(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا حَسَنٌ ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ ، عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ زَيْدٍ ، عَنْ أَبِي نَضْرَةَ ، قَالَ : خَطَبَنَا ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ عَلَى هَذَا الْمِنْبَرِ ، مِنْبَرِ الْبَصْرَةِ ، قَالَ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " إِنَّهُ لَمْ يَكُنْ نَبِيٌّ إِلَّا لَهُ دَعْوَةٌ تَنَجَّزَهَا فِي الدُّنْيَا ، وَإِنِّي اخْتَبَأْتُ دَعْوَتِي شَفَاعَةً لِأُمَّتِي ، وَأَنَا سَيِّدُ وَلَدِ آدَمَ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ ، وَلَا فَخْرَ ، وَأَنَا أَوَّلُ مَنْ تَنْشَقُ عَنْهُ الْأَرْضُ ، وَلَا فَخْرَ ، وَبِيَدِي لِوَاءُ الْحَمْدِ ، وَلَا فَخْرَ ، آدَمُ فَمَنْ دُونَهُ تَحْتَ لِوَائِي , قَالَ : وَيَطُولُ يَوْمُ الْقِيَامَةِ عَلَى النَّاسِ ، حَتَّى يَقُولَ بَعْضُهُمْ لِبَعْضٍ : انْطَلِقُوا بِنَا إِلَى آدَمَ أَبِي الْبَشَرِ ، فَيَشْفَعَ لَنَا إِلَى رَبِّهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ فَلْيَقْضِ بَيْنَنَا , فَيَأْتُونَ آدَمَ عَلَيْهِ السَّلَام ، فَيَقُولُونَ : يَا آدَمُ , أَنْتَ الَّذِي خَلَقَكَ اللَّهُ بِيَدِهِ ، وَأَسْكَنَكَ جَنَّتَهُ ، وَأَسْجَدَ لَكَ مَلَائِكَتَهُ ، فَاشْفَعْ لَنَا إِلَى رَبِّكَ ، فَلْيَقْضِ بَيْنَنَا , فَيَقُولُ : إِنِّي لَسْتُ هُنَاكُمْ ، إِنِّي قَدْ أُخْرِجْتُ مِنَ الْجَنَّةِ بِخَطِيئَتِي ، وَإِنَّهُ لَا يُهِمُّنِي الْيَوْمَ إِلَّا نَفْسِي ، وَلَكِنْ ائْتُوا نُوحًا رَأْسَ النَّبِيِّينَ , فَيَأْتُونَ نُوحًا ، فَيَقُولُونَ : يَا نُوحُ ، اشْفَعْ لَنَا إِلَى رَبِّكَ فَلْيَقْضِ بَيْنَنَا , فَيَقُولُ : إِنِّي لَسْتُ هُنَاكُمْ ، إِنِّي قَدْ دَعَوْتُ دَعْوَةً غَرَّقَتْ أَهْلَ الْأَرْضِ ، وَإِنَّهُ لَا يُهِمُّنِي الْيَوْمَ إِلَّا نَفْسِي ، وَلَكِنْ ائْتُوا إِبْرَاهِيمَ خَلِيلَ اللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ السَّلَام , قَالَ : فَيَأْتُونَ إِبْرَاهِيمَ ، فَيَقُولُونَ : يَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ ، اشْفَعْ لَنَا إِلَى رَبِّكَ ، فَلْيَقْضِ بَيْنَنَا , فَيَقُولُ : إِنِّي لَسْتُ هُنَاكُمْ ، إِنِّي قَدْ كَذَبْتُ فِي الْإِسْلَامِ ثَلَاثَ كِذْبَاتٍ ، وَإِنَّهُ لَا يُهِمُّنِي الْيَوْمَ إِلَّا نَفْسِي , فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : إِنْ حَاوَلَ بِهِنَّ إِلَّا عَنْ دِينِ اللَّهِ ، قَوْلُهُ : إِنِّي سَقِيمٌ سورة الصافات آية 89 , وَقَوْلُهُ : بَلْ فَعَلَهُ كَبِيرُهُمْ هَذَا سورة الأنبياء آية 63 , وَقَوْلُهُ لِامْرَأَتِهِ : إِنَّهَا أُخْتِي ، وَلَكِنْ ائْتُوا مُوسَى عَلَيْهِ السَّلَام ، الَّذِي اصْطَفَاهُ اللَّهُ بِرِسَالَتِهِ وَكَلَامِهِ , فَيَأْتُونَ مُوسَى , فَيَقُولُونَ : يَا مُوسَى ، أَنْتَ الَّذِي اصْطَفَاكَ اللَّهُ بِرِسَالَتِهِ وَكَلَّمَكَ ، فَاشْفَعْ لَنَا إِلَى رَبِّكَ ، فَلْيَقْضِ بَيْنَنَا , فَيَقُولُ : إِنِّي لَسْتُ هُنَاكُمْ ، إِنِّي قَتَلْتُ نَفْسًا بِغَيْرِ نَفْسٍ ، وَإِنَّهُ لَا يُهِمُّنِي الْيَوْمَ إِلَّا نَفْسِي ، وَلَكِنْ ائْتُوا عِيسَى ، رُوحَ اللَّهِ وَكَلِمَتَهُ ، فَيَأْتُونَ عِيسَى ، فَيَقُولُونَ : يَا عِيسَى ، أَنْتَ رُوحُ اللَّهِ وَكَلِمَتُهُ ، فَاشْفَعْ لَنَا إِلَى رَبِّكَ فَلْيَقْضِ بَيْنَنَا , فَيَقُولُ : إِنِّي لَسْتُ هُنَاكُمْ ، إني قَدْ اتُّخِذْتُ إِلَهًا مِنْ دُونِ اللَّهِ ، وَإِنَّهُ لَا يُهِمُّنِي الْيَوْمَ إِلَّا نَفْسِي , ثُمَّ قَالَ : أَرَأَيْتُمْ لَوْ كَانَ مَتَاعٌ فِي وِعَاءٍ قَدْ خُتِمَ عَلَيْهِ ، أَكَانَ يُقْدَرُ عَلَى مَا فِي الْوِعَاءِ حَتَّى يُفَضَّ الْخَاتَمُ ؟ فَيَقُولُونَ : لَا , فَيَقُولُ : إِنَّ مُحَمَّدًا صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، خَاتَمَ النَّبِيِّينَ ، قَدْ حَضَرَ الْيَوْمَ ، وَقَدْ غُفِرَ لَهُ مَا تَقَدَّمَ مِنْ ذَنْبِهِ وَمَا تَأَخَّرَ " , قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " فَيَأْتُونِي ، فَيَقُولُونَ : يَا مُحَمَّدُ ، اشْفَعْ لَنَا إِلَى رَبِّكَ ، فَلْيَقْضِ بَيْنَنَا , فَأَقُولُ : نَعَمْ أَنَا لَهَا ، حَتَّى يَأْذَنَ اللَّهُ لِمَنْ يَشَاءُ وَيَرْضَى ، فَإِذَا أَرَادَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ أَنْ يَصْدَعَ بَيْنَ خَلْقِهِ نَادَى مُنَادٍ : أَيْنَ أَحْمَدُ وَأُمَّتُهُ ؟ فَنَحْنُ الْآخِرُونَ الْأَوَّلُونَ ، فَنَحْنُ آخِرُ الْأُمَمِ ، وَأَوَّلُ مَنْ يُحَاسَبُ ، فَتُفْرَجُ لَنَا الْأُمَمُ عَنْ طَرِيقِنَا ، فَنَمْضِي غُرًّا مُحَجَّلِينَ مِنْ أَثَرِ الطُّهُورِ ، وَتَقُولُ الْأُمَمُ : كَادَتْ هَذِهِ الْأُمَّةُ أَنْ تَكُونَ أَنْبِيَاءَ كُلُّهَا , قَالَ : ثُمَّ آتِي بَابَ الْجَنَّةِ ، فَآخُذُ بِحَلْقَةِ بَابِ الْجَنَّةِ ، فَأَقْرَعُ الْبَابَ ، فَيُقَالُ : مَنْ أَنْتَ ؟ فَأَقُولُ مُحَمَّدٌ ، فَيُفْتَحُ لِي ، فَأَرَى رَبِّي عَزَّ وَجَلَّ ، وَهُوَ عَلَى كُرْسِيِّهِ أَوْ سَرِيرِهِ فَأَخِرُّ لَهُ سَاجِدًا ، وَأَحْمَدُهُ بِمَحَامِدَ لَمْ يَحْمَدْهُ بِهَا أَحَدٌ كَانَ قَبْلِي ، وَلَا يَحْمَدُهُ بِهَا أَحَدٌ بَعْدِي ، فَيُقَالُ لي : ارْفَعْ رَأْسَكَ ، وَقُلْ تُسْمَعْ ، وَسَلْ تُعْطَهْ ، وَاشْفَعْ تُشَفَّعْ , قَالَ : فَأَرْفَعُ رَأْسِي ، فَأَقُولُ : أَيْ رَبِّ ، أُمَّتِي ، أُمَّتِي , فَيُقَالُ لِي : أَخْرِجْ مِنَ النَّارِ مَنْ كَانَ فِي قَلْبِهِ مِثْقَالُ كَذَا وَكَذَا , فَأُخْرِجُهُمْ ، ثُمَّ أَعُودُ فَأَخِرُّ سَاجِدًا ، وَأَحْمَدُهُ بِمَحَامِدَ لَمْ يَحْمَدْهُ بِهَا أَحَدٌ كَانَ قَبْلِي ، وَلَا يَحْمَدُهُ بِهَا أَحَدٌ بَعْدِي ، فَيُقَالُ لِي : ارْفَعْ رَأْسَكَ ، وَقُلْ يُسْمَعْ لَكَ ، وَسَلْ تُعْطَهْ ، وَاشْفَعْ تُشَفَّعْ , فَأَرْفَعُ رَأْسِي ، فَأَقُولُ : أَيْ رَبِّ ، أُمَّتِي ، أُمَّتِي , فَيُقَالُ : أَخْرِجْ مَنْ النَّارِ مَنْ كَانَ فِي قَلْبِهِ مِثْقَالُ كَذَا وَكَذَا , فَأُخْرِجُهُمْ " , قَالَ : وَقَالَ فِي الثَّالِثَةِ مِثْلَ هَذَا أَيْضًا .
