Hadith 27:199

Ahmad ibn Ishaq narrated to us, he said: Wuhayb narrated to us, from ‘Amr ibn Yahya, from his father, from Abu Sa’id, that a man from the Ansar heard a man from the Jews while he was in the market saying: "By Him who chose Moses, peace be upon him, over mankind." So he struck his face and said: "O wicked one! Is [Moses] above Abu al-Qasim [the Prophet]?" The Jew went to the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, and said: "O Abu al-Qasim, so-and-so struck my face." He sent for him and called him, then said: "Why did you strike his face?" He said: "I passed by him in the market and heard him saying: 'By Him who chose Moses over mankind,' so a fit of anger seized me and I struck his face." The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said: "Do not prefer some prophets over others, for the people will fall unconscious on the Day of Resurrection. I will be the first to raise my head, and behold, I will see Moses holding onto one of the pillars of the Throne. I do not know if he fell unconscious with those who fell unconscious and then recovered before me, or if he was exempted due to his first unconsciousness," or he said: "His first unconsciousness sufficed him."

حدثنا أحمد بن إسحاق قال ثنا وهيب عن عمرو بن يحيى عن أبيه عن أبي سعيد أن رجلا من الأنصار سمع رجلا من اليهود وهو في السوق وهو يقول والذي اصطفى موسى عليه السلام على البشر فضرب وجهه أي خبيث أعلى أبي القاسم فانطلق اليهودي إلى رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم فقال يا أبا القاسم ضرب وجهي فلان فأرسل إليه فدعاه فقال لم ضربت وجهه فقال إني مررت به في السوق فسمعته يقول والذي اصطفى موسى على البشر فأخذتني غضبة فضربت وجهه فقال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم لا تخيروا بين الأنبياء فإن الناس يصعقون يوم القيامة فأرفع رأسي فإذا أنا بموسى آخذ بقائمة من قوائم العرش فلا أدري أصعق ممن صعق فأفاق قبلي أو حوسب بصعقته الأولى أو قال كفته صعقته الأولى
