Hadith No: 4
Ibn Khuzaymah - Kitab al-Tawhid wa-Ithbat Sifat al-Rabb 'Azza wa-Jall
Chapter on the Mention of the Evidence that the Intercession We Described as the First of the Intercessions
is the one by which the Prophet (peace be upon him and his holy progeny) intercedes to let Allah judge between His creation. At that time, Allah 'Azza wa-Jall will command him
to admit from his Ummah those who have no accountability into Paradise from the right gate.
Thus, he will be the first of the people to enter Paradise from among the believers.

- Muhammad ibn Abdullah ibn Abd al-Hakam said: My father and Shu'aib ibn al-Layth narrated to me, and Yunus ibn Abd al-A'la said: Yahya, meaning Ibn Abdullah ibn Bakir, narrated to us, from al-Layth, from Ubaydullah ibn Abi Ja'far, who said: I heard Hamzah ibn Abdullah say: I heard Abdullah ibn Umar say: Abdullah ibn Umar say: The Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him and his holy progeny) said: "A man will continue to ask others for help until he comes on the Day of Resurrection with not a scrap of flesh on his face."
And he said: "The sun will draw near until the sweat reaches half of the ear, and while they are in this state, they will seek assistance from Adam (peace be upon him), who will say: 'I am not the one for that,' then from Musa (peace be upon him), who will say likewise, and then from Muhammad (peace be upon him and his holy progeny), who will intercede to let Allah judge between His creation, and he will walk until he takes hold of the latch of Paradise. On that day, Allah will raise him to a Praiseworthy Station, and all the people of the gathering will praise him." This is the narration of Yunus.
