حَدَّثَنَا عَفَّانُ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنِ الْعَلَاءِ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ
فُضِّلْتُ عَلَى الْأَنْبِيَاءِ بِسِتٍّ، قِيلَ مَا هُنَّ: أَيْ رَسُولَ اللهِ قَالَ: أُعْطِيتُ جَوَامِعَ الْكَلِمِ، وَنُصِرْتُ بِالرُّعْبِ، وَأُحِلَّتْ لِيَ الْغَنَائِمُ، وَجُعِلَتْ لِيَ الْأَرْضُ طَهُورًا وَمَسْجِدًا، وَأُرْسِلْتُ إِلَى الْخَلْقِ كَافَّةً، وَخُتِمَ بِيَ النَّبِيُّونَ، مَثَلِي وَمَثَلُ الْأَنْبِيَاءِ كَمَثَلِ رَجُلٍ بَنَى قَصْرًا فَأَكْمَلَهُ وَأَحْسَنَ بِنَاءَهُ إِلَّا مَوْضِعَ لَبِنَةٍ فَنَظَرَ النَّاسُ إِلَى الْقَصْرِ، فَقَالُوا: مَا أَحْسَنَ بُنْيَانَ هَذَا الْقَصْرِ، لَوْ تَمَّتْ هَذِهِ اللَّبِنَةُ، أَلَا فَكُنْتُ أَنَا اللَّبِنَةَ أَلَا فَكُنْتُ أَنَا اللَّبِنَةَ.

✧ I was favored over the prophets with six things. It was asked: What are they, O Messenger of God? He said: I was given the most concise speech, I was aided with terror, the spoils of war were made lawful for me, the earth was made a means of purification and a mosque for me, I was sent to all creation, and the prophets were sealed with me. My likeness and that of the prophets is like a man who built a palace and completed it and perfected its construction except for the place of one brick. The people looked at the palace and said: 'How excellent is the construction of this palace, if only this brick were complete.' Indeed, I am that brick; indeed, I am that brick.
