    وَعَنْ أَبِي ذَرٍّ قَالَ: قُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَيُّ الْأَنْبِيَاءِ كَانَ أَوَّلَ؟ قَالَ: «آدَمُ» . قُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ وَنَبِيٌّ كَانَ؟ قَالَ: «نَعَمْ نَبِيٌّ مُكَلَّمٌ» . قُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ كم المُرْسَلُونَ؟ قَالَ: «ثَلَاثمِائَة وبضع عشر جماً غفيراً» وَفِي رِوَايَة عَنْ أَبِي أُمَامَةَ قَالَ أَبُو ذَرٍّ: قَلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ كَمْ وَفَاءُ عِدَّةِ الْأَنْبِيَاءِ؟ قَالَ: «مِائَةُ أَلْفٍ وَأَرْبَعَةٌ وَعِشْرُونَ أَلْفًا الرُّسُلُ مِنْ ذَلِكَ ثَلَاثُمِائَةٍ وَخَمْسَةَ عَشَرَ جَمًّا غَفِيرًا»

    Abu Dharr told that he asked God’s messenger who was the first of the prophets and he replied that it was Adam. He asked if he was really a prophet and he replied, “Yes, he was a prophet to whom a message was given.” He asked God’s messenger how many messengers there had been, and he replied, “There have been three hundred and between ten and twenty all told.” In a version on the authority of Abu Umama Abu Dharr told that he had asked God’s messenger the number which made up the full complement of the prophets, and he replied, “A hundred and twenty-four thousand among whom were three hundred and fifteen messengers all told.”

    وَعَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: ” لَيْسَ الْخَبَرُ كَالْمُعَايَنَةِ إِنَّ اللَّهَ تَعَالَى أَخْبَرَ مُوسَى بِمَا صَنَعَ قَوْمُهُ فِي الْعِجْلِ فَلَمْ يُلْقِ الْأَلْوَاحَ فَلَمَّا عَايَنَ مَا صَنَعُوا أَلْقَى الْأَلْوَاحَ فَانْكَسَرَتْ. رَوَى الْأَحَادِيث الثَّلَاثَة أَحْمد

    Ibn ‘Abbas reported God’s messenger as saying, “Being given information is not like seeing. God most high gave Moses information about what his people had done regarding the calf and he did not throw down the tablets, but when he saw what they did he threw down the tablets and they were broken.” Ahmad transmitted the three traditions.

    وَعَنْهُ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «أَنَا أَوْلَى النَّاسِ بِعِيسَى بن مَرْيَمَ فِي الْأُولَى وَالْآخِرَةِ الْأَنْبِيَاءُ أُخْوَةٌ مِنْ عَلَّاتٍ وَأُمَّهَاتُهُمْ شَتَّى وَدِينُهُمْ وَاحِدٌ وَلَيْسَ بَيْنَنَا نَبِي» . مُتَّفق عَلَيْهِ

    He reported God’s messenger as saying, “I am the nearest of kin to Jesus, son of Mary in this world and the next. The prophets are brothers, sons of one father by co-wives. Their mothers are different, but their religion is one[*]. There has been no prophet between us.” *This saying is explained as meaning that all prophets have the same religion, which is figuratively called their lather, but they differ in their law and in a number of regulations, these being figuratively called their mothers. Cf. Mirqat , 5:346. (Bukhari and Muslim.)

    وَعَنْهُ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «كُلُّ بَنِي آدَمَ يَطْعَنُ الشَّيْطَانُ فِي جَنْبَيْهِ بِإِصْبَعَيْهِ حِينَ يُوَلَدُ غَيْرَ عِيسَى بْنِ مَرْيَمَ ذَهَبَ يَطْعَنُ فَطَعَنَ فِي الْحِجَابِ» . مُتَّفَقٌ عَلَيْهِ

    He reported God’s messenger as saying, “All the descendants of Adam have their sides pierced by the devil with two of his fingers at birth, except the son of Mary. He went to pierce him, but pierced the membrane covering him.” (Bukhari and Muslim.)