Abu Nadrah (may Allah have mercy on him) says that once, while delivering a sermon from the pulpit of the central mosque of Basra, Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) said that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: “Every prophet had at least one supplication that was certainly fulfilled for him in this world, but I have reserved my supplication for intercession for my Ummah on the Day of Resurrection. I will be the leader of all the children of Adam on the Day of Resurrection, and I do not boast about it. I will be the first person for whom the earth will be split open, and I do not boast about it. The banner of praise (Liwa’ al-Hamd) will be in my hand, and I do not boast about it. Adam (peace be upon him) and everyone else will be under my banner, and I do not boast about it.
The Day of Resurrection will seem very long to the people. They will say to one another, ‘Come, let us go to Adam (peace be upon him), he is the father of mankind, so that he may intercede for us before our Lord so that He may begin our reckoning.’ So all the people will come to Adam (peace be upon him) and say, ‘O Adam! Are you not the one whom Allah created with His own blessed hand, settled in His Paradise, commanded His angels to prostrate to you? Intercede for us before your Lord so that He may begin our reckoning.’ He will say, ‘I am not fit for this task. Because of one mistake, I was expelled from Paradise. Today, I am only concerned about myself. However, go to Noah (peace be upon him), who is the root of all the prophets.’
So all creation and all mankind will come to Noah (peace be upon him) and say, ‘O Noah! Intercede for us before our Lord so that He may begin our reckoning.’ He will say, ‘I am not fit for this task. I made a supplication because of which the people of the earth were drowned. Today, I am only concerned about myself. However, go to Khalilullah, Ibrahim (peace be upon him).’
So all the people will come to Ibrahim (peace be upon him) and say, ‘O Ibrahim! Intercede for us before our Lord so that He may begin our reckoning.’ He will say, ‘I am not fit for this task. During the time of Islam, I spoke three ambiguous words, by Allah, I only intended the religion (by them): (one was when he said he was sick, the second was when he said that their big idol had broken the others, and the third was when he called his wife his sister before the king). Today, I am only concerned about myself. However, go to Musa (peace be upon him), whom Allah chose for His message and to speak to Him.’
Now all the people will come to Musa (peace be upon him) and say, ‘O Musa! Are you not the one whom Allah chose for His message and spoke to directly? Intercede for us before your Lord so that He may begin our reckoning.’ He will say, ‘I am not fit for this task. I killed a person without any soul being taken in exchange. Therefore, today I am only concerned about myself. However, go to Isa (peace be upon him), who is the Spirit of Allah and His Word.’
So all the people will come to Isa (peace be upon him) and say, ‘Intercede for us before your Lord so that He may begin our reckoning.’ He will say, ‘I am not fit for this task. People took me as a deity besides Allah. Therefore, today I am only concerned about myself. But tell me, if something is in a vessel that is sealed, can it be obtained without breaking the seal?’ The people will say, ‘No.’ Upon this, Isa (peace be upon him) will say, ‘Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) is the seal of all the prophets. Today, he is present here, and all his past and future sins have been forgiven (so go to him).’”
The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: “Then they will all come to me and say, ‘O Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him)! Intercede for us before your Lord so that He may begin our reckoning.’ The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) will say: ‘Yes! I am fit for this task, until Allah permits whomever He wills and is pleased with.’ When Allah intends to decide among His creation, a caller will announce, ‘Where is Ahmad (peace and blessings be upon him) and his Ummah?’ We came last but will be first. We are the last Ummah, but our reckoning will be the first, and all the other nations will make way for us, and we will proceed with radiant foreheads due to the effects of ablution. The other nations, seeing this, will say, ‘All the people of this Ummah seem to be prophets.’
Anyway, I will reach the gate of Paradise and take hold of its ring and knock. From inside, it will be asked, ‘Who are you?’ I will say, ‘I am Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him).’ So the door will be opened. I will present myself before my Lord, Who will be seated on His Throne. I will fall in prostration before Him and praise Him in such a way that no one before me has praised Him like that, nor will anyone after me. Then it will be said to me, ‘O Muhammad! Raise your head, ask and you will be given, speak and you will be heard, intercede and your intercession will be accepted.’ I will raise my head and say, ‘My Lord! My Ummah, my Ummah.’ It will be said, ‘Whoever has faith in his heart equal to a certain weight (the narrator could not remember the exact amount), take him out of Hell.’ After doing so, I will return again and prostrate before Allah and praise Him as before, and after the same question and answer, it will be said to me, ‘Whoever has faith in his heart equal to a lesser weight than before, take him out of Hell.’ The third time, it will be the same.”
