Sahih al-Bukhari 4487 (Book 65, Hadith 14) #4275
The Testimony of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH)

SUMMARY: This hadith explains that Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) and his followers will be witnesses on the Day of Resurrection for Prophet Noah's nation, who will not be able to testify that they were warned.

Narrated Abu Sa'id Al-Khudri: Allah's Messenger said, "Noah will be called on the Day of Resurrection and he will say, Labbaik and Sa'daik, O my Lord!' Allah will say, 'Did you convey the Message?' Noah will say, 'Yes'. His nation will then be asked, 'Did he convey the Message to you?' They will say, 'No Warner came to us'. Then Allah will say (to Noah), 'Who will bear witness in your favor?' He will say, 'Muhammad and his followers. So they (ie Muslims) will testify that he conveyed the Message. And the Apostle (Muhammad) will be a witness over yourselves, and that is what is meant by the Statement of Allah "Thus We have made of you a just and the best nation that you may be witnesses over mankind and the Apostle (Muhammad) will be a witness over yourselves". (2:143)
حَدَّثَنَا يُوسُفُ بْنُ رَاشِدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا جَرِيرٌ، وَأَبُو أُسَامَةَ ـ وَاللَّفْظُ لِجَرِيرٍ ـ عَنِ الأَعْمَشِ، عَنْ أَبِي صَالِحٍ، وَقَالَ أَبُو أُسَامَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو صَالِحٍ، عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيِّ، قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ‏"‏ يُدْعَى نُوحٌ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ فَيَقُولُ لَبَّيْكَ وَسَعْدَيْكَ يَا رَبِّ‏.‏ فَيَقُولُ هَلْ بَلَّغْتَ فَيَقُولُ نَعَمْ‏.‏ فَيُقَالُ لأُمَّتِهِ هَلْ بَلَّغَكُمْ فَيَقُولُونَ مَا أَتَانَا مِنْ نَذِيرٍ‏.‏ فَيَقُولُ مَنْ يَشْهَدُ لَكَ فَيَقُولُ مُحَمَّدٌ وَأُمَّتُهُ‏.‏ فَتَشْهَدُونَ أَنَّهُ قَدْ بَلَّغَ ‏"‏‏.‏ ‏{‏وَيَكُونَ الرَّسُولُ عَلَيْكُمْ شَهِيدًا‏}‏ فَذَلِكَ قَوْلُهُ جَلَّ ذِكْرُهُ ‏{‏وَكَذَلِكَ جَعَلْنَاكُمْ أُمَّةً وَسَطًا لِتَكُونُوا شُهَدَاءَ عَلَى النَّاسِ وَيَكُونَ الرَّسُولُ عَلَيْكُمْ شَهِيدًا‏}‏ وَالْوَسَطُ الْعَدْلُ‏.‏

QUICK LESSONS:
Convey Allah’s message, spread knowledge and justice among mankind .

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith speaks about the importance of conveying Allah's message to others. On the Day of Resurrection, when people are asked if they were warned, those who did not receive a warning from a messenger will have no one to testify in their favor except for Prophet Muhammad and his followers. This is why Allah made Muslims a just and best nation so that they can be witnesses over mankind. It is important for us to spread Allah's message so that everyone can benefit from it on the Day of Judgment.
