Syedna Abu Saeed Khudri (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said from the pulpit: What is the matter with those people who say that the kinship of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) will not benefit his people in any way? Why not, by Allah, my kinship will be joined in this world and the Hereafter. O people! I will precede you at the Hawd (the Pond), so when you come there, at that moment a man will say: O Messenger of Allah! I am so-and-so, and his brother will say: I am so-and-so, son of so-and-so. You (peace and blessings be upon him) will say: I have recognized the lineage, but after me you invented new matters and turned back on your heels.
