Saheeh Seerah Al Albaanee English

heaven from the wrath He ‏(تعالى)‏ has upon them.❞ They remained silent and no one
answered him. So he ﷺ repeated what he had said, but no one answered. So he
deny! said: ❝You ﷺ repeated it the third time, but no one answered. So he ﷺ
Whereas, by Allaah, I am al-Ḥaashir (gatherer) and I am al-`Aaqib (the last, after
whom there will be no Prophet or Messenger), and I am the chosen Prophet, whether
you believe or deny.❞ The Prophet ﷺ and I then turned to leave. As we were about
to exit, a man from behind us called: “(Stay where) you are, O Muḥammad!” The man
walked towards us and said: “O tribe of Jew! What sort of man am I?” They replied: ‘By
Allaah, we do not know of any other man among us who knows the Book of Allaah
(Taurah) better than you, nor anyone more knowledgeable than you, and your father
before you (was the same), and your grandfather before your father (was the same).’
The man said: “Then, by Allaah, I testify for him (the Prophet ‏(ﷺ that he is Allaah’s
Messenger that you find in the Taurah.” They said: ‘You tell a lie!’ Then they retracted
(the good things) that they had said earlier about him, and began saying bad things
about him. The Prophet ﷺ said: ❝You tell a lie! What you say will not be accepted.
First you praised him with many virtues, and then when he believes (in me), you say
what you say now! What you say will not be accepted.❞ Then the three of us, the
Prophet ‏,ﷺ myself and ‘Abdullaah Ibn Salaam, exited. Allaah then revealed:
‏﴿ق ل ‏ُأَرَأَي ت م ‏ُإِنُكَانَُمِن ‏ُعِندُِاللَّهُِوَكَفَر مت ‏ُبِهُِوَشَهِدَُشَاهِد ‏ُمِّنُبَنِ‏ ‏ُإِس رَائِيلَُعَلَىُمِث لِهُِفَآمَنَُوَاس تَك بَر مت ُُۖ
إِنَُّاللَّهَُّلَ‏ ‏ُيَه دِيُال قَو مَُالظَّالِمِنيَ﴾‏
{Say: “Tell me! If this (Qur’aan) is from Allaah, and you deny it, and a witness from
among the Children of Israa’eel (`Abdullaah Ibn Salaam) testifies that this Qur’aan is
from Allaah [like the Taurah], so he believed (embraced Islaam) while you are too
proud (to believe).” Verily! Allaah guides not the people who are Ẓhaalimoon
(polytheists, disbelievers and wrong-doing).} [Surah al-Aḥqaaf (46): 10] 121
121 Musnad Aḥmad (23984) and the wording is his; al-Ḥaakim in “al-Mustadrak” (5756) and said: “It is “Ṣaḥeeḥ” as
per the condition of al-Bukhaaree and Muslim”, and al-Dhahabee agreed with him. But it is only as per the
condition of Imaam Muslim only, as al-Bukhaaree did not report from the route of Ṣafwaan Ibn `Amr except in “al-
Adab al-Mufrad”.
[TN: The following are the narrations which Ibn Katheer mentioned in the chapter of the Prophet’s emigration,
and to which Shaikh al-Albaanee referred to in the earlier comment

him on the same camel. Abu Bakr was an elderly man known to the people, while Allaah’s Messenger ﷺ was a
