أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ، أنا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ، ثنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْوَهَّابِ الْفَرَّاءُ، ثنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْحَسَنِ الْمَخْزُومِيُّ، بِالْمَدِينَةِ،
قَالَ: حَدَّثَتْنِي أُمُّ سَلَمَةَ بِنْتُ الْعَلَاءِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ يَعْقُوبَ، عَنْ أَبِيهَا، عَنْ جَدِّهَا أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ قَالَ: " إِنَّ اللهَ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ يَقُولُ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ: أَمَرْتُكُمْ فَضَيَّعْتُمْ مَا عَهِدْتُ إِلَيْكُمْ فِيهِ، وَرَفَعْتُمْ أَنْسَابَكُمْ، فَالْيَوْمَ أَرْفَعُ نَسَبِي وَأَضَعُ أَنْسَابَكُمْ، أَيْنَ الْمُتَّقُونَ؟ أَيْنَ الْمُتَّقُونَ؟ إِنَّ أَكْرَمَكُمْ عِنْدَ اللهِ أَتْقَاكُمْ "

He said: Umm Salamah bint al-ʿAlāʾ b. ʿAbd al-Raḥmān b. Yaʿqūb narrated to me, from her father, from her grandfather Abū Hurayrah, that the Prophet ﷺ said: "Indeed God, Mighty and Majestic, will say on the Day of Resurrection: I commanded you, but you neglected what I entrusted to you, and you raised up your lineages. Today I raise up My lineage and bring low your lineages. Where are the God-fearing? Where are the God-fearing? {Indeed, the most noble of you in the sight of God is the most God-fearing of you}."
