Sunan Ibn Majah 141 (Book) #37043
Friendship with Allah

SUMMARY: The Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) was taken as a close friend of Allah, just like Ibrahim (AS). On the Day of Resurrection, the Prophet's house and Ibrahim's house will be opposite each other with 'Abbas in between them.

It was narrated that 'Abdullah bin 'Amr said: "The Messenger of Allah said: 'Allah has taken me as a close friend (Khalil) as He took Ibrahim as a close friend. So my house and the house of Ibrahim will be opposite to one another on the Day of Resurrection, and 'Abbas will be in between us, a believer between two close friends'." (Maudu')
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْوَهَّابِ بْنُ الضَّحَّاكِ، حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ عَيَّاشٍ، عَنْ صَفْوَانَ بْنِ عَمْرٍو، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ جُبَيْرِ بْنِ نُفَيْرٍ، عَنْ كَثِيرِ بْنِ مُرَّةَ الْحَضْرَمِيِّ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو، قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ـ ـ ‏ "‏ إِنَّ اللَّهَ اتَّخَذَنِي خَلِيلاً كَمَا اتَّخَذَ إِبْرَاهِيمَ خَلِيلاً فَمَنْزِلِي وَمَنْزِلُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ فِي الْجَنَّةِ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ تِجَاهَيْنِ وَالْعَبَّاسُ بَيْنَنَا مُؤْمِنٌ بَيْنَ خَلِيلَيْنِ

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith speaks about the special relationship between Allah and His beloved Prophet Muhammad ﷺ. It is narrated that Abdullah bin Amr said that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said that Allah has taken him as a close friend, just like He took Ibrahim as a close friend. This means that their relationship is so strong and intimate, similar to two friends who are very close to each other. On the Day of Resurrection, their houses will be opposite each other with Abbas in between them. This shows us how much love and respect there is between these three people - Prophet Muhammad ﷺ , Abraham and Abbas - on this special day when all believers will be gathered together for judgement.
