Hadith 27:132

Affan narrated to us, he said: Sulaym ibn Hayyan narrated to us, he said: Sa'id ibn Mina narrated to us, from Jabir ibn Abdullah, from the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him), who said: "My likeness and the likeness of the prophets is like a man who built a house, then he completed it and perfected it, except for the place of a brick. So people began to enter it and marvel at it, and they would say: 'If only this place for the brick were filled.'" The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "So I am that place of the brick; I have come and sealed the prophets."

حدثنا عفان قال ثنا سليم بن حيان قال ثنا سعيد بن ميناء عن جابر بن عبد الله عن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم قال مثلي ومثل الأنبياء كمثل رجل بنى دارا فأتمها وأكملها إلا موضع لبنة فجعل الناس يدخلونها ويتعجبون منها ويقولون لولا موضع اللبنة قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم فأنا موضع اللبنة جئت فختمت الأنبياء
