It is narrated from Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "On the Day of Resurrection the earth will be spread out for the majesty of the Most Merciful. Then no human being will have any place except where his feet are. Then I will be called first of all, and I will fall down in prostration. Then I will be given permission, so I will stand and say: O my Lord, this one - pointing to Jibril (peace be upon him), who will be on the right of the Most Merciful, and by Allah, Jibril will never have seen Him before that - informed me that You had sent him to me (as a Messenger)." He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "And Jibril will be silent, not speaking at all, until Allah Almighty says: He spoke the truth. Then I will be given permission to intercede, and I will say: O my Lord, these servants of Yours worshipped You in the far corners of the earth. So that is the 'Praiseworthy Station' (al-Maqam al-Mahmud)." This chain is sahih (authentic) on the condition of the two Shaykhs (Bukhari and Muslim), but they did not record it, while Yunus bin Yazid and Ma'mar bin Rashid narrated it from al-Zuhri as mursal.

Ali bin Husayn (Imam Zayn al-Abidin) narrates from a man of knowledge (whose name he did not mention) that on the Day of Resurrection the earth will be spread out; then he mentioned the hadith in the same way.
