Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا حَسَنُ بْنُ مُوسَى حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ عَنْ ثَابِتٍ الْبُنَانِيِّ عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ أَنَّ رَجُلًا قَالَ يَا مُحَمَّدُ يَا سَيِّدَنَا وَابْنَ سَيِّدِنَا وَخَيْرَنَا وَابْنَ خَيْرِنَا فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَا أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ عَلَيْكُمْ بِتَقْوَاكُمْ وَلَا يَسْتَهْوِيَنَّكُمْ الشَّيْطَانُ أَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ وَرَسُولُهُ وَاللَّهِ مَا أُحِبُّ أَنْ تَرْفَعُونِي فَوْقَ مَنْزِلَتِي الَّتِي أَنْزَلَنِي اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ.
English Translation
Hasan ibn Musa told us, Hammad ibn Salamah told us, from Thabit al-Bunani, from Anas ibn Malik, that a man said, "O Muhammad, O our master and son of our master, our best one and son of our best one." The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said, "O people, hold fast to your fear of Allah, and do not let Satan tempt you. I am Muhammad son of Abdullah, the servant of Allah and His Messenger. By Allah, I do not wish that you raise me above the station in which Allah, Mighty and Majestic, has placed me."
