The Jurisprudence of the Hadith (Do Not Prefer Me Over Moses) and Is the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) the first to regain consciousness after the blowing of the Trumpet?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : In a hadith, the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Sahih Muslim 165b What is meant by "preference" here, O Shaykh, given that the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) is the master of the children of Adam?
The Shaykh : Yes, the preference that creates resentment and discord between the Muslim caller and the disbeliever who is called.
The questioner : The continuation of the hadith? I do not remember the rest of the hadith because there is a question about it.
The Shaykh : I do not remember, I do not remember. This hadith follows Moses .
The questioner : So I do not know if he regained consciousness before me or after me.
The Shaykh : Yes, if it is about Moses and not about Yunus, this is it.
The questioner : The point is that the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) is the first from whom the earth splits open in the hadith, and the point is that he does not know if Moses...
The Shaykh : ...was struck by the thunderclap.
The questioner : Yes, what is the point here?
The Shaykh : He does not know if he regained consciousness before the earth split open from the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him).
The questioner : That is, the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) is the first from whom the earth splits open.
The Shaykh : And yet, he finds Moses clinging to the Throne, so he does not know if he was struck by the thunderclap that struck him before, or what is the completion of the hadith.
The questioner : I do not know if he regained consciousness before me, or if he was struck by the thunderclap of the Mount, or if the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) is the first from whom the earth splits open.
The Shaykh : Yes, ... .
The questioner : Clinging to the legs of the Throne.
The Shaykh : Clinging to the Throne.
The questioner : So I do not know if he regained consciousness before me, or if he was struck by the thunderclap of the Mount.
The Shaykh : This is it. So I do not know if he regained consciousness before the Messenger, so that the splitting of his grave would be a special distinction for him regarding Moses, but regarding the rest of the people, it is a special distinction for him.
The questioner : So there is no contradiction.
The Shaykh : There is no contradiction; this is the general and the specific.
Abu al-'Aliya reported: Ibn Abbas, the son of your Prophet's uncle, told us that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) had observed: On the night of my night journey I passed by Moses b. 'Imran (peace be upon him), a man light brown in complexion, tall. well-built as if he was one of the men of the Shanu'a, and saw Jesus son of Mary as a medium-statured man with white and red complexion and crisp hair, and I was shown Malik the guardian of Fire, and Dajjal amongst the signs which were shown to me by Allah. He (the narrator) observed: Then do not doubt his (i. e. of the Holy Prophet) meeting with him (Moses). Qatada elucidated it thus: Verily the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ), met Moses (peace be upon him).
لا تفضلوني على موسى بن عمرانThe Shaykh : Yes, the preference that creates resentment and discord between the Muslim caller and the disbeliever who is called.
The questioner : The continuation of the hadith? I do not remember the rest of the hadith because there is a question about it.
The Shaykh : I do not remember, I do not remember.
Do not prefer one prophet over another.
