Ḥadīth | Ṭabarānī (الطبراني) tabarani:2724 حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدَانُ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ ثنا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ زَكَرِيَّا الْكُوفِيُّ ثنا عَلِيُّ بْنُ عَابِسٍ عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ عَنْ هُبَيْرَةَ بْنِ يَرِيمَ قَالَ خَطَبَ الْحَسَنُ فَقَالَ لَقَدْ فَارَقَكُمْ بِالْأَمْسِ رَجُلٌ مَا سَبَقَهُ الْأَوَّلُونَ بِعِلْمٍ وَلَا يُدْرِكُهُ الْآخِرُونَ إِنْ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ لَيَبْعَثُهُ الْمَبْعَثَ فَيُعْطِيهِ الرَّايَةَ جِبْرِيلُ عَنْ يَمِينِهِ وَمِيكَائِيلُ عَنْ يَسَارِهِ فَمَا يَرْجِعُ حَتَّى يَفْتَحَ اللهُ ﷻ لَهُ
English Translation
Hubayrah ibn Yarim said: Al-Hasan gave a sermon and said: "Yesterday there departed from you a man who was not preceded by the earlier ones in knowledge, nor will the later ones reach him. When the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) would send him on an expedition, he would give him the banner. Jibril was on his right and Mika'il on his left, and he would not return until Allah Most High granted him victory."
