2213. Al-Mustawrid bin Shaddād Al-Fihri reported that the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: "I was sent in advance of the Hour, so that I precede it like this precedes this." (Indicating) with his index and middle fingers. (Da'if) [Abū 'Eisā said:] This Hadīth is Gharib as a narration of Al-Mustawrid bin Shaddād, we do not know of it except from this route.
٢٢١٣ - حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عُمَرَ بْنِ هَيَّاجٍ الْأَسَدِيُّ الْكُوفِيُّ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ الْأَرْحَبِيُّ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا عُبَيْدَةُ بْنُ الْأَسْوَدِ، عَنْ مُجَالِدٍ ، عَنْ قَيْسِ بْنِ أَبِي حَازِمٍ ، عَنِ الْمُسْتَوْرِدِ بْنِ شَدَّادٍ الْفِهْرِيِّ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، قَالَ: «بُعِثْتُ فِي نَفَسِ» السَّاعَةِ فَسَبَقْتُهَا كَمَا سَبَقَتْ هَذِهِ هَذِهِ لِأُصْبُعَيْهِ السَّبَّابَةِ وَالْوُسْطَى. هَذَا حَدِيثٌ غَرِيبٌ، مِنْ حَدِيثِ الْمُسْتَوْرِدِ بْنِ شَدَّادٍ، لَا نَعْرِفُهُ إِلَّا مِنْ هَذَا الْوَجْهِ.

The phrase 'Fi naṣ as-sā'ah' (literally, synchronizing in time with each other) used in the Hadīth is intended to highlight the idea that there shall be no prophet and no new Sharī'ah between myself and the Hour, and there is as much proximity and conjoining between myself and the Hour as there is between the index and middle fingers of the hand. In other words, 'I am the last Prophet and my Ummah is the last Ummah'.
