Hadith 38656
٣٨٦٥٦ - حدثنا غندر (حدثنا) (١) شعبة عن عمرو بن مرة عن أبي حمزة عن زيد بن أرقم قال: أول من أسلم مع رسول اللَّه ﷺ علي بن أبي طالب (٢).
Hazrat Zaid bin Arqam (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the first person to believe in the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) was Hazrat Ali (may Allah be pleased with him). The narrator says that I mentioned this to Hazrat Nakha'i, so he said that the first person to believe was Hazrat Abu Bakr.
