(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا
عَلِيُّ بْنُ عَاصِمٍ ، عَنْ
يَزِيدَ بْنِ أَبِي زِيَادٍ ، عَنْ
مِقْسَمٍ وَمُجَاهِدٍ , عَنِ
ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ ، قَالَ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " أُعْطِيتُ خَمْسًا لَمْ يُعْطَهُنَّ أَحَدٌ قَبْلِي ، وَلَا أَقُولُهُ فَخْرًا : بُعِثْتُ إِلَى كُلِّ أَحْمَرَ وَأَسْوَدَ ، فَلَيْسَ مِنْ أَحْمَرَ وَلَا أَسْوَدَ يَدْخُلُ فِي أُمَّتِي إِلَّا كَانَ مِنْهُمْ ، وَجُعِلَتْ لِي الْأَرْضُ مَسْجِدًا " .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "I have been granted five such distinctions which were not given to anyone before me, and I do not say this out of pride. I have been sent to every red and black (i.e., all mankind), so whoever of red or black complexion joins my Ummah will be counted among them, and the entire earth has been made a mosque for me."
