Al-Mu'jam al-Awsat 4357 — he heard the Prophet ﷺ, five days before
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ الْحَسَنِ الْحَرَّانِيُّ قَالَ : نَا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ الرَّقِّيُّ قَالَ : نَا عُبَيْدُ اللهِ بْنُ عَمْرٍو ، عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ أَبِي أُنَيْسَةَ ، عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ مُرَّةَ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ الْحَارِثِ قَالَ : نَا جُنْدُبٌ ، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَبْلَ مَوْتِهِ بِخَمْسٍ يَقُولُ : قَدْ كَانَ لِي فِيكُمْ إِخْوَةٌ وَأَصْدِقَاءُ ، وَإِنِّي أَبْرَأُ إِلَى اللهِ أَنْ يَكُونَ كَانَ لِي مِنْكُمْ خَلِيلٌ ، وَلَوْ كُنْتُ مُتَّخِذًا خَلِيلًا مِنْ أُمَّتِي لَاتَّخَذْتُ أَبَا بَكْرٍ خَلِيلًا ، وَإِنَّ رَبِّي قَدِ اتَّخَذَنِي خَلِيلًا ، كَمَا اتَّخَذَ إِبْرَاهِيمَ خَلِيلًا ، أَلَا إِنَّ مَنْ قَبْلَكُمْ كَانُوا يَتَّخِذُونَ قُبُورَ أَنْبِيَائِهِمْ مَسَاجِدَ ، وَإِنِّي أَنْهَاكُمْ عَنْ ذَلِكَ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Jundub (may Allah be pleased with him) that he heard the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), five days before his (peace and blessings be upon him) death, say: "Indeed I have had brothers and friends among you, and I declare myself free before Allah of having any khalil (the most intimate, heartfelt friend) among you. If I were to take anyone from my Ummah as my khalil, I would take Sayyiduna Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) as my khalil. And indeed my Lord has taken me as His khalil, just as He took Sayyiduna Ibrahim (peace be upon him) as His khalil. Beware! Those who came before you used to take the graves of their prophets as places of prostration. Beware! I forbid you from doing that."
