Amr ibn Qays (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: “We are the last 1 and the first on the Day of Resurrection. I say, without boasting: Ibrahim is the Friend of Allah, Musa is the Chosen of Allah, and I am the Beloved of Allah. The Banner of Praise on the Day of Resurrection is with me. Allah promised me for my nation and protected them from three things: He will not encompass them with famine, nor eradicate them with an enemy, nor unite them upon misguidance.”
