Al-Mu'jam al-Awsat 1468 — the Messenger of Allah ﷺ asked: Who
حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ ، قَالَ : نَا عُبَيْدُ اللهِ بْنُ يُوسُفَ الْجُبَيْرِيُّ قَالَ : نَا عُمَرُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ الذِّرَاعُ قَالَ : نَا خَاقَانُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ أَهْتَمَ قَالَ : نَا حُمَيْدٌ الطَّوِيلُ . عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ -صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ- قَالَ : مَنْ سَيِّدُ الْعَرَبِ ؟ I " قَالُوا : أَنْتَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ . قَالَ : I " أَنَا سَيِّدُ وَلَدِ آدَمَ ، وَعَلِيٌّ سَيِّدُ الْعَرَبِ . I " لَمْ يَرْوِ هَذَا الْحَدِيثَ عَنْ حُمَيْدٍ إِلَّا خَاقَانُ ، وَلَا عَنْ خَاقَانَ إِلَّا عُمَرُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ ، تَفَرَّدَ بِهِ : عُبَيْدُ اللهِ الْجُبَيْرِيُّ I " .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) asked: "Who is the chief of the Arabs?" The Companions said: "You are, O Messenger of Allah." He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "I am the chief of the children of Adam, while Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) is the chief of the Arabs."
Imam al-Tabarani (may Allah have mercy on him) said: "No one narrated this hadith from Humayd (may Allah have mercy on him) except Khaqan (may Allah have mercy on him), and no one from Khaqan (may Allah have mercy on him) except Umar bin Abd al-Aziz (may Allah have mercy on him), while Ubaydullah al-Jubayri (may Allah have mercy on him) is alone in narrating it."
