2412. Narrated Abū Sa'īd Al-Khudrī رضي الله عنه: While Allāh's Messenger ﷺ was sitting, a Jew came and said, "O Abūl Qāsim! One of your companions has slapped me on my face." The Prophet ﷺ asked who that was. He replied that he was one of the Anṣār. The Prophet ﷺ sent for him, and on his arrival, he asked him whether he had beaten the Jew. He (replied in the affirmative and) said, "I heard him taking an oath in the market saying, 'By Him Who gave Mūsā (Moses) superiority over all the human beings.' I said, 'O wicked man! (Has Allāh given Mūsā superiority) even over Muḥammad ﷺ?'" I became furious and slapped him over his face." The Prophet ﷺ said, "Do not give a Prophet superiority over another, for on the Day of Resurrection all the people will fall unconscious; and I will be the first to emerge from the earth, and will see Mūsā standing and holding one of the pillars of the Throne. I will not know whether Mūsā has fallen unconscious or the first unconsciousness was sufficient for him."(1)

2412 - حَدَّثَنَا مُوسَى بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ، حَدَّثَنَا وُهَيْبٌ، حَدَّثَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ يَحْيَى، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الخُدْرِيِّ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ، قَالَ: بَيْنَمَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ جَالِسٌ جَاءَ يَهُودِيٌّ، فَقَالَ: يَا أَبَا القَاسِمِ ضَرَبَ وَجْهِي رَجُلٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِكَ، فَقَالَ: مَنْ؟ "، قَالَ: رَجُلٌ مِنَ الأَنْصَارِ، قَالَ: «ادْعُوهُ»، فَقَالَ: «أَضَرَبْتَهُ؟»، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُهُ بِالسُّوقِ يَحْلِفُ: وَالَّذِي اصْطَفَى مُوسَى عَلَى البَشَرِ، قُلْتُ: أَيْ خَبِيثُ، عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَأَخَذَتْنِي غَضْبَةٌ ضَرَبْتُ وَجْهَهُ، فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «لاَ تُخَيِّرُوا بَيْنَ الأَنْبِيَاءِ، فَإِنَّ النَّاسَ يَصْعَقُونَ يَوْمَ القِيَامَةِ، فَأَكُونُ أَوَّلَ مَنْ تَنْشَقُّ عَنْهُ الأَرْضُ، فَإِذَا أَنَا بِمُوسَى آخِذٌ بِقَائِمَةٍ مِنْ قَوَائِمِ العَرْشِ، فَلاَ أَدْرِي أَكَانَ فِيمَنْ صَعِقَ، أَمْ حُوسِبَ بِصَعْقَةِ الأُولَى»
