Original Arabic

حَدَّثَنَا عَفَّانُ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، عَنِ الْعَلَاءِ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " فُضِّلْتُ عَلَى الْأَنْبِيَاءِ بِسِتٍّ " قِيلَ: مَا هُنَّ أَيْ رَسُولَ اللهِ؟ قَالَ: " أُعْطِيتُ جَوَامِعَ، ، الْكَلِمِ، وَنُصِرْتُ بِالرُّعْبِ، وَأُحِلَّتْ لِي الْغَنَائِمُ، وَجُعِلَتْ لِي الْأَرْضُ طَهُورًا وَمَسْجِدًا، وَأُرْسِلْتُ إِلَى الْخَلْقِ كَافَّةً، وَخُتِمَ بِيَ النَّبِيُّونَ "، " مَثَلِي وَمَثَلُ الْأَنْبِيَاءِ كَمَثَلِ رَجُلٍ بَنَى قَصْرًا، فَأَكْمَلَ بِنَاءَهُ وَأَحْسَنَ بِنْاءَهُ (١) إِلَّا مَوْضِعَ لَبِنَةٍ، فَنَظَرَ النَّاسُ إِلَى الْقَصْرِ، فَقَالُوا: مَا أَحْسَنَ بُنْيَانَ هَذَا الْقَصْرِ، لَوْ تَمَّتْ هَذِهِ اللَّبِنَةُ، أَلَا وكُنْتُ أَنَا اللَّبِنَةَ، أَلَا وكُنْتُ أَنَا اللَّبِنَةَ " (٢)،

Translation

English translation

It is narrated from the previous chain that the Noble Prophet (peace be upon him) said: I have been given superiority over other prophets in six things. Someone asked, O Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him), what are those things? He said: I have been given concise and comprehensive speech, I have been helped through awe, spoils of war have been made lawful for me, the earth has been made pure and a mosque for me, I have been sent to all of creation, and the line of prophets has been ended with me. (It is narrated from Abu Hurairah, may Allah be pleased with him, that the Noble Prophet, peace be upon him, said:) The example of me and the prophets before me is like that of a man who built a very beautiful and complete building, except that he left a space for one brick in one of its corners. People would walk around it, marvel at it, and say: We have never seen a more splendid building than this, except for the place of that brick. So I am that brick.
