اُردوEn
حدثني محمد بن مُظفَّر، حدَّثنا أبو الجَهْم، حدَّثنا إبراهيم بن يعقوب، قال: سمعت أبا مُسهر يقول: أُبيُّ بن كعب سمّاه رسولُ الله ﷺ سيِّدَ الأنصار، فلم يمُت [حتى] قالوا: سيدُ المسلمين (3).
Abu Mushir narrates that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) gave Sayyiduna Ubayy bin Ka'b (may Allah be pleased with him) the title "Sayyid al-Ansar" (leader of the Ansar), and before his death people had begun calling him "Sayyid al-Muslimin" (leader of the Muslims).
Explanation & Benefits
Shaykh Adil Murshid et al.
(3) أبو الجَهْم: هو أحمد بن الحسين بن أحمد بن طَلاب المَشْفَراني، وإبراهيم بن يعقوب: هو الجُوْزَجاني، وأبو مُسهرٍ: هو عبد الأعلى بن مُسهِر الدمشقي. وقد جاء في خبر مرفوع تسميةُ رسول الله ﷺ أبيَّ بنَ كعب سيِّد الأنصار، وهو ما أخرجه ابن عساكر في "تاريخ دمشق" 7/ 335، والضياء المقدسي في "المنتقى من مسموعات مَرْو " (770) من حديث عمرو بن العاص، لكن إسناده ضعيف.
Note / Clarification: (3) "Abu al-Jahm" is Ahmad bin al-Husayn bin Ahmad bin Tallab al-Mashfarani, "Ibrahim bin Ya'qub" is al-Juzajani, and "Abu Mushir" is Abd al-A'la bin Mushir al-Dimashqi.
Important point: A marfu' report states that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) called Ubayy bin Ka'b "Sayyid al-Ansar" (the chief of the Ansar). Ibn Asakir recorded it in "Tarikh Dimashq" (7/ 335) and al-Diya' al-Maqdisi in "al-Muntaqa min Masmu'at Marw" (770) from the hadith of Amr bin al-As, but its chain is "da'if" (weak).
وأما تسمية أُبي بن كعب بسيِّد المسلمين فرُوي من قول عمر بن الخطاب كما أخرجه عنه ابن سعد 3/ 463، والبخاري في "الأدب المفرد" (476) وغيرهما بسند محتمل للتحسين.
Important point: As for calling Ubayy bin Ka'b "Sayyid al-Muslimin" (the chief of the Muslims), it is narrated as a statement of Umar bin al-Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him), as Ibn Sa'd (3/ 463), al-Bukhari in "al-Adab al-Mufrad" (476) and others recorded from him, with a chain that can possibly be graded "hasan".
كذلك وروي عن عُتَي السَّعْدي، قال: قدمت المدينة في يوم ريح وغبرة، وإذا الناسُ يموج بعضهم في بعض؟ فقالوا: أما أنت من أهل هذا البلد؟ قلت: لا، قالوا: مات اليوم سيد المسلمين أبيُّ بنُ كعب. أخرجه ابن سعد 3/ 465، وابن عساكر 7/ 340، وسنده صحيح.
Reference / Source: Likewise it is narrated from Utayy al-Sa'di, who said: I came to Madinah on a day of wind and dust, and saw the people surging into one another (crowding). They said: Are you not from this town? I said: No. They said: Today the chief of the Muslims, Ubayy bin Ka'b, has died. Ibn Sa'd (3/ 465) and Ibn Asakir (7/ 340) recorded it, and its chain is "sahih".
