Sahih al-Bukhari 3727 (Book 62, Hadith 74) #3557
The Early Adopters of Islam

SUMMARY: Sa'd bin Abi Waqqas was one of the earliest Muslims and remained a Muslim for seven days.

Narrated Sa'd bin Abi Waqqas: No man embraced Islam before the day on which I embraced Islam, and no doubt, I remained for seven days as one third of the then extant Muslims.
حَدَّثَنِي إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ مُوسَى، أَخْبَرَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي زَائِدَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا هَاشِمُ بْنُ هَاشِمِ بْنِ عُتْبَةَ بْنِ أَبِي وَقَّاصٍ، قَالَ سَمِعْتُ سَعِيدَ بْنَ الْمُسَيَّبِ، يَقُولُ سَمِعْتُ سَعْدَ بْنَ أَبِي وَقَّاصٍ، يَقُولُ مَا أَسْلَمَ أَحَدٌ إِلاَّ فِي الْيَوْمِ الَّذِي أَسْلَمْتُ فِيهِ، وَلَقَدْ مَكَثْتُ سَبْعَةَ أَيَّامٍ وَإِنِّي لَثُلُثُ الإِسْلاَمِ‏.‏ تَابَعَهُ أَبُو أُسَامَةَ حَدَّثَنَا هَاشِمٌ‏.‏

EXPLANATIONS:
Sa'd bin Abi Waqqas was one of the earliest people to embrace Islam, and he remained a Muslim for seven days. This hadith highlights the importance of faith in Allah and His teachings, as well as how early adopters can be rewarded with blessings from Allah. It also shows that even though there were only a few Muslims at first, they still held strong in their beliefs and kept their faith alive. This hadith is an example to all believers that no matter how small your group may be, you should never give up on your faith or lose hope in Allah's mercy.

The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ said “No man embraced Islam before the day on which I embraced Islam” which means that he was one of the first people to accept this religion and it is important for us to remember this when we are feeling discouraged or overwhelmed by our circumstances. We should take comfort in knowing that even if we are alone in our beliefs, Allah will always be with us and reward us for our dedication to Him.
