It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him) that once some things from the people reached the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), so he ascended the pulpit and addressed the people, asking: "Who am I?" The people said, "You are the Messenger of Allah." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "I am Muhammad, son of Abdullah, son of Abdul Muttalib. Allah created the creatures and placed me among the best of them. Then Allah divided them into two groups and placed me in the best group. Then Allah created tribes and placed me in the best tribe. Then Allah determined dwellings and placed me in the best dwelling. Therefore, in terms of dwelling I am the best among you, and in terms of my own self I am the best among you."
