A Jewish man said, "By the One who chose Musa above all people!" A Muslim man raised his hand and slapped the Jew across the face. The Jew went to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and informed him of what had happened.The Prophet ﷺ said, "Do not give me preference over Musa. On the Day of Resurrection, all people will fall unconscious, and I will be the first to recover. But I will find Musa already grasping the side of the Throne. I do not know whether he was among those who fell unconscious and recovered before me, or whether he was among those whom Allah exempted."
حدثنا حجاج بن أبي يعقوب ومحمد بن يحيى بن فارس قالا حدثنا يعقوب قال حدثنا أبي عن ابن شهاب عن أبي سلمة بن عبد الرحمن وعبد الرحمن الأعرج
قال رجل من اليهود والذي اصطفى موسى فرفع المسلم يده فلطم وجه اليهودي فذهب اليهودي إلى رسول الله ﷺ فأخبره فقال النبي ﷺ لا تخيروني على موسى فإن الناس يصعقون فأكون أول من يفيق فإذا موسى باطش في جانب العرش فلا أدري أكان ممن صعق فأفاق قبلي أو كان ممن استثنى الله عز وجل
