حَدَّثَنَا حَجَّاجُ بْنُ أَبِي يَعْقُوبَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى بْنِ فَارِسٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَا:‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنَا يَعْقُوبُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَعَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ الْأَعْرَجِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ قَالَ رَجُلٌ مِنَ الْيَهُودِ:‏‏‏‏ وَالَّذِي اصْطَفَى مُوسَى، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَرَفَعَ الْمُسْلِمُ يَدَهُ فَلَطَمَ وَجْهَ الْيَهُودِيِّ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَذَهَبَ الْيَهُودِيُّ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَأَخْبَرَهُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ:‏‏‏‏ لَا تُخَيِّرُونِي عَلَى مُوسَى، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَإِنَّ النَّاسَ يُصْعَقُونَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَأَكُونُ أَوَّلَ مَنْ يُفِيقُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَإِذَا مُوسَى بَاطِشٌ فِي جَانِبِ الْعَرْشِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَلَا أَدْرِي أَكَانَ مِمَّنْ صَعِقَ فَأَفَاقَ قَبْلِي، ‏‏‏‏‏‏أَوْ كَانَ مِمَّنْ اسْتَثْنَى اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُد:‏‏‏‏ وَحَدِيثُ ابْنِ يَحْيَى أَتَمُّ.

A man from among the Jews said: By him who chose Moses above the universe. So a Muslim raised his hand and slapped the Jew on his face. The Jew went to the Messenger of Allah صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم and informed him. The Prophet صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم said: Do not make me superior to Moses, for mankind (on the Day of Resurrection) will swoon and I will be the know whether he was among those who swooned and had recovered before me, or he was among those of whom Allah had made an exception. Abu Dawud said: The tradition of Ibn yahya is more perfect.
