6917. Narrated Abū Sa'īd Al-Khudrī رضي الله عنه: A Jew, whose face had been slapped (by someone), came to the Prophet ﷺ and said, "O Muḥammad (ﷺ)! A man from your Anṣārī companions slapped me." The Prophet ﷺ said, "Call him". They called him and the Prophet ﷺ asked him, "Why did you slap his face?" He said, "O Allāh's Messenger! While I was passing by the Jews, I heard him saying, 'By Him Who chose Mūsā (Moses) above all the human beings.' I said (protestingly), 'Even above Muḥammad (ﷺ)?' So I became furious and slapped him." The Prophet ﷺ said, "Do not give me preference to other Prophets, for the people will become unconscious on the Day of Resurrection and I will be the first to regain conscious, and behold, I will find Mūsā holding one of the pillars of the Throne (of Allāh). Then I will not know whether he has become conscious before me or he has been exempted because of his unconsciousness at the mountain (during his worldly life) which he received."
