Sahih al-Bukhari 2316 (Book 44, Hadith 3)
slapped me on my face.” The Prophet (ﷺ) asked who that was. He replied that he was one of the Ansar.
The Prophet (ﷺ) sent for him, and on his arrival, he asked him whether he had beaten the Jew. He (replied
in the affirmative and) said, “I heard him taking an oath in the market saying, ‘By Him Who gave
Moses superiority over all the human beings.’ I said, ‘O wicked man! (Has Allah given Moses
superiority) even over Muhammad I became furious and slapped him over his face.” The Prophet (ﷺ) said,
“Do not give a prophet superiority over another, for on the Day of Resurrection all the people will fall
unconscious and I will be the first to emerge from the earth, and will see Moses standing and holding
one of the legs of the Throne. I will not know whether Moses has fallen unconscious or the first
unconsciousness was sufficient for him.”
