حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ أَيُّوبَ، وَسُرَيْجُ بْنُ يُونُسَ، وَقُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، وَعَلِيُّ بْنُ حُجْرٍ، جَمِيعًا عَنْ إِسْمَاعِيلَ بْنِ جَعْفَرٍ، (قَالَ ابْنُ أَيُّوبَ حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ،) أَخْبَرَنِي الْعَلَاءُ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَتَى الْمَقْبُرَةَ فَقَالَ: «السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكُمْ دَارَ قَوْمٍ مُؤْمِنِينَ وَإِنَّا إِنْ شَاءَ اللَّهُ بِكُمْ لَاحِقُونَ وَدِدْتُ أَنَّا قَدْ رَأَيْنَا إِخْوَانَنَا».

قَالُوا أَوَلَسْنَا إِخْوَانَكَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَالَ: «أَنْتُمْ أَصْحَابِي وَإِخْوَانُنَا الَّذِينَ لَمْ يَأْتُوا بَعْدُ». فَقَالُوا: كَيْفَ تَعْرِفُ مَنْ لَمْ يَأْتِ بَعْدُ مِنْ أُمَّتِكَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ فَقَالَ: «أَرَأَيْتَ لَوْ أَنَّ رَجُلاً لَهُ خَيْلٌ غُرٌّ مُحَجَّلَةٌ بَيْنَ ظَهْرَىْ خَيْلٍ دُهْمٍ بُهْمٍ أَلَا يَعْرِفُ خَيْلَهُ».

قَالُوا: بَلَى يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ. قَالَ: «فَإِنَّهُمْ يَأْتُونَ غُرًّا مُحَجَّلِينَ مِنَ الْوُضُوءِ وَأَنَا فَرَطُهُمْ عَلَى الْحَوْضِ أَلَا لَيُذَادَنَّ رِجَالٌ عَنْ حَوْضِي كَمَا يُذَادُ الْبَعِيرُ الضَّالُّ أُنَادِيهِمْ أَلَا هَلُمَّ. فَيُقَالُ إِنَّهُمْ قَدْ بَدَّلُوا بَعْدَكَ. فَأَقُولُ سُحْقًا سُحْقًا»

The Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) came to the graveyard and said: “Peace be upon you! The abode of the believing people and we, if God so wills, are about to join you. I love to see my brothers.”

They (the hearers) said: Aren’t we your brothers, O Messenger of Allah? He said: You are my companions, and our brothers are those who have, so far, not come into the world.

They said: Messenger of Allah, how would you recognise those persons of your Ummah who have not yet been born? He said: Supposing a man had horses with white blazes on foreheads and legs among horses which were all black, tell me, would he not recognise his own horses?

They said: Certainly, O Messenger of Allah. He said: They would come with white faces and arms and legs owing to ablution, and I would arrive at the Cistern before them. Some people would be driven away from my Cistern as the stray camel is driven away. I would call out: Come, come.

Then it would be said (to me): These people changed themselves after you, and I would say: Be off, be off.

মানসূর ইবনু আবী মুবাহিম এবং মুহাম্মাদ ইবনু জাফার ইবনু যিয়াদ (রহঃ) ..... আবূ হুরাইরাহ (রাযিঃ) বলেন যে, রাসূলুল্লাহ সাল্লাল্লাহু আলাইহি ওয়া সাল্লাম কে প্রশ্ন করা হলো, সর্বোত্তম আমল কোনটি?

তিনি বললেন, মহিমান্বিত আল্লাহর প্রতি ঈমান আনা। আবার জিজ্ঞেস করা হলো, তারপর কোনটি? তিনি বললেন, আল্লাহর রাস্তায় জিহাদ করা। প্রশ্ন করা হলো, তারপর কোনটি?

তিনি বললেন, যে হজ্জ কবুল হয়। মুহাম্মাদ ইবনু জাফরের রিওয়ায়াতে আছে। তিনি বললেন, আল্লাহ ও তার রাসূল সাল্লাল্লাহু আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম এর প্রতি ঈমান আনা। মুহাম্মাদ ইবনু রাফি ও আবদ ইবনু হুমায়দ (রহঃ) ..... যুহরী সূত্রেও এ সনদে অনুরূপ হাদীস বর্ণনা করেছেন।
