Abu Hurayrah said: A Jewish man in the market of Madinah said, ‘No, by the One who chose Moses above all people!’ A man from the Ansar raised his hand and slapped him, saying, ‘You say this while the Prophet of Allah is among us?’ The Messenger of Allah said: ‘The Trumpet will be blown, and all who are in the heavens and the earth will fall unconscious, except those whom Allah wills. Then it will be blown again, and they will be standing, looking on’ (Qur’an 39:68). ‘I will be the first to raise my head, and I will see Moses holding on to one of the supports of the Throne. I will not know whether he raised his head before me or was among those whom Allah exempted. Whoever says, “I am better than Yunus ibn Matta,” has lied.’ Abu ‘Isa said: This is a hasan sahih hadith.
Notes and open questions — unreviewed
Kept the Prophet’s uncertainty about whether Moses raised his head first or was among those exempted, and the closing warning not to claim superiority over Yunus ibn Matta.
