١٢٥٤ - حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَوْفٍ الْحِمْصِيُّ ثنا أَبُو صَالِحٍ ثنا مُعَاوِيَةُ بْنُ صَالِحٍ عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ سُوَيْدٍ عَنِ عَبْدِ الأَعْلَى بْنِ هِلالٍ الْمَكِيِّ عَنْ عِرْبَاضِ بْنِ سَارِيَةَ قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ: إِنِّي عِنْدَ اللَّهِ لَخَاتَمُ النَّبِيِّينَ، وَإِنَّ آدَمَ لَمُنْجَدِلٌ فِي طِينَتِهِ وَسَأُخْبِرُكُمْ عَنْ ذَلِكَ دَعْوَةُ أَبِي إِبْرَاهِيمَ «١» .
١٢٥٥ - حَدَّثَنَا عِصَامُ بْنُ رَوَّادٍ الْعَسْقَلانِيُّ ثنا آدَمُ عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ عَنِ الرَّبِيعِ عَنْ أَبِي الْعَالِيَةِ قَوْلُهُ: رَبَّنَا وَابْعَثْ فِيهِمْ رَسُولا مِنْهُمْ يَعْنِي أُمَّةَ مُحَمَّدٍ- صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ- فَقِيلَ لَهُ: قَدِ اسْتُجِيبَ لَكَ، وَهُوَ كَائِنٌ فِي آخِرِ الزَّمَانِ.
