2411. Narrated Abū Hurairah رضي الله عنه: Two persons, a Muslim and a Jew, quarrelled. The Muslim said, "By Him Who gave Muḥammad (ﷺ) superiority over all the people!" The Jew said, "By Him Who gave Mūsā [Moses] (عليه السلام) superiority over all the people!" At that the Muslim raised his hand and slapped the Jew on the face. The Jew went to the Prophet ﷺ and informed him of what had happened between him and the Muslim. The Prophet ﷺ sent for the Muslim and asked him about it. The Muslim informed him of the event. The Prophet ﷺ said, "Do not give me superiority over Mūsā, for on the Day of Resurrection all the people will fall unconscious and I will be one of them, but I will be the first to regain consciousness, and will see Mūsā standing and holding the side of the Throne (of Allāh). I will not know whether (Mūsā) has also fallen unconscious and got up before me, or Allāh has exempted him from that stroke."

2411 - حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ قَزَعَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ، وَعَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ الأَعْرَجِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ، قَالَ: اسْتَبَّ رَجُلاَنِ رَجُلٌ مِنَ المُسْلِمِينَ وَرَجُلٌ مِنَ اليَهُودِ، قَالَ المُسْلِمُ: وَالَّذِي اصْطَفَى مُحَمَّدًا عَلَى العَالَمِينَ، فَقَالَ اليَهُودِيُّ: وَالَّذِي اصْطَفَى مُوسَى عَلَى العَالَمِينَ، فَرَفَعَ المُسْلِمُ يَدَهُ عِنْدَ ذَلِكَ، فَلَطَمَ وَجْهَ اليَهُودِيِّ، فَذَهَبَ اليَهُودِيُّ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَأَخْبَرَهُ بِمَا كَانَ مِنْ أَمْرِهِ ، وَأَمْرِ المُسْلِمِ، فَدَعَا النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ المُسْلِمَ، فَسَأَلَهُ عَنْ ذَلِكَ، فَأَخْبَرَهُ، فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «لاَ تُخَيِّرُونِي عَلَى مُوسَى، فَإِنَّ النَّاسَ يَصْعَقُونَ يَوْمَ القِيَامَةِ، فَأَصْعَقُ مَعَهُمْ، فَأَكُونُ أَوَّلَ مَنْ يُفِيقُ، فَإِذَا مُوسَى بَاطِشٌ جَانِبَ العَرْشِ، فَلاَ أَدْرِي أَكَانَ فِيمَنْ صَعِقَ، فَأَفَاقَ قَبْلِي أَوْ كَانَ مِمَّنِ اسْتَثْنَى اللَّهُ»
