Musnad Ahmad 3073

Simaak Abu Zumail al-Hanafi said: I heard Ibn ‘Abbas (رضي الله عنه) say: I heard The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) say: “Whoever among my ummah has two predecessors (in death) will enter Paradise." 'A'ishah said: May my father be sacrificed for you, what about the one who has one predecessor? He said: "And the one who has one predecessor, O blessed one.” She said: What about the one of your ummah who has no predecessor? He said: “I am the predecessor for my ummah; they will never suffer any calamity like my loss (my death)."
