English translation

It is narrated from Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) that once someone asked the Holy Prophet (ﷺ), "O Messenger of Allah! Who is the best of people?" The Holy Prophet (ﷺ) replied, "I and my companions." He was asked, "Who after them?" He replied, "Those who will come after us." He was asked, "And after them?" So the Holy Prophet (ﷺ) left it at that.
