حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ يَحْيَى، أَخْبَرَنَا هُشَيْمٌ، عَنْ سَيَّارٍ، عَنْ يَزِيدَ الْفَقِيرِ، عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ الأَنْصَارِيِّ

قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «أُعْطِيتُ خَمْسًا لَمْ يُعْطَهُنَّ أَحَدٌ قَبْلِي كَانَ كُلُّ نَبِيٍّ يُبْعَثُ إِلَى قَوْمِهِ خَاصَّةً وَبُعِثْتُ إِلَى كُلِّ أَحْمَرَ وَأَسْوَدَ وَأُحِلَّتْ لِيَ الْغَنَائِمُ وَلَمْ تُحَلَّ لأَحَدٍ قَبْلِي وَجُعِلَتْ لِيَ الأَرْضُ طَيِّبَةً طَهُورًا وَمَسْجِدًا فَأَيُّمَا رَجُلٍ أَدْرَكَتْهُ الصَّلَاةُ صَلَّى حَيْثُ كَانَ وَنُصِرْتُ بِالرُّعْبِ بَيْنَ يَدَىْ مَسِيرَةِ شَهْرٍ وَأُعْطِيتُ الشَّفَاعَةَ»

The Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) said: I have been conferred upon five (things) which were not granted to anyone before me (and these are): Every apostle wassent particularly to his own people, whereas I have been sent to all the red and the black the spoils of war have been made lawful for me, and these were never made lawful to anyone before me, and the earth has been made sacred and pure and mosque for me, so whenever the time of prayer comes for any one of you he should pray whenever he is, and I have been supported by awe (by which the enemy is overwhelmed) from the distance (which one takes) one month to cover and I have been granted intercession.

Sahih Muslim 521a, Book 5, The Book of Mosques and Places of Prayer, Hadith 3. 1 min read

What it means

The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) informed that Allah granted him five privileges that none of the prophets before him had been granted. First: I was made victorious through terror that was cast into my enemies' hearts, although a distance of one month's journey separated us. Second: The earth has been made for us a place of worship where we can pray wherever we are,

and it has been made for us a means of purification through dust when water is not an option. Third: The spoils of war, which Muslims take during their war against the disbelievers, have been made lawful for us. Fourth: I have been granted the major intercession to relieve people of the horror of the Day of Judgment. Fifth: "I have been sent to all creation": mankind and jinn, unlike the prophets before him who were sent to their people only.

What it teaches

  • It is permissible for one to enumerate Allah's favors on him by way of acknowledgment and expressing gratitude to Allah.
  • The favor that Allah Almighty has bestowed upon this Ummah and its Prophet by granting them these privileges.
  • It is obligatory to offer the prayer in its due time, whatever the case is, fulfilling its conditions, pillars, and obligatory acts according to one's ability.
  • The intercession that has been granted to the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) exclusively apart from other prophets has more than one type, including his intercession for people to begin the judgment between them, his intercession for the people of Paradise to be admitted to Paradise, and his special intercession for his uncle Abu Tālib to alleviate the fire for him, not to be brought out thereof because he died as a disbeliever.
  • Many other privileges have been granted to the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) and were not mentioned in this Hadīth, some of which are: He was granted succinct speech; he was the seal of prophets; our rows have been made like those of the angels, in addition to other privileges.
