Sayyiduna Jabir bin Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: I have been given five things which were not given to any prophet before me. The first is that I have been helped by instilling fear (in the enemy) from a distance of one month’s journey. The second is that the entire earth has been made a place of prayer and a means of purification for me, so wherever any man of my ummah finds the time for prayer, he should pray there. The third is that war booty has been made lawful for me. The fourth is that the previous prophets were sent only to their own people, but I have been sent to all mankind. The fifth is that I have been granted intercession.
