Muhammad b. Ibrahim b. Ishaq narrated to us. He said: Abu Sa`id al-Hasan b. `Ali al-Aduwi narrated to us. He said: Ahmad b. `Abdullah b. `Ammar al-Jarudi narrated to us. He said: Muhammad b. `Abdullah narrated to us from Abi’l Jarud from Abi’l Haytham from Anas b. Malik. He said:

The Messenger of Allah (s) said: Allah will raise a group of people with faces of light, upon seats of light, wearing garments of light, in the shade of the Throne, at the rank of the prophets – and they are not prophets; and at the rank of the martyrs – and they are not martyrs. So, a man said: Am I from them, O Messenger of Allah? He said: No. Another said: Am I from them, O Messenger of Allah? He said: No. It was said: Who are they, O Messenger of Allah? So, he placed his hand upon the head of `Ali and said: Him and his Shi`a.
