Musnad of Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him)
Musnad Abi Ya'la 6028 — he heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say: An ant
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ الْمُسَيِّبِيُّ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنِي أَنَسٌ ، عَنْ يُونُسَ ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ ، أَنَّهُ قَالَ : أَخْبَرَنِي سَعِيدُ بْنُ الْمُسَيِّبِ ، وَأَبُو سَلَمَةَ ، أَنَّ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ ، سَمِعَ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، يَقُولُ : قَرَصَتْ نَمْلَةٌ نَبِيًّا مِنَ الْأَنْبِيَاءِ ، فَأَمَرَ بِقَرْيَةِ النَّمْلِ فَأُحْرِقَتْ ، فَأَوْحَى اللهُ إِلَيْهِ : أَفِي أَنْ قَرَصَتْكَ نَمْلَةٌ أَهْلَكْتَ أُمَّةً مِنَ الْأُمَمِ تُسَبِّحُ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) that he heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) say: "An ant bit one of the earlier prophets, so he ordered that the colony of ants be burned, and it was burned. Thereupon Allah, the Mighty and Majestic, revealed to him: 'Merely because an ant bit you, you destroyed an entire nation among the nations (of creatures) that glorified (Allah)?'"
