لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ ص بِأَيِّ شَيْءٍ سَبَقْتَ الْأَنْبِيَاءَ وَ أَنْتَ بُعِثْتَ آخِرَهُمْ وَ خَاتَمَهُمْ قَالَ إِنِّي كُنْتُ أَوَّلَ مَنْ آمَنَ بِرَبِّي وَ أَوَّلَ مَنْ أَجَابَ حِينَ أَخَذَ اللَّهُ مِيثاقَ النَّبِيِّينَ وَ أَشْهَدَهُمْ عَلى أَنْفُسِهِمْ أَ لَسْتُ بِرَبِّكُمْ قالُوا بَلى فَكُنْتُ أَنَا أَوَّلَ نَبِيٍّ قَالَ بَلَى فَسَبَقْتُهُمْ بِالْإِقْرَارِ بِاللَّهِ.
English translationMuhammad Sarwar
6. A number of our people have narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from Ibn Mahbub from Salih b. Sahl from Abu ‘Abdallah (AS) who has said the following: “Certain persons from Quraysh asked the Messenger of Allah, ‘By what means did you excel the prophets and you were sent as the last of them as their seal?” The Messenger of Allah (SAW) said, “I was the first to believe in my Lord, and the first to answer Allah when He called the prophets to make a covenant and bear testimony against their own souls to acknowledge and answer positively when asked ‘Am I not your Lord?’ They all had answered, ‘Yes, You Are our Lord.’ I was the first prophet that said, “Yes, You are our Lord.” I, thus, excelled them in the acknowledgment of the Oneness of Allah”
