English translation

1083. It was narrated that Abu Hurairah said: "The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: 'Allāh led those who came before us astray from Friday. Saturday was for the Jews and Sunday was for the Christians. And they will lag behind us until the Day of Resurrection. We are the last of the people of this world but we will be the first to be judged among all of creation.'" (Sahih)

Arabic text

1083 - حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ الْمُنْذِرِ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ فُضَيْلٍ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مَالِكٍ الْأَشْجَعِيُّ، عَنْ رِبْعِيِّ بْنِ حِرَاشٍ، عَنْ حُذَيْفَةَ، وَعَنْ أَبِي حَازِمٍ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «أَضَلَّ اللَّهُ عَنِ الْجُمُعَةِ مَنْ كَانَ قَبْلَنَا، كَانَ لِلْيَهُودِ يَوْمُ السَّبْتِ، وَالْأَحَدُ لِلنَّصَارَى، فَهُمْ لَنَا تَبَعٌ إِلَى يَوْمِ الْقِيَامَةِ، نَحْنُ الْآخِرُونَ مِنْ أَهْلِ الدُّنْيَا، وَالْأَوَّلُونَ الْمَقْضِيُّ لَهُمْ قَبْلَ الْخَلَائِقِ»

Commentary

a. Friday is the best of all the seven days of the week. b. The community of the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ is superior in excellence to all other peoples and communities. One of the aspects of its superiority is the fact that it will be the first to present its account to Allāh, the Glorified and Exalted, on the Day of Reckoning. Thus, the just and righteous of this community will be admitted to the Gardens of Paradise before all others.
