Musnad Ahmad 8072 — Musnad of Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with)

Husayn ibn Muhammad narrated to us, Jarir narrated to us, from Muhammad, from Abu Huraira, from the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, who said: "Only three spoke in the cradle: ‘Isa ibn Maryam, peace be upon him, a boy who was in the time of Jurayj, and another boy." Then he mentioned the hadith. He said: "As for Jurayj, he was a devout man among the Children of Israel, and he had a mother. One day, while he was praying, his mother longed for him and said: 'O Jurayj!' He said: 'O Lord, prayer is better or my mother whom I should go to?' Then he continued praying. She called him, and he said the same. Then she called him, and he said the same, and he continued praying. This became hard on his mother, and she said: 'O Allah, show Jurayj to the immoral women.' Then he ascended his hermitage, and there was a prostitute from the Children of Israel." Then he mentioned something similar.
