Musnad of Sa'd bin Abi Waqqas
Musnad Abi Ya'la 703 — the Messenger of Allah ﷺ had the doors
حَدَّثَنَا مُوسَى ، حَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ بْنِ جَعْفَرٍ الطَّحَّانُ ، حَدَّثَنَا غَسَّانُ بْنُ بِشْرٍ الْكَاهِلِيُّ ، عَنْ مُسْلِمٍ ، عَنْ خَيْثَمَةَ ، عَنْ سَعْدٍ ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - سَدَّ أَبْوَابَ النَّاسِ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ وَفَتَحَ بَابَ عَلِيٍّ ، فَقَالَ النَّاسُ فِي ذَلِكَ ، فَقَالَ : مَا أَنَا فَتَحْتُهُ ، وَلَكِنَّ اللهَ فَتَحَهُ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Sa'd (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) had the doors of the people that opened into the Mosque (of the Prophet) closed, and left the door of Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) open. The people talked about this, whereupon he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "It is not I who opened this door; rather, Allah Almighty opened it."
