It is narrated from Abdul Muttalib bin Rabee’ah that some people from the Ansar said to the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him):“We hear from your people, and those who say, say that the example of Muhammad is like that of a tree which grows in a field.”The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said:“O people! Who am I?”The people said:“You are the Messenger of Allah, peace be upon you.”He said:“I am Muhammad, son of Abdullah, son of Abdul Muttalib.”He says:“We had not heard the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) mention this lineage before.”Then he said:“Beware! Indeed, Allah created His creation and divided them into two groups, then He placed me in the best group. Then He made tribes from them, and He placed me in the best tribe. Thus, in terms of household I am the best among you, and in terms of self I am the best among you.”
