٥٤٩١ - وَعَنْ أَبِي ذَرِّ (رضي الله عنه) قَالَ : قُلْتُ: يَا رَسُوْلَ اللهِ! أَيُّ الْأَنْبِيَاءِ كَانَ أَوَّلُ؟ قَالَ: «آدَمُ» قُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ! وَنَبِيٌّ كَانَ؟ قَالَ: «نَعَمْ، نَبِيٌّ مُكَلَّمْ قُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ كَمْ الْمُرْسَلُونَ؟ قَالَ: «ثَلَاثُ مِائَةٍ وَبِضْعَةَ عَشَرَ جَمَّا غَفِيرًا». وَفِي رِوَايَةٍ عَنْ أَبِي أُمَامَةَ: قَالَ أَبُوْ ذَرَّ: قُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ كَمْ وَفَاءُ عِدَّةِ الأَنْبِيَاءِ؟ قَالَ: «مِائَةُ أَلْفٍ وَأَرْبَعَةٌ وَعِشْرُونَ أَلْفًا، الرُّسُلُ مِنْ ذَلِكَ ثَلاثُ مِائَةٍ وَخَمْسَةَ عَشَرَ جَمَّا غَفِيرًا». رَوَاهُ أَحْمَدُ.

Commentary and footnotes (2)

Note 1

a prophet who was spoken to

(1) His statement: “a prophet who was spoken to”: That is, not only was he a prophet, but a prophet who was spoken to and received scriptures. (As stated in Al-Mirqat)

Note 2

One hundred twenty-four thousand, etc.

(2) His statement: “One hundred twenty-four thousand, etc.”: Although the number in this Hadith is stated definitively, it is not conclusive. Belief in the prophets and messengers should be general without specifying a number, so as not to exclude any of them or include anyone who is not among them. (As stated in Al-Mirqat and the commentary on An-Nasafiyyah’s Aqaid)
