Volume 8, Book 76, Number 524:
Narrated Abu Huraira:
Two men, a Muslim and a Jew, abused each other. The Muslim said, “By Him Who gave superior –
ity to Muhammad over all the people.” On that, the Jew said, “By Him Who gave superiority to Moses
over all the people.” The Muslim became furious at that and slapped the Jew in the face. The Jew
went to Allah’s Apostle and informed him of what had happened between him and the Muslim. Al –
lah’s Apostle said, “Don’t give me superiority over Moses, for the people will fall unconscious on the
Day of Resurrection and I will be the first to gain consciousness, and behold ! Moses will be there
holding the side of Allah’s Throne. I will not know whether Moses has been among those people who
have become unconscious and then has regained consciousness before me, or has been among those
exempted by Allah from falling unconscious.”

Volume 8, Book 76, Number 516:
Narrated ‘Aisha:
(the wife of the Prophet) When Allah’s Apostle was in good health, he used to say, “No prophet’s
soul is ever captured unless he is shown his place in Paradise and given the option (to die or
survive).” So when the death of the Prophet approached and his head was on my thigh, he became
unconscious for a while and then he came to his senses and fixed his eyes on the ceiling and said, “O
Allah (with) the highest companions.” (See Qur’an 4:69). I said’ “Hence he is not going to choose us.”
And I came to know that it was the application of the narration which he (the Prophet) used to nar –
rate to us. And that was the last statement of the Prophet (before his death) i.e., “O Allah! With the
highest companions.” (See Qur’an 4:69)
Volume 8, Book 76, Number 517:
Narrated ‘Aisha:
There was a leather or wood container full of water in front of Allah’s Apostle (at the time of his
death). He would put his hand into the water and rub his face with it, saying, “None has the right to
be worshipped but Allah! No doubt, death has its stupors.” Then he raised his hand and started say –
ing, “(O Allah!) with the highest companions.” (See Qur’an 4:69) (and kept on saying it) till he ex –
pired and his hand dropped.”

The Prophet said, “He who lets the people hear of his good deeds intentionally, to win their praise,

things in public to show off and win the praise of the people, Allah will disclose his real intention
(and humiliate him).
