حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عِمْرَانَ، ثنا أَبُو حَفْصٍ عَمْرُو بْنُ عَلِيٍّ، ثنا أَبُو عَاصِمٍ الْعَبَّادَانِيُّ، ثنا عَلِيُّ بْنُ زَيْدٍ، عَنْ يُوسُفَ بْنِ مِهْرَانَ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، قَالَ: كُنَّا فِي حَلْقَةٍ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ نَتَذَاكَرُ فَضَائِلَ الْأَنْبِيَاءِ , أَيُّهُمْ أَفْضَلُ؟ فَذَكَرْنَا نُوحًا وَطُولَ عِبَادَتِهِ رَبَّهُ، وَذَكَرْنَا إِبْرَاهِيمَ خَلِيلَ الرَّحْمَنِ، وَذَكَرْنَا مُوسَى كَلِيمَ اللهِ، وَذَكَرْنَا عِيسَى ابْنَ مَرْيَمَ، وَذَكَرْنَا رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَبَيْنَا نَحْنُ كَذَلِكَ إِذْ خَرَجَ عَلَيْنَا رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ , فَقَالَ: «مَا تَذْكُرُونَ بَيْنَكُمْ؟» قُلْنَا: يَا رَسُولَ اللهُ , تَذَاكَرْنَا فَضَائِلَ الْأَنْبِيَاءِ , أَيُّهُمْ أَفْضَلُ؟ ذَكَرْنَا نُوحًا وَطُولَ عِبَادَتِهِ، وَذَكَرْنَا إِبْرَاهِيمَ خَلِيلَ الرَّحْمَنِ، وَذَكَرْنَا مُوسَى كَلِيمَ الرَّحْمَنِ، وَذَكَرْنَا عِيسَى ابْنَ مَرْيَمَ، وَذَكَرْنَاكَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، قَالَ: فَمَنْ فَضَّلْتُمْ؟، قُلْنَا فَضَلَّنَاكَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، بَعَثَكَ اللهُ إِلَى النَّاسِ كَافَّةً، وَغَفَرَ لَكَ مَا تَقَدَّمَ مِنْ ذَنْبِكَ وَمَا تَأَخَّرَ، وَأَنْتَ خَاتَمُ الْأَنْبِيَاءِ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " أَمَا إِنَّهُ لَا يَنْبَغِي لِأَحَدٍ أَنْ يَقُولَ: أَنَا خَيْرٌ مِنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ زَكَرِيَّا " قُلْنَا: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، وَمِنْ أَيْنَ ذَاكَ؟، قَالَ: " أَمَا سَمِعْتُمُ اللهَ كَيْفَ وَصَفَهُ فِي الْقُرْآنِ فَقَالَ: {يَا يَحْيَى خُذِ الْكِتَابَ بِقُوَّةٍ، وَآتَيْنَاهُ الْحُكْمَ صَبِيًّا} [مريم: ١٢] ، فَقَرَأَ حَتَّى بَلَغَ {سَيِّدًا وَحَصُورًا وَنَبِيًّا مِنَ الصَّالِحِينَ} [آل عمران: ٣٩] لَمْ يَعْمَلْ سَيِّئَةً قَطُّ، وَلَمْ يَهُمَّ بِهَا "
Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) says: We were sitting in a circle in the mosque discussing the virtues of the prophets (peace be upon them), which of them was the most excellent. We mentioned Nuh (peace be upon him) and his long worship, we mentioned Ibrahim, the Friend of the Most Merciful, we mentioned Musa, the one to whom Allah spoke, we mentioned Isa bin Maryam (peace be upon them both), and we mentioned the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). Meanwhile the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) came out to us and said: "What are you talking about among yourselves?" We said: O Messenger of Allah, we were discussing the virtues of the prophets (peace be upon them), which of them was the most excellent. We mentioned Nuh (peace be upon him) and his long worship, we mentioned Ibrahim, the Friend of the Most Merciful, we mentioned Musa, the one to whom the Most Merciful spoke, we mentioned Isa bin Maryam (peace be upon them both), and, O Messenger of Allah, we mentioned you as well. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "So whom did you consider the most excellent?" We said: We considered you the most excellent, O Messenger of Allah. Allah sent you to all people, forgave you your past and future sins, and you are the Seal of the Prophets. At this the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Listen, it is not proper for anyone to say: 'I am better than Yahya bin Zakariyya (peace be upon him).'" We said: O Messenger of Allah, why is that? He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Have you not heard how Allah has described him in the Qur'an? He said: 'O Yahya, hold fast to the Scripture with strength, and We gave him wisdom while still a child' [Surah Maryam: 12]." Then he (peace and blessings be upon him) recited until he reached this saying: "A leader, chaste, and a prophet from among the righteous" [Surah Al Imran: 39]. "He never committed a sin, nor did he intend one."
