Sahih al-Bukhari 3340

Ishaq ibn Nasr narrated to me: Muhammad ibn ʿUbayd narrated to us: Abu Hayyan narrated to us, from Abu Zurʿa, from Abu Hurayra (may Allah be pleased with him), who said: We were with the Prophet ﷺ at a banquet. A foreleg was brought to him, which he liked, and he took a bite from it. He said: ‘I will be the leader of mankind on the Day of Resurrection. Do you know how Allah will gather the first and the last on one plain, where an observer will see them all and the caller will make them all hear, and the sun will draw near? Some people will say, “Do you not see the state you are in and what has befallen you? Will you not look for someone to intercede for you with your Lord?” Some will say, “Your father Adam.” They will go to him and say, “Adam, you are the father of humankind. Allah created you with His hand, breathed into you of His spirit, commanded the angels to prostrate to you, and settled you in Paradise. Will you not intercede for us with your Lord? Do you not see the state we are in and what has befallen us?” He will say, “My Lord has become angry with an anger like which He has never been angry before and will never be again. He forbade me from the tree, but I disobeyed Him. Myself, myself! Go to someone else; go to Noah.” They will go to Noah and say, “Noah, you were the first messenger to the people of the earth, and Allah named you a grateful servant. Do you not see the state we are in and what has befallen us? Will you not intercede for us with your Lord?” He will say, “My Lord is angry today with an anger like which He has never been angry before and will never be again. Myself, myself! Go to the Prophet ﷺ.” They will come to me, and I will prostrate beneath the Throne. Then it will be said: “Muhammad, raise your head; intercede, and your intercession will be accepted. Ask, and you will be given.”’ Muhammad ibn ʿUbayd said: ‘I do not remember the rest.’