    وَعَنْ أَبِي مُوسَى عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: «كَمُلَ مِنَ الرِّجَالِ كَثِيرٌ وَلَمْ يَكْمُلْ مِنَ النساءِ إِلا مريمُ بنتُ عِمْرَانَ وَآسِيَةُ امْرَأَةُ فِرْعَوْنَ وَفَضْلُ عَائِشَةَ عَلَى النِّسَاءِ كَفَضْلِ الثَّرِيدِ عَلَى سَائِرِ الطَّعَامِ» . مُتَّفَقٌ عَلَيْهِ

    Abu Musa reported the Prophet as saying, “Many men have been perfect, but among women only Mary the daughter of `Imran and Asiya the wife of Pharaoh were perfect; and `A’isha’s superiority over women is like the superiority of tharid over other kinds of food.” (Bukhari and Muslim.)

    عَن أبي رزين قَالَ: قلت: يَا رَسُول الله أَيْن رَبُّنَا قَبْلَ أَنْ يَخْلُقَ خَلْقَهُ؟ قَالَ: «كَانَ فِي عَمَاءٍ مَا تَحْتَهُ هَوَاءٌ وَمَا فَوْقَهُ هَوَاءٌ وَخَلَقَ عَرْشَهُ عَلَى الْمَاءِ» . رَوَاهُ التِّرْمِذِيُّ وَقَالَ: قَالَ يَزِيدُ بْنُ هَارُونَ: الْعَمَاءُ: أَيْ لَيْسَ مَعَه شَيْء

    Abu Razin told that he asked God’s messenger, “Where was our Lord before He created the creation?” to which he replied, “He was in obscurity ( ‘ama’ ) with no air below Him and no air above Him, and He created His Throne on the water.” Tirmidhi transmitted it. Yazid b. Harun[1] said `ama’ means that there was nothing with Him[2]. Al-Wasiti (d.206), a highly estimated authority who appears in the course of the isnad . The word ‘ama’ presents difficulty. It commonly means `clouds’, but this is felt to be inappropriate here unless figuratively in the sense of God being veiled. It is suggested that this means it is a matter which the mind cannot grasp. Cf. Mirqat , 5:349.

    وَعَن العبَّاس بن عبد الْمطلب زعم أَنَّهُ كَانَ جَالِسًا فِي الْبَطْحَاءِ فِي عِصَابَةٍ وَرَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ جَالِسٌ فِيهِمْ فَمَرَّتْ سَحَابَةٌ فَنَظَرُوا إِلَيْهَا فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «مَا تُسَمُّونَ هَذِهِ؟» . قَالُوا: السَّحَابَ. قَالَ: «وَالْمُزْنَ؟» قَالُوا: وَالْمُزْنَ. قَالَ: «وَالْعَنَانَ؟» قَالُوا: وَالْعَنَانَ. قَالَ: «هَلْ تَدْرُونَ مَا بعد مابين السَّمَاءِ وَالْأَرْضِ؟ » قَالُوا: لَا نَدْرِي. قَالَ: «إِنَّ بُعْدَ مَا بَيْنَهُمَا إِمَّا وَاحِدَةٌ وَإِمَّا اثْنَتَانِ أَوْ ثَلَاثٌ وَسَبْعُونَ سَنَةً وَالسَّمَاءُ الَّتِي فَوْقَهَا كَذَلِكَ» حَتَّى عَدَّ سَبْعَ سَمَاوَاتٍ. ثُمَّ «فَوْقَ السَّمَاء السَّابِعَة بَحر بَين أَعْلَاهُ وأسفله مَا بَيْنَ سَمَاءٍ إِلَى سَمَاءٍ ثُمَّ فَوْقَ ذَلِكَ ثَمَانِيَة أَو عَال بَيْنَ أَظْلَافِهِنَّ وَوُرُكِهِنَّ مِثْلُ مَا بَيْنَ سَمَاءٍ إِلَى سَمَاءٍ ثُمَّ عَلَى ظُهُورِهِنَّ الْعَرْشُ بَيْنَ أَسْفَلِهِ وَأَعْلَاهُ مَا بَيْنَ سَمَاءٍ إِلَى سَمَاءٍ ثُمَّ اللَّهُ فَوْقَ ذَلِكَ» . رَوَاهُ التِّرْمِذِيُّ وَأَبُو دَاوُد

