English

Ibn Muhayriz narrated: I said to Abu Jumu‘ah, a man from the companions: “Tell us a hadith you heard from the Prophet (ﷺ).” He said: “Yes, I will tell you a good hadith. We had lunch with the Prophet (ﷺ), and Abu Ubaydah ibn al-Jarrah was with us. He said: ‘O Messenger of Allah, is anyone 1 better than us? We embraced Islam and strove with you.’ He said: ‘Yes, a people who will come after you, believing in me without seeing me.’” [Narrated by Ahmad and Ad-Darimi] Razeen narrated from Abu Ubaydah, from his statement: “O Messenger of Allah, is anyone better than us,” to the end.
