Hazrat Ismail bin Abi Khalid (may Allah have mercy on him) narrates that Hazrat Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) looked towards the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) and said: "O leader of the Arabs!" Upon this, the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "I am the leader of all the children of Adam, and I do not take pride in this. And your father will be the leader of the elders of Paradise."
