Mention of the accounts of the leader of the Messengers (peace and blessings be upon him)

It is narrated from the Companions (may Allah be pleased with them) of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) that they said: O Messenger of Allah! Tell us about yourself. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "I am the supplication of my father Ibrahim (peace be upon him) and the glad tidings of Isa (peace be upon him), and my mother saw, while she was pregnant with me, that a light came out of her by which Busra was illuminated." And Busra is in the land of Syria.
Imam al-Hakim says that Khalid bin Ma'dan is among the senior Tabi'in; he kept the company of Mu'adh bin Jabal (may Allah be pleased with him) and the Companions after him. So when he narrates a hadith with a chain from the Companions, it has an authentic chain, even though the two Shaykhs did not record it.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Irbad bin Sariyah al-Sulami (may Allah be pleased with him); he said that he heard the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) say: "I was, with Allah, in the Mother of the Book (the Preserved Tablet), the Seal of the Prophets even when Adam (peace be upon him) was still lying kneaded in his clay. And I will tell you its explanation: I am the supplication of my father Ibrahim (peace be upon him), the glad tidings Isa (peace be upon him) gave to his people, and the dream of my mother, who saw that a light came out of her by which the palaces of Syria were illuminated."
This hadith has an authentic chain and is a supporting witness for the first hadith.

Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) narrates from his father that Abd al-Muttalib related: We went to Yemen on the winter journey, and I stayed with a scholar of the Jews. There a man from the people of the Zabur said to me: O Abd al-Muttalib! Will you permit me to look at those parts of your body that are not 'awrah? He said: Then he opened one of my nostrils and looked, then looked at the other, and said: I bear witness that in one of your hands there is kingship and in the other prophethood, and I see this prophethood in the Banu Zuhrah; how can that be? I said: I do not know. He asked: Do you have a "sha'ah", meaning a wife? I said: Not today. He said: When you return, marry one of these women. So Abd al-Muttalib returned to Makkah and married Halah bint Wahb bin Abd Manaf, from whom Hamzah and Safiyyah were born, and Abdullah bin Abd al-Muttalib married Aminah bint Wahb, from whom the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) was born. When Abdullah married Aminah, Quraysh said: Abdullah has "falaja", meaning prevailed, over his father.