    Al- `Abbas b. `Abd al-Muttalib asserted that he was sitting in al Batha'[*] with a company among whom God’s messenger was sitting when a cloud passed. They looked at it and God’s messenger asked, “What do you call this?” and received the reply “Clouds ( sahab ).” He said, “And rain-clouds ( muzn ),” to which they agreed. He said, “And clouds ( `aman ),” to which they agreed. He asked, “Do you know the distance between heaven and earth?” and when they replied that they did not, he said, “The distance between them is seventy-one, seventy-two, or seventy-three years, the heaven which is above it is at a similar distance (going on till he counted seven heavens). Above the seventh heaven there is a sea the distance between whose surface and bottom is like that between one heaven and the next. Above that there are eight mountain goats the distance between whose hoofs and haunches is like that between one heaven and the next. On their backs is the Throne the extent of which from top to bottom is like the distance between one heaven and the next. Then God is above that.” *A stony valley at Mecca. Tirmidhi and Abu Dawud transmitted it.

    وَعَنْ جُبَيْرِ بْنِ مُطْعِمٍ قَالَ: أَتَى رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَعْرَابِيٌّ فَقَالَ: جَهِدَتِ الْأَنْفُسُ وَجَاعَ الْعِيَالُ وَنُهِكَتِ الْأَمْوَالُ وَهَلَكَتِ الْأَنْعَام فَاسْتَسْقِ اللَّهَ لَنَا فَإِنَّا نَسْتَشْفِعُ بِكَ عَلَى الله نستشفع بِاللَّهِ عَلَيْكَ. فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «سُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ سُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ» . فَمَا زَالَ يسبّح حَتَّى عُرف ذَلِك فِي وُجُوه أَصْحَابه ثُمَّ قَالَ: «وَيْحَكَ إِنَّهُ لَا يُسْتَشْفَعُ بِاللَّهِ عَلَى أَحَدٍ شَأْنُ اللَّهِ أَعْظَمُ مِنْ ذَلِكَ وَيْحَكَ أَتَدْرِي مَا اللَّهُ؟ إِنَّ عَرْشَهُ عَلَى سَمَاوَاتِهِ لَهَكَذَا» وَقَالَ بِأَصَابِعِهِ مَثْلَ الْقُبَّةِ عَلَيْهِ «وإِنه ليئط أطيط الرحل بالراكب» رَوَاهُ أَبُو دَاوُد

    Jubair b. Mut’im told that a nomadic Arab came to God’s messenger and said, “People are suffering distress, the children are hungry, the crops are withered and the animals are perishing, so ask God to grant us rain, for we seek you as our intercessor with God and God as our intercessor with you.” Thereupon the Prophet said, “Glory be to God, glory be to God,” and he continued declaring God’s glory till the effect of that was apparent in the faces of his companions. He then said, “Woe to you! God is not to be sought as intercessor with anyone. God’s state is greater than that. Woe to you! Do you know how great God is? His Throne is above the heavens thus (indicating with his fingers something like a dome over him), and it groans on account of Him as a saddle does because of the rider.” Abu Dawud transmitted it.

    Abu Huraira reported the Prophet as saying, “The reason why al Khidr was so called was because he sat on some white waste land and it sprouted green ( khadra’ ) behind him.” Bukhari transmitted it.
