388. From him, from Abdul Rahmaan Bin Abu Najraan, from Abu Haroun Al-Makfouf, who has narrated the following: Whenever Abu Abdullah (asws) mentioned the Rasool Allah (saww), he would say: ‘By my (asws) father (asws), and my (asws) mother (as), and by my (asws) people, and my (asws) relatives! It is strange of the Arabs, how they have not carried us (asws) upon their heads, and Allah (azwj) Mighty and Majestic is Saying in His (azwj) Book: “[3:103] and you were on the brink of a pit of fire, then He saved you from it”, so it was by the Rasool Allah (saww) that they were saved’.

Translation: Muhammad Sarwar — attributed by Thaqalayn·The Arabic above is the original.
