حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ الْأَشْعَثِ بْنِ سَعِيدٍ السَّمَّانُ ابْنُ أَبِي الرَّبِيعِ، أَخْبَرَنَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ يَعْنِي ابْنَ أَبِي الْحُسَامِ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَقِيلٍ، عَنِ الطُّفَيْلِ بْنِ أُبَيِّ بْنِ كَعْبٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: "" مَثَلِي فِي النَّبِيِّينَ كَمَثَلِ رَجُلٍ ابْتَنَى دَارًا فَأَحْسَنَهَا وَأَجْمَلَهَا وَأَكْلَمَهَا، وَتَرَكَ مِنْهَا مَوْضِعَ لَبِنَةٍ لَمْ يَضَعْهَا، فَجَعَلَ النَّاسُ يَطُوفُونَ بِالْبُنْيَانِ، (٢) وَيَعْجَبُونَ، وَيَقُولُونَ: لَوْ تَمَّ مَوْضِعُ هَذِهِ اللَّبِنَةِ " " (٣)، ،

Translation

English translation

It is narrated from Ubayy bin Ka'b (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (ﷺ) said: Among the noble Prophets (peace be upon them), my example is like that of a person who built a beautiful and complete house and left the place of one brick empty. People would walk around that building in amazement and say, "If only the place of this brick were also completed (then this building would be complete)." Among the noble Prophets (peace be upon them), I am like that brick.
