Sunan Ibn Majah 4290 (Book 37, Hadith 191) #33646
The Last and First Nation

SUMMARY: The Prophet ﷺ is saying that his nation will be the last of all nations to come and the first to be judged.

It was narrated from Ibn 'Abbas that the Prophet said: "We are the last of the nations, and the first to be brought to account. It will be said: 'Where is the unlettered nation and its Prophet?’ So we are the last and the first".
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو سَلَمَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ إِيَاسٍ الْجُرَيْرِيِّ، عَنْ أَبِي نَضْرَةَ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ـ ـ قَالَ نَحْنُ آخِرُ الأُمَمِ وَأَوَّلُ مَنْ يُحَاسَبُ يُقَالُ أَيْنَ الأُمَّةُ الأُمِّيَّةُ وَنَبِيُّهَا فَنَحْنُ الآخِرُونَ الأَوَّلُونَ

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith speaks about how the Prophet's nation will be the last of all nations to come and also the first one to be judged. It is a reminder for us that we should always strive to do good deeds as we are accountable for our actions in this life and in the hereafter. We should remember that Allah knows everything we do and He will judge us accordingly. This hadith also teaches us about humility as it reminds us that even though we may think ourselves superior due to our knowledge or status, ultimately Allah is above all else and He will judge us according to His standards. We must always strive for righteousness so that when judgement day comes, we can stand proud before Allah knowing that we have done our best with what was given to us in this life.
