حَدَّثَنَا يَعْقُوبُ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي، عَنِ ابْنِ إِسْحَاقَ، حَدَّثَنِي يَحْيَى بْنُ أَبِي الْأَشْعَثِ، عَنْ إِسْمَاعِيلَ بْنِ إِيَاسِ بْنِ عَفِيفٍ الْكِنْدِيِّ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ جَدِّهِ، قَالَ: كُنْتُ امْرَأً تَاجِرًا، فَقَدِمْتُ الْحَجَّ، فَأَتَيْتُ الْعَبَّاسَ بْنَ عَبْدِ الْمُطَّلِبِ لِأَبْتَاعَ مِنْهُ بَعْضَ التِّجَارَةِ، وَكَانَ امْرَأً تَاجِرًا، فَوَاللهِ إِنِّي لَعِنْدَهُ بِمِنًى، إِذْ خَرَجَ رَجُلٌ مِنْ خِبَاءٍ قَرِيبٍ مِنْهُ، فَنَظَرَ إِلَى الشَّمْسِ فَلَمَّا رَآهَا مَالَتْ - يَعْنِي قَامَ يُصَلِّي - قَالَ: ثُمَّ خَرَجَتِ امْرَأَةٌ مِنْ ذَلِكَ الْخِبَاءِ الَّذِي خَرَجَ مِنْهُ ذَلِكَ الرَّجُلُ، فَقَامَتْ خَلْفَهُ تُصَلِّي، ثُمَّ خَرَجَ غُلامٌ حِينَ رَاهَقَ الْحُلُمَ مِنْ ذَلِكَ الْخِبَاءِ، فَقَامَ مَعَهُ يُصَلِّي. قَالَ: فَقُلْتُ لِلعَبَّاسِ: مَنْ (١) هَذَا يَا عَبَّاسُ؟ قَالَ: هَذَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْمُطَّلِبِ ابْنُ أَخِي، قَالَ: فَقُلْتُ: مَنْ هَذِهِ الْمَرْأَةُ؟ قَالَ: هَذِهِ امْرَأَتُهُ خَدِيجَةُ ابْنَةُ خُوَيْلِدٍ. قَالَ: قُلْتُ: مَنْ هَذَا الْفَتَى؟ قَالَ: هَذَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ أَبِي طَالِبٍ ابْنُ عَمِّهِ. قَالَ: فَقُلْتُ: فَمَا هَذَا الَّذِي يَصْنَعُ؟ قَالَ: " يُصَلِّي، وَهُوَ يَزْعُمُ أَنَّهُ نَبِيٌّ "، وَلَمْ يَتْبَعْهُ عَلَى أَمْرِهِ إِلا امْرَأَتُهُ، وَابْنُ عَمِّهِ هَذَا الْفَتَى، وَهُوَ يَزْعُمُ " أَنَّهُ سَيُفْتَحُ عَلَيْهِ كُنُوزُ كِسْرَى، وَقَيْصَرَ " قَالَ: فَكَانَ عَفِيفٌ وَهُوَ ابْنُ عَمِّ الْأَشْعَثِ بْنِ قَيْسٍ يَقُولُ: وَأَسْلَمَ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ، فَحَسُنَ إِسْلامُهُ لَوْ كَانَ اللهُ رَزَقَنِي الْإِسْلامَ يَوْمَئِذٍ، فَأَكُونُ ثَالِثًا مَعَ عَلِيِّ بْنِ أَبِي طَالِبٍ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ (٢)، ،

It was narrated that alMuttalib bin Abu Wada"ah said: al"Abbas said:
The Prophet (ﷺ) heard of some of what the people were saying, so he ascended the minbar and said: "Who am I?" They said: You are the Messenger of Allah. He said: "I am Muhammad bin "Abdullah bin ‘Abdul-Muttalib. Allah created creation and He made me among the best of His creation. Then He made them into two groups, and He put me in the best group. And He created tribes, and He put me in the best tribe. And He made them families, and He put me in the best family. So I am the best of you in family and the best of you as an individual.”
