The Excellent Qualities of him who is pre-eminent among the Messengers - Section 1
وَعَنْ وَاثِلَةَ بْنِ الْأَسْقَعِ قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ: «إِنَّ اللَّهَ اصْطَفَى كِنَانَةَ مِنْ وَلَدِ إِسْمَاعِيلَ وَاصْطَفَى قُرَيْشًا مِنْ كِنَانَةَ وَاصْطَفَى مِنْ قُرَيْشٍ بَنَى هَاشِمٍ وَاصْطَفَانِي مِنْ بَنِي هَاشِمٍ». رَوَاهُ مُسْلِمٌ وَفِي رِوَايَةٍ لِلتِّرْمِذِيِّ: «إِنَّ اللَّهَ اصْطَفَى مِنْ ولد إِبْرَاهِيم إِسْمَاعِيل وَاصْطفى من ولد إِسْمَاعِيل بني كنَانَة»
Translation
Wathila b. al-Asqa' told that he heard God's messenger say, "God chose Kinana from the descendants of Ishmael, He chose Quraish from Kinana, from Quraish He chose the B. Hashim, and He chose me from the B. Hashim.'' Muslim transmitted it. In a version by Tirmidhi he said, "God chose Ishmael from among the children of Abraham, and He chose the B. Kinana from among the descendants of Ishmael.' Tirmidhi
