Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ الْبَرَاءَ قَالَ كَانَ أَوَّلَ مَنْ قَدِمَ الْمَدِينَةَ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مُصْعَبُ بْنُ عُمَيْرٍ وَابْنُ أُمِّ مَكْتُومٍ فَكَانُوا يُقْرِئُونَ النَّاسَ قَالَ ثُمَّ قَدِمَ بِلَالٌ وَسَعْدٌ وَعَمَّارُ بْنُ يَاسِرٍ ثُمَّ قَدِمَ عُمَرُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ تَعَالَى عَنْهُ فِي عِشْرِينَ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ثُمَّ قَدِمَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَمَا رَأَيْتُ أَهْلَ الْمَدِينَةِ فَرِحُوا بِشَيْءٍ فَرَحَهُمْ بِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ حَتَّى جَعَلَ الْإِمَاءُ يَقُلْنَ قَدِمَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ فَمَا قَدِمَ حَتَّى قَرَأْتُ سَبِّحْ اسْمَ رَبِّكَ الْأَعْلَى فِي سُوَرٍ مِنْ الْمُفَصَّلِ.
English Translation
Muhammad ibn Ja'far told us: Shu'bah told us, from Abu Ishaq, who said: I heard al-Bara' say: The first of the Companions of the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, to come to Medina was Mus'ab ibn Umayr and Ibn Umm Maktum, and they used to teach people the Qur'an. Then Bilal, Sa'd, and Ammar ibn Yasir came. Then Umar ibn al-Khattab, may Allah be pleased with him, came with twenty of the Companions of the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him. Then the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, came, and I never saw the people of Medina rejoice at anything as they rejoiced at the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him. Until the slave-girls began to say, "The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, has come!" He had not yet arrived when I had recited "Glorify the name of your Lord, the Most High" among the short chapters.
