أَخْبَرَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ أَنبأَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ أَبِي حَكِيمٍ حَدَّثَنِي الْحَكَمُ بْنُ أَبَانَ عَنْ عِكْرِمَةَ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ
إِنَّ اللَّهَ فَضَّلَ مُحَمَّدًا ﷺ عَلَى الْأَنْبِيَاءِ عليهم السلام وَعَلَى أَهْلِ السَّمَاءِ فَقَالُوا يَا ابْنَ عَبَّاسٍ بِمَ فَضَّلَهُ عَلَى أَهْلِ السَّمَاءِ؟ قَالَ إِنَّ اللَّهَ قَالَ لِأَهْلِ السَّمَاءِ {وَمَنْ يَقُلْ مِنْهُمْ إِنِّي إِلَهٌ مِنْ دُونِهِ فَذَلِكَ نَجْزِيهِ جَهَنَّمَ كَذَلِكَ نَجْزِي الظَّالِمِينَ} [الأنبياء 29] الْآيَةَ وَقَالَ اللَّهُ تَعَالَى لِمُحَمَّدٍ ﷺ {إِنَّا فَتَحْنَا لَكَ فَتْحًا مُبِينًا لِيَغْفِرَ لَكَ اللَّهُ مَا تَقَدَّمَ مِنْ ذَنْبِكَ وَمَا تَأَخَّرَ} [الفتح 2] قَالُوا فَمَا فَضْلُهُ عَلَى الْأَنْبِيَاءِ عليهم السلام؟ قَالَ قَالَ اللَّهُ ﷻ {وَمَا أَرْسَلْنَا مِنْ رَسُولٍ إِلَّا بِلِسَانِ قَوْمِهِ لِيُبَيِّنَ لَهُمْ} [إبراهيم 4] الْآيَةَ وَقَالَ اللَّهُ ﷻ لِمُحَمَّدٍ ﷺ {وَمَا أَرْسَلْنَاكَ إِلَّا كَافَّةً لِلنَّاسِ} [سبأ 28] فَأَرْسَلَهُ إِلَى الْجِنِّ وَالْإِنْسِ

✧ Indeed, Allah favored Muhammad ﷺ over the prophets (peace be upon them) and over the inhabitants of the heavens. They said, “O Ibn Abbas, by what did He favor him over the inhabitants of the heavens?” He said, “Allah said to the inhabitants of the heavens: {And whoever of them says, ‘I am a god besides Him,’ that one We will recompense with Hell. Thus We recompense the wrongdoers} [al-Anbiya 29] to the end of the verse, while Allah, Exalted is He, said to Muhammad ﷺ: {Indeed, We have granted you a clear victory, that Allah may forgive you what preceded of your sin and what will follow} [al-Fath 2].” They said, “Then what is his virtue over the prophets (peace be upon them)?” He said, “Allah, Exalted is He, said: {And We did not send any messenger except with the language of his people, so that he might make clear to them} [Ibrahim 4] to the end of the verse, while Allah, Exalted is He, said to Muhammad ﷺ: {And We have not sent you except comprehensively to all people} [Saba 28]. So He sent him to the jinn and mankind.”
