَ: وَحَدِيثُ ابْنِ يَحْيَى أَتَمُّ
