أَنْتُمُ الْيَوْمَ خَيْرُ أَهْلِ الأَرْضِ
. وَقَالَ جَابِرٌ لَوْ كُنْتُ أُبْصِرُ لأَرَيْتُكُمْ مَوْضِعَ الشَّجَرَةِ.
English translation
It has been narrated (through a different chain of transmitters) on the authority of Jabir who said:
We were one thousand and four hundred on the Day of Hudaibiya when the Prophet (ﷺ) said to us: Today you are the best people on the earth. And Jabir said: If I had the eyesight, I could show you the place of the tree.
