وَحَدَّثَنَا أَبُو كُرَيْبٍ، مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْعَلاَءِ حَدَّثَنَا مُعَاوِيَةُ بْنُ هِشَامٍ، عَنْ سُفْيَانَ، عَنْ مُخْتَارِ بْنِ فُلْفُلٍ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ، قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم " أَنَا أَكْثَرُ الأَنْبِيَاءِ تَبَعًا يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ وَأَنَا أَوَّلُ مَنْ يَقْرَعُ بَابَ الْجَنَّةِ " .
Translation
Abu Kurayb—Muhammad ibn al-‘Ala’—narrated to us: Mu‘awiya ibn Hisham narrated to us, from Sufyan, from al-Mukhtar ibn Fulful, from Anas ibn Malik, who said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said, “I will have the greatest following among the prophets on the Day of Resurrection, and I will be the first to knock at the gate of Paradise.”
